Even when naked flame contrivances were banned through the country,the Doctor Pit at Bedlington remained a "Naked flame lamp" mine,so Binks' supplied the
Calcium Carbinate powder....only thing was....it was more deadly in kids' hands than tabs!!......I nearly blew the aad coal-hoose door of it's hinges one day,during
