My dad was a coal-man. Hope it's a full bag. He'd have rocked at this

So was my Grandfather DT, and my old fella did a bit in the school holidays to help him out, 100 weight bags then and heavier if they were wet, none of this 25kg nonsense :-)
Kids at infant school used to say my dad will have your dad and similar. I used to ask what does he do because mine runs up and down folks' ginnels with a hundred weight of coal on his back. Unless he's a bull wrestler or lion tamer he might be in a spot of trouble

The old guy down my road still talks about my Grandfather taking all the local kids to the beach in the 50's on the back of the Coal wagon, imagine the Health and Safety implications, 50 kids, a flat bed and coal dust, brilliant :-)
Standard. I fell off the back of a milk float when I was 15 in the late 70's. I got a bottle of gold top and a day off on the promise I wouldn't tell my mum what happened
