Did you know that JEN's uncle was a coal miner in Britain? That's when we had a coal industry that is, which we don't anymore. "But," you cry, "coal was for heating and electricity, etc., and we've still got them, so we must still have a coal industry!"
No, we still have an energy, or power industry, which does essentially the same thing without actually using British coal, so we don't have a home-grown coal industry any longer. H'mm, seems I've read a similar 'discussion' fairly recently. Now if only I could recall where. Any ideas anybody?
Cheer up, Jen - we'll get around to ogling you in a moment. Honest.

(And no, I don't have the faintest clue what Jennifer's uncle did for a living.)
