This reads like an Onion article, but this guy is completely serious. And the largest newspaper in Arizona printed this:

Turns out, these miners were at a pub in Cwmbach, Aberdare.

If Twp Thomas had read that, he'd probably be complaining that the word 'Blacklisted' is in it

He probably shouldn’t have put his email address at the bottom of the article too.

The creatures outside looked from pig to man, and from man to pig, and from pig to man again; but already it was impossible to say which was which.

He hasn’t replied to me yet, anyway. Either he’s busy or he didn’t enjoy the Al Jolson song I sent him?

Industry has vanished sadly Loh, there is one big factory and that is the former Aberdare cables which became Pirelli cables and is now owned by Prysmian. I worked there for 14 years once upon a time. I think the Cynon Valley at one time had over 50 pits.

Like every town now - town centres dying, chock full of card shops, nail bars and vape stores whilst a mile away there are the supermarkets/retail outlets.

You know, I look at the old photographs of the 38th Division marching to the Somme and off the back of that I think this isn’t the world their grandchildren were meant to inherit.

Three times I was arrested during the Miners’ Strike, the last time the Magistrate told me “I’m sure you’d like to see yourself as a martyr, but boy nothing you have said or done has made the slightest bit of difference. Nobody is going to care if I send you to gaol apart from your poor Mother.”

What a load of bollocks. They are coal miners having a well earned beer.

I could understand a bit more if it was a picture of the guys in the 'Black and White Minstrel' show.
