Aching bones.

This poor old thing was back of Ipswich in the suburb of Blackstone. What can I say, you can feel it in your bones. On some more consideration, it is quite close to the new mining museum and certainly on the West Moreton coal field. There were mines all around, so I think it was an old miner’s cottage. Makes me think that the title is even more apt. After a day digging out coal by hand in an underground mine of yesteryear, aching bones would have been the order of the day.
