James Smith [17] [Temporary Gallery]
Hello my name is James Smith. I am 41 years old and I work down in the Spittal Mine. I have been given this afternoon off work to join in the World War 2 party. (It is to celebrate the end of the War).
I am dressed in my best shabby suit also have my black mining boots on. I hitched a ride on a horse to the beach from William Jones who owns the tool shop.
Mr Jones struggled to understand my Russian accent but got enough to give me a ride to beach, on the way he noticed my axe with an oak handle on it. I arrived at the beach and there were lots of of the people and no more fighting, everybody was happy having fun and cheering when it got dark the sky lit up with fireworks.
