I still make Anzac biscuits but I always make them at Easter because my mother made them at Easter.

Most of us will remember the game of 'Pitch & Toss' that was played outside the Miners Institute at the 'A' Pit that is now illegal to play.

It is also illegal to play in New Zealand except on ANZAC day :-
