Summary

From coalman to city gent. That’s the transition performed daily by 22 year old Derek Nairn. After humping hundredweights of nutty-slack, Derek dons a salt and pepper suit in true city style to meet the local big businessmen and sell black gold to them in the manner to which they are accustomed.
