Ready for the big dig

In my absence, Paddy had a meeting at the farm with the planners regarding cheese caves. I think I've mentioned before that six feet underground maintains constant cheese temperature, so it was worth investigating the practicalities of digging a royal cheese batcave. They're up for it. "In principle," they said, it was "a justifiable farm business diversification", and something they felt they could support. Hooray! All systems go.
