Satellite Imagery Sheds New Light On Region

The striking new map based on revolutionary satellite technology

Scientists from the Anglo Regional Space Executive have been pouring over the first images taken by the recently launched Geo-stationary Foodosat. GSF was designed by local rocket scientists in year 9 at Bideford College working in collaboration with engineers from the Weare Gifford Madasahattar Institute. Part of the satellites payload was a sophisticated geo-imaging device designed specifically to search for hidden deposits of Cheese, Angel Delight & Custard. Made from egg boxes and a 2nd hand Kodak digi-cam the imaging device has been re-calibrated to pick up light in the infra-yellow & pink wavelengths. For many years local folklore has hinted at these rich seams of after dinner treats but prospectors have never foundhard evidence. Until now that is. Team leader of the project & College caretaker Dr Patrick Moorish said that the initial results were beyond everyones wildest expectations. “I av to admit that uss did reckon that uss might see a trace of the odd pasty or sandwhich round Woolsery way but not ought like this. Tiz proper viddy loike. Mazin really”.
Now that the findings have been made public some local residents fear a gold rush of 1848 California-esque proportions. Baxworthy Corner pensioner Bridget Edworthysaid ” Oi av seen incomers sniffin’ around the field drekly opposite an they do look up to no good they do. One of um had one o they mental detectors an tuther ad a fork. Up to no good um was, no good at all.” Porridge District Council environment officer Brian Brianson offered words of comfort for all those with concerns about Cheese mining & Angel Delight exploitation. “We are already rolling out an action plan designed to protect all local residents & our beautiful landscape. No one will be nicking our Cheese that’s for sure. Over my dead body.”
