She and her partner Nigel Musgrave, a builder, are building a weaving shed and shop for Clare. It will also sell work by other local craftsmen. They are running behind schedule because the very wet summer of 2012 is delaying the building work. At the opening ceremony for the shop, Clare surprises Nigel: she has bought him a vintage tractor as a present for all his hard work. In Carleton-in-Airedale, goat farmer Stephen Akrigg is expanding his herd and is planning to make a new type of smoked cheese with the extra milk. He gets advice from a friend and local restaurant owner Ian Ackroyd and then tests two possible flavours on the members of a rock band that he plays in. He now has to persuade local chefs to use his cheese in their dishes. He goes to Rudding Park, a hotel near Harrogate, and discusses his cheese with head chef Paul Mackie. Other local chefs are similarly impressed. Adrian goes to a meeting of the Wensleydale Young Farmers' Club in Leyburn and helps with the judging. Written by Anonymous See less
