I got a kit from them delivered, and GALMI for
the fitting. Less professional, but somewhat cheaper
all round.

We were somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the
drugs began to take hold. I remember jgh <jgh(a)wizmail.org> saying

Got any walls up yet, or is it still just one big hole?

But yes, if one's doing a new build, it seems ridiculous to be
thinking of these other solutions rather than just a full-on cellar.
Go with the French approach where the garages form part of the cellar
space and you don't even need a huge US-style footprint for
cellar+garages+living space.

Still the same. Only I've chomped threw a few more bottles of wine
without replenishing the stocks. Will have to get to winelibrary.com
