    If I dig down into my garden and find gold – is it mine? Alternatively can I bill Virgin Atlantic for flying over my house at 30,000 feet.

    Just one of them random thoughts

    All the way.

    You own a corresponding plot in New Zealand and, once a month, some of the Moon

    None. You don’t even own your land, you hold it in fee simple from the Queen :p

    If I found gold I think I’d keep it quietly in my basement. The Queen would only invest it in an offshore account or use it to pay for Harry and Meghan’s wedding.

    I believe technically you own it all the way to the molten core.

    Doesn’t mean you own mineral rights.

    I wonder how that works in London when you could have a tube line run under your house or something.

    Nonsensical question.

    You should be asking ‘how much volume do I own under the surface area of my property?’

    It belongs to the Crown anyway.
