+### spawn_child_logger method
+You can call `spawn_child_logger` with a new system_name which will retain the current logger's config.
+This enables you to pass loggers to other tools and maintain the same colourisation and output_path.
+
+```ruby
+config = DVLA::Herodotus.config do |configuration|
+  configuration.display_pid = false
+  configuration.main = true
+  configuration.prefix_colour = {
+    overall: %w[blue bold],
+  }
