Diddly Squat: 'Til the Cows Come Home

THE NO. 1 SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER

Head back down to Clarkson Farm with the latest bestseller from our favourite welly-wearing wannabe farmer, Jeremy Clarkson ___________

Enthusiastic trainee farmer Jeremy Clarkson made just £144 in his first year at Diddly Squat Farm. This year he s determined to do better. Not because he now knows what he s doing. But because he s fed up of getting stick from Kaleb.

Yet farming continues to be a challenge.

For instance . . . · Loading a grain trailer was more demanding than flying an Apache gunship? · Cows were more dangerous than motor-racing? · It s easier to get planning permission to build a nuclear plant than to turn a barn into a restaurant?

Jeremy s always got a plan. Loads of them. Often cunning.

Not always greeted with wild enthusiasm by Kaleb and Cheerful Charlie, however . . . ___________
