Diddly Squat: Home to Roost

It''s been another memorable year on Diddly Squat Farm - will the chickens finally come home to roost? Welcome back to Clarkson"™s Farm . . Where the spring barley crop has failed. Just like the oil seed rape. And the oats turned the colour of a hearing aid. The mushrooms went mouldy. While the sheep, pigs and cows cost more than they earned. At least, the farm shop"™s doing a roaring trade in candles "“ even if they smell like Jeremy"™s knacker hammock. So never mind the rain, the skirmishes with the local planning department and the gargantuan hole in Jeremy"™s wallet. Because it"™s hard to feel too gloomy about life when there"™s a JCB telehandler, a crop-spraying hovercraft and a digger waiting in the barn. For any man with several metric tons of powerful machinery at his fingertips must be doing something right . Number 1 Sunday Times bestseller, October 2024
