Funniest Book a Farmer will Ever Read5
If you are / have been a livestock farmer in Ireland or the UK, or if yougrew up on a livestock farm than I can guarantee that this book will bethe funniest you have ever read.
Absolutely hilarious, with scenariosjust like real life and the dry sarcastic wit every sheep farmer hasneeded to survive.
I laughed til the tears ran down my cheeks.

Excellent read4
Excellent light read especially for readers with a little bit of knowledge about the vagarities of the countryside. The mentions of the hunt alone brought back lots of memories as well as tears of laughter.

Warm and funny5
They say the grass is greener on the other side of the fence. This is perhaps the view from the other side - where manure is spread too. Rib-achingly funny in places and wry smiles the rest of the time.
