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. PRAISE FOR DIDDLY SQUAT. 'Clarkson has done more for farmers in one series than Countryfile. achieved in 30 years' James Rebanks, author of A Shepherd's Life. 'Clarkson has showcased the passion, humour and personalities of the people who work throughout the year to grow the nation's food. and brought an understanding of many of the issues faced by farmers to the British public' National Farmers Union. 'A deserving Farming Champion of the Year' Farmers Weekly. 'I don't know anything about farming. It's like David Attenborough doing jet-skiing, or Nicholas Witchell saying, "I'm going to be a cage fighter'" Jeremy Clarkson.
