This was a great audio book I throughly enjoyed learning about his farm trips, I feel he skipped over the subject of foot and mouth way too quick also kinda brushed passed his friend's suicide but overall a great book.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Peter Wright is TVs The Yorkshire Vet, having worked in practice with Alf White (James Herriot) and Donald Sinclair (Siegfried Farnon), here he discusses his memories of working with them and the changes to Yorkshire farming since he took over the practice. Reading for my local book club, absolutely nothing scary whatsoever, other than the repeated use of the word ‘testicle‘ in the first chapter #Scarathlon2020 #TeamSlaughter 5pt + 1pt
