Just wonderful! I finished work earlier today and have just spent a wet West Yorkshire afternoon sprawled on the settee listening to part one. It's ages since I read the books comprising this particular volume and it was a joy to hear the stories - like meeting an old friend again. Many thanks as always for the share.
I’m so so jealous! I’ve dreamed of one day going to the UK. I never made it. I’ve got only about 5 months to live sadly. So I’d say I’ll have to settle on seeing it in my dreams and thru these books. May all be blessed, and hello from WA State, USA.
I love these. I listen while commuting to and from work. It makes traffic not so bad 😊The narrator is spot on, I feel like James Herriot is telling the story. Thank you so much .
I remember years ago I was entranced by your books and passed them around to my family, I Was amazed when one of our extended family who was known to not a book reader, took to all of Books I had and wanted to know if there were any more by this author.
@@markbassani2676 yep...your spelling is correct. Dad always called it black strap and each cow got a hand full whisked in a bowl of it before milking time. It was one job I loved because I knew the cows loved it.
@realcanadiangirl64 was it almost black and pretty bitter? The molasses my mother used for cookies was dark brown till you drizzled it off the spoon , then it was really dark brown amber and sweeter. It used to be labeled in the grocery as light molasses..it is hard to find dark molasses in grocery anymore and black strap was sold at the feed store in a barrel..
The story of the boots brought back the pain of being ...just a girl...my brothers got the farm boots but I think they hated them..I wanted those boots. While they couldn't wait to get away from the farm..I longed to be the farmer..NOT THE FARMERS WIFE..
Same here! My butch younger adoptive sister who never moved away from home received the farm but she's lazy and mean to the animals. I got married and would give anything to be looking after the farm
See, with Mr Ripley, I would’ve just changed him about three times as much for doing the older, bigger beasts, and also made him pay for any marks on my trousers ect ect, if he didn’t fix the gates, or just say “ oh I’m so sorry, I can’t come out to your place till you fix the gates” I’d also turn around and go back home when I found he was at the pub!
@poster: There are some serious editing issues with this series. Some of the stories are missing a beginning or an end, e.g. Mrs Donnelly's rescue dog, among others. Also, sometimes you've got the sequence wrong, e.g. you'll get half a story, and then find the ending 30 minutes later. This ruined it for me!
Yes, it's really irritating how chopped and disjointed the stories are. It's hard to persevere with.I brought my daughter in to consult,as she's practically memorised the books and she pointed out that the books were renamed for the American market and the order of the stories was altered. She's had umpteen versions over the years and settled on a collection that was an early edition, before the television series made them so famous. But the mess made of them here is inexplicable. Especially as the chapter headings appear to be in order 🤷
Great discription of calving by c section. But how he survived as a vet , more to the point how the cows survived, when he was so poorly prepared. If you cut, prepare yourr instruments to suture beforehand. Preparation pays off. Why wasnt the calf removed? Mfarmer and student were there to do it. Entrrtaining but i would have 2nd thoughts about using him as a vet after that episode.

The narrator couldn’t be better chosen in a million years. He lives and breathes this wonderful story❤❤❤
Christopher Timothy is the narrator and he also played James Herriot in the TV show from the 70s. He's just perfect
Christopher Timothy! What a wonderful narrator!!! 🙏

No Yorkshire pud could survive a trip to Anson Hall!
Growing up on a dairy farm that was run by my father with draft horses-- no tracyor- I remember giving the.cows black strap molasses....tricot?
I think it's spelled treacle.
@@markbassani2676 yep...your spelling is correct. Dad always called it black strap and each cow got a hand full whisked in a bowl of it before milking time. It was one job I loved because I knew the cows loved it.
@@markbassani2676 ok joining
Yes. Here in Canada we feed it to our cattle but just call it molasses
@realcanadiangirl64 was it almost black and pretty bitter? The molasses my mother used for cookies was dark brown till you drizzled it off the spoon , then it was really dark brown amber and sweeter.

I had such a laugh about the car testing. But I wanted to know if the next car test went well.
The story of the boots brought back the pain of being ...just a girl...my brothers got the farm boots but I think they hated them..I wanted those boots. While they couldn't wait to get away from the farm..I longed to be the farmer..NOT THE FARMERS WIFE..

He worked for 1/2 CENTURY as a vet.
