If you've enjoyed reading HARRY, ME AND BOILED BACON, you're going to love HARRY, ME AND BOTTLED TEA'. Stacked out with humour and accounts of life on a mixed dairy farm in the 1960s, John Johnson is back from agricultural college and ready to join forces with farm owner, Harry Wilcox once more.For the first time John experiences what it is like to drive a tractor fitted with a cab and, after a year's absence from the farm, he finds out he needs to work hard to get the cows back on friendly terms with him again.Pedro the donkey is on form at the village nativity play, John gets in a tangle when he attempts to shear his first sheep, and Harry lets him take control of the combine harvester with interesting results. Add in some lively breakfast-time banter and an episode with Harry's ferret, trying to shear and you have an entertaining and informative read.
