EMMA GRAY'S NEW BOOK 'MY FARMING LIFE' ('A HEARTWARMING TALE OF
LIFE ON THE LAND' Alan Titchmarsh) IS OUT NOW What happens when you
swap 'I do' for pastures new? When twenty-three-year-old
shepherdess Emma Gray breaks off her engagement, the chance to take
over an isolated Northumberland farm seems just the fresh start she
needs. But while the beautiful scenery certainly offers plenty of
scope for contemplation, a night out with an eligible bachelor soon
seems more remote than the farm itself. And once you add fugitive
sheep and freak blizzards into the mix, Emma's dreams of a happy
future at Fallowlees Farm quickly begin to fade. Throughout the
long nights of lambing, the highs and lows of the local sheepdog
trials and the day-to-day chores of maintaining a large, ramshackle
farm, Emma's collies are her most loyal companions. With Bill, Fly,
Roy and Alfie by her side, she'll never really be alone. Emma's
remarkable first year at Fallowlees - the triumphs, the disasters,
the heartbreak and the glimmer of romance on the horizon - is an
inspiration for anyone who has ever dreamt of changing their life
and starting all over again.

Readers love ONE GIRL AND HER DOGS: 'This is an amazing book,
difficult to put down. A must for all thinking of living of the
land, or looking to be inspired by a hard working courageous young
woman' 'What a little gem of a book, I loved it. Emma has given us
a little taste of her life in the remote Fallowlees Farm in
Northumberland, her knowledge of lambing is just astonishing to me
and her beautiful dogs are amazing, I must admit to shedding a tear
now and then, but there was plenty to chuckle at too' 'An admirable
book' 'Very entertaining and readable. A brave girl who made the
decision to become a sheep farmer and farm in a lovely and lonely
spot' 'This story is written in such a way that you feel you are
actually on the farm and going through the trials too. Wonderful
empathy with her dogs and an excellent storyteller'
