    I read the books a long time ago and really enjoyed them.

    That is one of my very favorite TV series and of course I've read the books as well. I've often referred to the *going crackers* activity to describe the behavior of my dogs at various times and thought I would love to decorate in the era of that setting.

    What an appropriate gift for a future veterinarian. Your uncle is a dear.

    When Christmas comes around and I'm making up a wish list I think I will put this on it.

    Hey that's not the Cotswolds --- it is the wonderful , beautiful wild YORKSHIRE moors! I have all the books and have seen every episode as my husband is from that part of England . I am sure you will truly enjoy every moment!

    P.S. there was another English tv series called "Noah's Ark" that was set in the Cotswolds. Also very good but not as good as Herriot!
