These early lambs

provide triple proof that the long winter days will not last for ever and that Spring is on the way

Triplets Donna, Tracey (Tracie) and Jackie Waldon, 14 year old daughters of Mr and Mrs Brian Waldon, of 18 Barton Tors, Bideford, found the young lambs appealing playmates when they visited Southcott Ash Farm, Parkham, the home of Mr and Mrs R L Dunn. Coincidentally, the lambs were all born on the same day, too, although to two different mothers.
