Orphan lamb


ORPHAN LAMB
by Ann Purser
Peggy Palmer at the post office stores watched as young Mandy and Robert Bates, newly married, run into tragedy and struggle. She sees the impact on the village when Nancy Bridget, blonde and leggy, arrives at the hall to take charge in the latest in the long line of Standings, and listens with amusement as Ivy, Ellen and Doris nick named 'the three witches of Ring ford', make their crabby comments on the village goings on. There is comedy, tragedy, joy and sorrow in this intimate community of a small English village.
