March 2023 Outing

On March 12th, after negotiating pouring rain and floods, we arrived at Coombs Farm where, in the barns it was nice and dry and saw various new born lambs and expectant mums.  We had a coffee break in the barn, then Julian took us the scenic way to the Toby at Worthing where we had an excellent meal.
