Marching into Spring.......

With Easter just round the corner...here are a few of the activities taking place over the next few weeks........

A Baby Giraffe born at Paignton Zoo

He's delicate and dark eyed - and stands at nearly 6ft tall. He came into the world around 7am on Wednesday 24th February. The male calf named Tonda was born to beautiful mother Janica and father Yoda after a 15 to 16 month gestation period. He is the pair's first youngster. Curator of Mammals Neil Bemment said: "We are ecstatic with the new arrival. We hope he will grow up big and strong like his dad. This heralds a new era in giraffe breeding for Paignton Zoo after the tragic fire that killed Paddy, Kizi and their week-old calf back in 2006". Zoo spokesman Philip Knowling said " We are delighted. He's the most amazing new-born you could ever imagine - he is truly a wonderful sight." Newbarn Farm offers discounted tickets for entrance into Paignton Zoo.

Girls' Night Out. Thursday 8th - Saturday 1oth April.

Jane is preparing for the biggest day of her life and that wouldn't be complete without a traditional hen night with the girls. Meanwhile Tony and the boys are putting together the final touches of their make or break ladies only show. Both funny and touching, we follow the boys from rehearsals to performance, as they prepare for the forthcoming 'Feast of Flesh' contest, which could turn them from has-beens to heroes overnight.
