Some delightful words and a picture from Louise Thomas.

"Those with delicate sensibilities look away and stop reading now. For the rest of you, this is one of the most bizarre things I've ever seen. Two black swans/kakīānau (Cygnus atratus) were doing their whole love dance that they do, with the twining necks and head bobbing (I have much nicer photos than this one - but this is the funny one), they finished with some post-coital celebratory honking. Suddenly, out of nowhere, a male greylag goose zoomed in and starting joining in with his own loud honking, while swimming around the loving couple - it quite put the poor old male swan off his stride. He wound up nipping the goose on the bottom to get him to go away - it quite ruined the mood."

Here at Grandfriends we bring together families and grandies in the hope of forging new familial connections. And boy is this a great family seeking the best grandie. Jo, Tim and their son Max (5) are active and creative, going orienteering every fortnight. They would love for someone to join them! However, if that's not your favourite they are also creative; Jo likes op shopping and is interested in music, and Max is into art and building with wood. Bonus, they have a cat called Fuji. 🐱🧶
As a comment from Jo herself: "I would personally love to connect with a family/Grandie who loves playing musical instruments. This would be a real treat, and a great way to connect! If not music, then someone who loves getting creative in some form, whether it be through art, clay, food creations, beads, or whatever else, it doesn't matter really 😉"
If something you would like to be part of please get in touch quoting reference number 4956 Joanna.
