New Girlfriend

My Dear Princess and Dear Fellow,

Caro flew up to Tauranga today for her mum's birthday tomorrow. 

To remove stress and pressure she asked Shenee's partner Craigy to drive her to the airport. As our long-suffering partners, Craigy and Caro have become best mates. It's very nice, and he was more than happy to do it. 

Naturally I tagged along to say goodbye to her and then Craigy offered to make dinner for me and I wasn't going to say no to THAT. 

Craigy is a good cook.

Shenee was full of her usual energy when she saw me and her parrots Kwayzaa and Keppla were flying around squawking.

Naturally, they both landed on me which Shenee thought was hilarious. But then Kwayzaa refused to get OFF. She just wanted to run around on my shoulders or sit on one knee and then hop to the other and then look at me. 

When dinner arrived, Shenee tried to put the birds back in their cage (otherwise they try to steal food that might make them ill). Keppla was happy enough to go home. But Kwayzaa REFUSED to get off me. 

Shenee tried and tried to get her, but every time she was NEARLY back in the cage, she would fly back to me again. But eventually she complied. 

"You can see Symon again after dinner," chided Shenee.

But of course when it was time to leave the procedure happened AGAIN. This time she would running around from one shoulder to another, refusing to let Shenee pick her up. It went on for some time. 

"I've NEVER seen her do this with anyone before," said Shenee.

She loves me. She is my birdy now.
