New members introduce yourself​

Hi I’m Deirdre- I’ve been reading and enjoying the newsletter for some time and decided the new year was a good time to join.
Thanks for having me

Welcome Deirdre! Interesting spelling of your name btw


We'd love for you to share your answer to this icebreaker so we can get to know you better

If you could be any animal in the world, what animal would you choose to be?

 

[DrivingGirl]

Hi Xe
Yes my spelling is the Irish one - most of them don’t have the middle ‘r’
If I could choose to be any animal in the world I would be a giraffe in the wild though not in a zoo
Strange question but made me think

 

[Xe]

Hahahaha, what made you choose that? Giraffes are my second favourite herbivores. (Elephants are just the best)

 

[DrivingGirl]

They’re so ancient and unique among animals of this millennium - bit of a throwback to the dinosaurs while at the same time being gentle and graceful

 

[Xe]

You're right, they're just adorable. I've touched one up close. Just an amazing experience.

Wow that would have been amazing- I grew up in Africa but never got to touch a giraffe
