Endeavouring to locate...
We live in the Busby Hill / Joll Road part of Havelock North.
In recent months, there has been a casual visitor to our property, hanging out with our girls who have just reached adulthood. He is very familiar in his movements, so much so that he, now, casually walks right through our house, without batting an eyelid!
I am hopeful of serving, not only a trespass order on him, but also a commitment from him (or his parents) sharing in the cost of bringing up the children he is now the father of.
This morning we awoke to find we are the proud grandparents of quadruplets - two black boys and two black girls.
If anybody can put us in touch with the father of our daughter's babes, we would be most thankful.

P.S. Just so I won't be labeled racist, i would prefer not going into colour or breeding of this character. I think the results say it all.
