My try:
1. Use Select by Color Tool to select the black (threshold 50).
2. Select > Grow grow by 1 pixel
3. Select > Save to Channel
4. Select the Layers Dialogue and click on the image layer
5. Copy, then Paste. In the Layers Dialogue a new Floating Selection layer is created. Right click on this and select To New Layer. You now have the black on its own layer. Click on the eye of this layer to switch off this layer.
6. Switch to Channels Dialogue, click on the channel saved from step 3, and click on the Replace selection with this selection button. The original selection is restored.
7. Select > Grow grow by 2 pixels
8. Filters > Enhance > Heal Selection. This step requires that the Resynthesizer plug-in is installed.
9. Select > None
10. Filters > Blur > Gaussian blur - use 5
11. Switch on the eye on the black layer to make it visible.
