Wet!

Hi Woofers!

Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret here!

It's been a bit of a grotty day today. It's only the weather that has put a downer on today, it was slightly damp this morning and by the time we were ready to go out at lunchtime, it was raining!

Not exactly bucketing down but that nasty stuff that gets into your fur and ends up making your back wet through to the skin!

Of course, Holly was complaining and showing off at getting wet even though she was wearing her big harness!

and now my tail is wet!
 Being it was wet, Old Two Legs took his camera with him but to prevent water getting into the workings, he put the camera into a poo bag with the lens sticking out.

One small problem was that when he put the camera up to his eye, he couldn't see a thing!

OTL was not going to be outdone and held the camera in front of him and guessed where it was pointing and what he was pointing at!

Strange enough, the pictures weren't too bad!

Even got the water droplets!
 Not that it pleased Holly who was getting a soggy back side as well as the soggy tail!

It even squeaks when I walk through the grass!
 In the end, OTL wasn't listening to Holly and was more interested in trying to get the pictures balanced and not looking wobbly!

Now, that's not too bad is it?
 On our way through the forest, we came across some more flowers and OTL tried his hand again but the picture didn't come out as planned cos what he needed was Landscape but the lens wasn't wide enough!

Pretty but could do with being a bit wider!
 Still, it wasn't too bad considering he couldn't see what he was aiming the camera at!

Back home we were packed off to the office beds while OTL and The Missus took the little car to the garage for its first service.

Holly and I kept a watch out through the window, waiting for them to return and rushed down stairs when they turned into the road.

One of the good things about being left on our own is that after we were dried off, we could have another roll on the bed to finish off drying our tails!

Let's hope that tomorrow the sun comes out!

Bye, bye for now.

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret.

Eric's lunchtime stroll.

Hi Woofers!

Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret back with you!

Well, it's been 'Warm' today, windy and warm, nothing too extreme but quite pleasant.

It started this morning first thing, out we went and had a most enjoyable wander around the Football field, then we wandered around the wheat field, weeing on the wild flowers!

Lunchtime was fun, Eric decided to come out with us and yes, he managed to attract the attention of two Two Legs and we got the same old thing, 'Does he bite? Does he smell? To which Holly answered the questions for Eric.......'Yes! I love chewing fingers and I smell but not as much as you!'

Anyone would think Holly has something against Two Legs Stupid Questions!

Eric loves getting to the beach, he has a little dig but doesn't go in for a swim, mainly cos the tide is out and he doesn't fancy a dip in the mud!

Sea Shells or OK, it's the mud that I don't like!
 On our way back to the car Holly and I love stopping for a sniff and a wee, Eric on the other paw loves to have a run on the grass and if either Holly or I are in the way he does what Freddy used to do!

Shift yourself girl or I'll do a Freddy on you!
 I must admit, Eric does get a wriggle on when he is chasing after us, I have developed a third eye so that I can watch out for him coming up behind!

Stand still and let me bite your butt!
This afternoon OTL went off with the cars and got them washed and polished at the local car wash. Both now look all smart, washed and polished.

The small car is going in for a service tomorrow so we will be going out in the big car for our midday walk.

All we need is for Holly to get a Grubby Butt and I can see we'll be walking home!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret.

Sunday 28 June 2020

Sunday, sweet Sunday!

Hello Woofers!

Us again, Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret.

We love Sundays, nothing to do except snooze and sleep!

As we didn't have to get up for anything, we over slept by a whole hour this morning and would have stayed in bed longer if the ferrets hadn't woken us up by rattling the cage door!

By the time Old Two Legs had got up and had his shower both Holly and I were busting for a wee!

There were no other woofers on the football field so OTL was sort of wandering around half asleep watching us sort of somewhere to have a poo!

The Missus was busy doing some more videos to upload onto FaceAche and we had a great lagh when she said that after the third attempt she had finally got the thing to work but found that she hadn't pressed the 'Record' button!

Wotta Plonker!

Now, she has got a gismo that holds her iPaddy thingy but when she is pounding away the camera gets a 'Shake' and it all goes wobbly. So, after much thinking, OTL has got out a stand that used to hold a projector and bolted the holder to the top table and then loaded the other shelves with heavy boxes full of card making inks. Now the iPaddy Thingy is separate from the table she makes that cards on and now nothing wobbles when she is pounding away and recording!

Who's a clever OTL!

Lunchtime Eric decided he wanted to come out with us, so, that means he didn't take the camera cos two woofers and a fast ferret were about the maximum he could handle especially with all the TL's wandering around with their own woofers!

We will have to get out his very small camera and see if that will be any better to take photo's of us on the beach. I mean, he wouldn't think twice if he had to drop it if a woofer came too close but the bigger camera would be a bit expensive to get cleaned!

This afternoon we have been very snoozy and that includes OTL as well! You see, he is listening to an audio book and is using his Bose Headphones which are seriously soft and comfortable and very clear audio. Plus the fact that OTL is a bit deaf, this means he can turn up the volume and not wake TM up!

The only problem is, he keeps falling asleep, missing a couple of chapters, waking up, rewinding the same bit several times!

Wotta Plonker!

We do our best to keep him awake but it is hard work!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret.

And now we get rain!

Hi There Woofers!

Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret here!

What a change in the weather! Up in Scotland they are suffering from Thunder and Lightening and down here the clouds have arrived an so has the rain!

Mind you, it is rain but not the floody type of rain, more the soggy stuff!

We managed to get around the football field this morning and we also went around the farmers field, just for a change!

Being Saturday, Old Two Legs was finishing up the paperwork and catching up on paying outstanding invoices!

It's getting close to the end of the month and it's always fun trying to balance the outgoing payments and the planned incoming payments cos not all of the customers pay on time!

Mind you, OTL has a sneaky way of getting payments in, he just waits until the customer wants some more stuff and they find they are on what OTL calls 'Stops', that is translated to, 'No Money, No Gear'!

Lunchtime we were out again but it started to rain as we went out and it got worse, so, we took the shortcut back to the car, at a run!

We did notice that the Rig over in Sheerness had some of it's lights on, maybe it was too dark to work on it!

No, we're still here!
This afternoon we have been banned to the office cos The Missus is doing more of her videos and this time, instead of using her iPhone she has been trying out her iPad.

It seems that there is a possibility that the thing may wobble when she gets around to stamping on the thingy's with the smoothie!

It looks like it will be OTL looking at the problem and applying his engineering knowledge to provide a stable base.

Rather him than me!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret.

Too Hot!

Hello Woofers!

Here we are again, Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret!

Wot a day! I mean, I don't think I've been so hot this year! It was hot when went out this morning and Holly was not a Happy Puppy cos before we went out there had been a very big storm pass over us full of thunder and lightning and the thunder had made Holly so scared that she had jumped onto the bed for a cuddle with Old Two Legs!

The thunder and lightning doesn't really bother me but Holly had been scared by Whizz Bangs when she was a puppy and has never forgotten it!

As the day went on it got hotter and hotter and even the ferrets stopped running around and instead they went off to find a cool spot.

OTL had put one of those freezer blocks under their blanket to help keep them cool and by midday the sun had gone around the side of the house and the temperature had dropped a little.

Down on the sea front there was a breeze blowing and we didn't hang about too long. Diving into the forrest where it was a little cooler.

We had to deliver a load of stuff to one of OTL's customers which was OK cos we could have the air-con on which made it nice and cool in the car!

Back home for some late lunch and a snooze with the curtains drawn, just to help keep the temperature down a little!

I can see that we will have an early night and let's hope it will be cool enough to sleep!

Bye for now!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret.

It's getting hotter!

Hi Woofers!

Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret here!

I don't know what it's like where you are but in North Kent it has been hot, blooming hot!

It was too warm first thing this morning when we went out. Normally we would have a game of 'Chase the Sniff' but today it was just a plod across the field, a couple of wee's then back home to breakfast!

Back home even the ferrets went into hiding and refused to rampage, more like wander and snooze!

One good thing about living close to the sea is that if there is a breeze, we get it and although is was  warm and sunny, there was still a breeze, not much but a breeze never the less.

One thing spoilt the walk, no water!

It was only wet miles out to sea!

Now, here is a sight you've not seen for a while, two trees!

We'd show you the bench but there was a female Two Legs sunbathing on the bench!
 That rig is still parked up in Sheerness docks, we some times see electric Arc Wielding on the deck.

It's still there!
 We sat down on a bench and a whole load of TL's came marching past, I think they wanted the bench but there was no way we were going to move!

Find your own bench!
 Sometimes we see small Hover Flies buzzing around but today there was a big one having a wash and brush up on an oak leaf as we passed.

..and a little sanitiser under my wings!
Back home there was nothing to do except enjoy the breeze blowing in the window!

It's going to be another hot one tomorrow, don't forget the Factor 35!

Bye for now!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret.

Wednesday 24 June 2020

Looking Good!

Hello Woofers!

The Gangs here again, Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret!

Well, as planned, Old Two Legs managed to give us a walk this morning before he went out to work. Mind you, The Missus was left to clean the ferret cage and the ferrets managed to get a rampage in as well!

We were unsure of just how long OTL was planning to say out but surprise, surprise, he was back just before eleven.

That was just great 'cos Holly and I normally get an urge to have a walk just about that time!

Now Holly gets all excited when it's time to go out and she just has to have a woof as we go out the front door.

Today, woofing wasn't allowed cos TM was gabbing away doing her 'Daily Video' and she doesn't like woofing while she is gassing on about where to stick the smoothy!

OTL had a bright idea.

When we get washed and blown dry, OTL puts a sock thing over our head to keep the wind out of our eyes. Today he put the sock thing over Holly's head and over her eyes. Then, off we went down stairs and Holly was worrying about falling down the stairs, so, she didn't woof but rather ran down the stairs and out the front door without a woof!

Sorted!

Down on the beach we spotted some stupid Two Legs wandering all over the mud flats as the tide was coming in!

Now, when you consider that the mud flats are all soft and there is the possibility you could sink into the mud, it really is daft of anyone to go out walking!

Wot a bunch of Bozo's!
 We stopped for a while at the bench and OTL wanted to take a picture of Holly and I in our new haircut.

As normal, Holly said she didn't want her picture taken and to be honest, I took some persuading!

Finally, he caught me, and honest, I didn't pose at all.

Much!
He used  the flash just to lighten up the highlights!
After that, it was back home for a nibble and a snooze.

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret.

Snoozy Eric.

Hi Woofers!

Us again, Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret!

Well, it's Tuesday and the weather is getting warmer. You can tell that cos Wendy was up at the cage door asking to go out first thing this morning. Mind you, Eric was rattling the cage door as well!

Our morning walk isn't long, just a quick trip around the football field for a wee and a poo then back for a snooze!

Old Two Legs has to go out tomorrow for a visit to a customer who is having problems, so that means we will be escorted around the field by The Missus, should be fun!

Lunchtime it was Eric’s turn to come out with us and just because she had to do some shopping, TM came for a walk along the sea front.

Eric was switching between getting carried and having a trot. Well, it was a bit warm and ferrets aren't too good at regulating their body temperature, not like us woofers who stick our tongues out or Two Legs wot get all sweaty!

TM was supposed to be in charge of Holly and I while OTL and Eric came up behind.

We had a game with TM, she would be walking behind us and Holly would jump down onto the beach and go snuffling around a family sitting on the beach who had bags full of food!

Up comes TM commanding Holly to 'Leave That Alone'!

Not that it stopped Holly and it was only when OTL added his command as well did Holly go charging onto the next family sitting on the beach surrounded with food bags!

Back in the car, OTL turned on the air conditioner and cool air was blown over us all.

While TM went into the Co-Op to do some shopping, Eric curled up in OTL's arms and with the cool air blowing over him, fell asleep!

After loading up all the shopping, TM sat in the car cuddling Eric who was still asleep, basking in the cool breeze from the air con!

Back home we all headed off to our snoozing places and TM had a parcel delivered.

There she was, on the phone to one of her glue slapping mates when this parcel arrived. 'Dunno who this is from' says TM who was trying to talk on the phone and open the parcel at the same time.

Finally, she got it open and squealed with delight, it was a box of flowers, roses I think, sent by some of her mates from the Village Hall Gang.

'Oh Look!' Says TM but OTL was heading off to his office to get away, his Hay fever was building up a head of steam and when he starts sneezing it sounds like thunder and goes on for ages!

When we got to the office, we found Eric, half in and half out of his sleeping bag, fast asleep!

One thing a ferret knows is how to sleep!

See you tomorrow.

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret.
