Hi Woofers!
McDaisy & Mac Holly
here!
What a tale we have for
you today, no pictures I'm afraid but let me tell you the tale.
Last night after
uploading the blog, we all settled down to watch a bit of TV but the
wind started to blow, and it blew and it blew. In fact it was so
blowy that Old Two Legs put the satellite dish down before the wind
could do any damage.
All night long the wind
blew and no one slept. The caravan was being rocked from side to side
and the wind was trying to get into every nook or cranny of the van.
None of us slept a
wink!
Four thirty came and
the alarm went off for us all to get up and head off to the ferry in
Port Ellen.
It took us an hour to
get there and all the way there the car and caravan was being blown
from one side of the road to the other!
When we got to the
port, the ferry was already there and even in the port you could see
it was rocking with the wind.
On board, we headed up
to the top deck where us doggies were allowed to be and settled down
in our bed.
The boat left the
harbour and Holly and me decided to catch up on our sleep.
The captain came on
over the loud speaker system and told us all where the 'Muster
Stations' were in case of trouble then said that there may be a
little 'Motion' 'cos the wind was blowing a bit.
Blowing a bit!
Let me tell you, every
one was sea sick, that boat was bouncing around like a cork in the
water. I looked out of the window from the safety of OTL's arms and
saw …............. sea, sky, sea, sky, sea, sky, sea, sky, sea,
sky, sea, sky!
It was horrible!
Every one was nose deep
into white paper bags shouting for Hughy, or some one like that!
Two and a half hours
later, (it seemed longer!) We landed, all of us looked a strange
green colour and were doing a lot of Ooo'ing!
The wind was still
blowing and the rain was coming down and the puddles on the roads
looked like lochs!
We had to stop a couple
of times to let Holly and I have a wee and a breather and give OTL a
bit of fresh air!
By the time we arrived
at Gretna Green we were all feeling much better, so much so, OTL and
The Missus got in a Chinese Meal and Holly and I had the last of the
Rump Steak, medium rare and a few biscuits. Then we mugged OTL for a
couple of Plawn Clackers!
Now we are off to bed
to try to catch up on our sleep.
I don't think it will
be an early start, but at least the wind has stopped!
See you tomorrow when
we get home!
Bye bye for now.
Luv,
McDaisy & Mac Holly
