Hi Woofers,
Daisy & Holly here!
After we posted the blog yesterday, Old
Two Legs asked what was for dinner, 'Salad and Meat' says The Missus,
'Yuk!' says OTL!
Salad to OTL is about the same as Doggy
Scoff to us!
'How about a Chinese?' says OTL
reaching for his triple locked wallet.
Well, we had some chicken chow summat
and King Prawns and some other rice type of stuff.
After the chicken nibbles we managed to
mug Holly started on the stuff OTL calls 'Plawn Clackers!'
I only have a few bits of the Plawn
Clackers but Holly just loves them!
OTL picked up one, took a small bite
and looked the other way, just long enough for Holly to lean over and
bite a big lump out of the remaining bit in OTL's hand!
Naughty Holly! Still, it got her a
couple of full sized ones to nibble on!
This morning we stayed in bed a bit
later than normal 'cos we were tired after yesterdays running around
on the beach. When we finally did get up TM told us that we were to
'Clear Off' today 'cos she had plans to play with all her Ally Pally
purchases and didn't want us under her feet!
Well, that was it, after our walk in
the forest (Holly is still not happy about going in there!)

When we finally arrived at the place,
it had gone! I mean, like, there was no sign of an RSPB site, just a
factory type building and notices telling us all to 'Clear Off'
'Sounds a bit like TM!' says Holly!
OTL had a look on his SatNav Gizmo
Thingy and said there was another site a few miles away, so off we
went singing our driving songs!
We landed up at a very small car park
and a sign telling us we were at Buckenham
Marshes!
 |
| This Be Buckenham! |
The
path down to the waters edge was across a railway crossing where we
had to open and close heavy white gates and listen to find out if
there were any trains coming, which there weren't, lucky for us!
Off
we went past fields full of geese and swans and coots and moor hens
and herons and a Kestrel looking for lunch!
 |
| Anyone for Lunch? |
We
ended up stopping at a big river.
 |
| The Broads! |
OTL
said it was called The Broads, a big sort of inland waterway where
everyone runs around in boats going Yo Ho! To each other and other
nautical stuff they learnt from reading boaty books!
Holly
said it all looked pretty daft to her 'cos where could a poor doggy
go when they wanted a wee?
 |
| What do your when you want a Wee? |
We
walked for miles along the river bank saying 'Hello' to the fishermen
who were trying to teach their worms to swim, as normal!
 |
| Another Fisherman! |
We
woofed at a couple of those inland boaty things and OTL told us if we
woofed too much he would throw us in The Broads and make us swim
back!
 |
| I'm Not Swimming in There! |
Yeah
Right, just see what TM would say about that!
We
came across an old Windmill that had lost all it's windy bits and was
now a place where they kept an electrical pump to pump water from the
ditches out to the big river.
 |
| A Windy Pumpy Thingy! |
OTL
spotted some egg shells that he reckons are pigeon eggs and they had
come from a nest box that looked like it was meant for Barn Owls!
We
walked all the way to the end of the path then turned around and
headed back to the car. I was getting a bit tired, so I did my 'Pick
Us Up OTL' trick and he heaved me up on his shoulder for a while. You
know, he is a bit of a wimp, there I was sitting on his shoulder when
I started to slip a bit, so I dug my claws in to stop me falling off.
The fact I dug them into his neck doesn't really matter, well, I
didn't want to fall off!
 |
| It's Only One Claw! |
When
we got back to the car, OTL had a packet of crisps and we had a
couple of 'Doggy Sausages' before heading off for home.
Holly
and I slept most of the way back, I reckon that my poor feet must
almost be worn away what with all this walking lark!
Tomorrow
we want a 'Restful Day'
See
what happens!
Bye
bye for now!
Luv,
Daisy
& Holly
