Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake and Mr Brambles back with you again.
What a Horrid Yucky, Wet and Damp Day it has been!
First thing this morning we headed off to the beach and the wind was blowing straight down the Medway!
Miss Snowflake kept on turning around to face the wind and walked backwards down the beach!
She said that she didn't like getting her fur messed up in the wind!
 |
| If I point this way my fur goes flat! |
Mr Brambles got digging straight away and he says that today he will make hole that won't get washed away by the tide!
 |
| We'll start by opening a trench about here! |
He really got going and managed to extend the trench to half way down the beach, well, he said it was half way down the beach anyway!
 |
| Steady Girl or we'll both be in the Sea! |
Holly and I had a laugh but as we were further down the beach, they didn't hear us!
 |
| Careful Dear, don't fall in! |
 |
| We have seen better! |
It was all whir and gnaw and grind and by mid afternoon they had done enough to let all the light in the front windows!
Lunch time we went down the Sea Wall again but it was raining, in fact it was so wet that I decided that if Holly and OTL wanted a walk, they can jolly well go on their own!
I had done my business and was off back to the car. Holly said that she would be up there soon but she had some stuff to do first!
I went and stood by the car and refused to look at OTL 'cos I knew he would call me and make me go for the whole mile walk and I wasn't having that for anything!
So There!
 |
| No, I'm not looking, just get up here and open the door! |
Now, yesterday Pat asked what a 'Working Ferret' was, Well, ferrets have been domesticated for thousands of year and have been used for hunting wild rabbits. They are still used today for chasing the rabbits out of the warrens so the Two Legs can catch them to eat. That is called a 'Working Ferret' and Miss Snowflake was a Working Ferret before she found her way into our garden just over a year ago. Now she says that working was fun but she would rather do what she is doing now 'cos it is so easy and she gets to cuddle Mr Brambles all day! Mr Brambles on the other hand has never been out chasing rabbits all he ever did was make some baby ferrets which he reckons was more fun that chasing rabbits!
See you tomorrow!
Luv,
Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake (Retired) and Mr Brambles.
I loved todays blog. The pictures are lovely. I don't blame you for not looking at OTL, I think I might have turned my back on him to. What a lovely breakfast, 2 days in a row. I think you're getting treats because OTL & TM are probably missing Miss Twinkle a little. Mr Brambles really is the best trench digger and I love how Snowflake stands behind ready to catch his tail in case he falls in. So can you see more out of the front now that the trees have been taken down, this should help with your guarding, you'll be able to spot anyone trying to creep up on your house. I think it must be nice to be retired, I don't blame Snowflake for being pleased and having a cuddle all day with Mr Brambles and a play with OTL. I'm beginning to wish I was a ferret. Hope you have a dryer day tomorrow, have a lovely evening all :) xxxx
ReplyDeleteLovely blog and that is a real trench, so deep and so long, is he practising for something, will there be a trench digging contest later this year in Harrietsham? Chicken again, don't let me see you complaining if you get chicken again tomorrow!! The sunshine with the Point and Shoot was very good the blue hue gave it an appealing look, well done OTL, go to the top of the class. Sorry about the rain, I was going shopping but decided that I didn't need to go shopping enough to actually go out, must go tomorrow.........!
ReplyDeleteThat is one lazy Snowflake telling you to sign her out at Miss Snowflake (Retired), she ran away so she should be Miss Snowflake (deserter)! Keep dry tomorrow and I hope Mr Brambles trench is still there. xxxx
