OTL's been to the Doggy Shop!

Hi Woofers!

Here we are again!

Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss April, Miss Wendy and Freddy de Ferret!

You can tell it's Monday, Old Two Legs is on the telephone and the computer and, and, and, and it's BORING!

Mind you, he started the day off with a good game of chase with the ferrets while Holly and I went out for a walk with The Missus. She is trying to get fit for the summer by doing some 'Speed Walking' around the Farm Field!

I can see before long it will be a case of 'Speed Weeing' for Holly and me, just to keep up with her!

Freddy and Wendy were playing their 'Play Fighting' again and Freddy was dragging Wendy around the carpet! There were loads of Dooking and the occasional squeak from Wendy but when Freddy let go she jumped up onto her paws and ran after him to give him a nip behind the ears!

Then it all started over again!

We must remember to get the video camera out tomorrow 'cos it is so funny to watch. At first you think Freddy is getting too rough but then Wendy is laughing her tail off then springs into action and tries to beat up Freddy!

Freddy then gets fed up and grabs Wendy by the scruff and gives her a good shake and she then scrabbles at him with her paws and lumps of fur start flying about all over the place!

Did we mention that it is 'Moulting Time'?

Miss May is shedding loads of hair, all over OTL, every time he picks her up, so lumps of flying ferret fur is normal this time of the year!

It was rather warm at lunchtime and OTL suggested that we take May and April down the beach 'cos they haven't been down there for a few weeks, due to the inclement weather!

Well, as normal, May was in and out of the bag all the way down to the beach. Miss April said that no matter how nice the weather was, she was staying in the bag, thank you!

The tide was out so there was loads of sand to dig and Holly and I found a smelly to have a roll in!

Go on then, you roll first!

May was charging about and digging holes and almost bumped into a brand new rock on the beach!

Holly said that it looked just like Brambles Weeing Rock, but how it got there, half way up the beach and with no sea weed growing on it was a bit mysterious!

Will it float away again if we wee on it?

It was good to see them enjoy the Sea Kale Bush, April said that as she had a good roll, can she get back in the bag?

OTL said she could as long as she had a run up the grass path!

Wanna sniff?

The Grass Path was full of sniffs and we all had a slow walk up the hill. Miss April said she was feeling a little tired and could she have a carry.

May went over to give her a helping cuddle and OTL gave her a lift, so all was well!

Don't worry Sis, I'm here!

May is always looking after April. At home they used to sleep upstairs in the blankets and cuddle cups but since April has been on the medicines she has to sleep down on the ground floor 'cos the Poo Pot is closer.

May has moved into a spare Poo Pot that has a blanket inside it and the pair cuddle up there every time they go to sleep, it's as if May knows that April needs a Sisterly Love!

Now, without us knowing, OTL sneaked out and went off to the Doggy Shop to get some cat litter for the ferrets and he also got some Chicken Strips for the ferrets.

Then he got some Chicken Fillets for us and some Jumbone Chews for us as well!

He also got a load of Teeth cleaning chews for bot us and the ferrets!

You see, the ferrets love the taste and it helps keep their teeth all nice a white and shiny!

Providing they keep up with the chews, OTL says they may get rid of the Tartar just in time for the Ferret Show!

Our ferrets will all have clean teeth and clean butts and shiny coats! Real Prize Winners!

We are off now to see what's for dinner, OTL's Dinner, so we can have a share!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss April, Miss Wendy and Freddy de Ferret!

A Dook a Day Keeps the Vet Man Away!

Yo Woofers!

Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss April, Miss Wendy and Mr Freddy de Ferret here!

We had such a good time last night watching the James Bond Movie! Holly was doing all the fighting bits and I was doing the driving bits and Old Two Legs was pretending to be 'Q' on account he likes the 'Techy Bits'!

The Missus was pretending to play the 'Baddie' except she says she won in the end and the film was wrong!

We invited the ferrets down but they said it was too late and anyway they were just too tired!

This morning TM took us out for our walk while OTL was giving April her meds. Then may and April entered into their game of 'Chase'!

It was so funny that OTL grabbed the camera and took some video of them playing, problem was, he had left the settings on 'Manual Focus' so the film is a bit fuzzy, (a bit like OTL)!

The audio is OK though!

A Dook a Day!

You know it's hard to believe that Miss April has a heart condition the way she races around trying to beat up May!

Then there are the stairs, she is up and down them as though her tail is on fire!

We could have done with some fire to warm us up when we went out at lunchtime, the wind was coming in off the sea and although there were some blue bits in the sky it was still cold!

Too cold for swimming!

 As we were walking along the Sea Wall we spotted a Monster Fish on the beach!

It was one of those 'Flat Fish' like a Sting Ray but without a tail! Holly reckons it was a Halibut but I said it looked like a Black Nelly Fish.

We had a sniff but there was nothing too exciting. Then OTL had a look and said it was some sort of inflatable cushion!

Who would want a cushion that big?

We left it on the beach and we reckon the next tide will wash it away out to sea!

An Oblong Nelly Fish!

We were glad to get back home and cuddled up on the sofa.

Holly said that she keeps thinking about Archie Babe and his Itchy Butt, 'cos Holly used to suffer like that but it wasn't itchy but rather a 'Grubby Butt' and she just felt the need to rub it off, however, the way she would scrape her butt on the ground only sort of 'Spread it About'!

It was always followed by a Butt Wash when she got home!

Still, we hope Archie Babe gets those Vet People to sort him out!

Hey, maybe if he learns to Dook like a ferret he could get away with not going to the vets?

Well, it was just a thought!

See you all tomorrow!

Luv,


Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss April, Miss Wendy and Freddy de Ferret.

Holly is 006 3/4!

Hi Woofers!

Here we are again, Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss April, Miss Wendy and 'Mr Smoochy' himself, Freddy de Ferret!

OK, we know it's Saturday and Saturday is supposed to be for relaxing but Old Two Legs was out this morning climbing over roofs and up a water tower!

He really should know better at his age!

So, while The Missus took us out for out morning walk, OTL was packing all his stuff into the car ready to head off to the 'job'.

Before he went both sets of ferrets were allowed out for a rampage around the house. The Page Three Girls had a great time in OTL's office lifting the carpet up with their noses and making a tunnel from one side to the other. Then they would chase each other through the tunnels and over the desk and across the computer keyboard!

OTL says that one day they will make an order on the Amazon web site and cost him a fortune!

Freddy and Wendy were out as well, but not at the same time, and now have taken to chasing each other around the lounge. Next thing we hear is Wendy chuckling her tail off as Freddy has grabbed her by the scruff and is dragging her across the carpet!

She must think it great fun 'cos all we can hear is her chuckles!

OTL says that it is a sort of 'Ferret Chat Up' but I think that a woofer sniff is more romantic!

When Freddy has finished there are lumps of fur on the carpet that Wendy has lost in the tussle. The funny thing is that when Freddy lets go, she then chases him and gives him a nip behind the ear so that Freddy starts chasing her all over again!

Today we had a treat, Ox Heart!

Now it has been some time since we had any of this and of course, it tasted wonderful!

Holly and I woofed it down in no time flat and settled down to wait for OTL to return!

Lunchtime TM took us out again and the wind was blowing across the fields, so no hanging about too long sniffing the sniffs!

ere! It's Frozen Weasel!

We found the Five a Side Football pitch but there was no one playing, mind you it was cold!

No, I think it's compulsory if you are here on holiday!

 We found some more Weasel sniffs but as Holly says, 'Sniff one and you've sniffed them all!'

Same old Weasel Sniff!

 Now, OTL ordered the new James Bond DVD and we are planning to watch it tonight after dinner. We have heard it is the 'Best Yet' and Holly is all excited about seeing it.

Holly is into all this 'Seacret Agent' stuff and reckons she has a Double O call sign as well.

Now I've heard this story so many times now and as I keep telling her, 006 3/4 just doesn't have the same ring to it as 007 does!

Holly doesn't care though, she says that she graduated before James Bond so that is why she is 3/4!

Yeah Right!

We will be watching it and at the same time trying to stop Holly from cheering every time a baddy get blown away or thrown into the pond!

See you all tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly (006 3/4), Miss May, Miss April, Miss Wendy and Freddy de Ferret!   

Not our Best Day!

Hi Woofers!

Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss April, Miss Wendy and Freddy de Ferret here again!

Well, we could have done better today!

Early this morning The Missus took us over The Fields, not the best place for a walk but when needs must!

Then as soon as we got back home, there was Old Two Legs, with his coat on, all ready to go out!

Wow! We thought, a real walk coming up!


Then Holly said that we were going to the Poodle Parlour!

Mind you, we did have a Flying Jackets on so we weren't too cold, until we got there.

That was when OTL took our coats off us and said 'Bye Bye' while we were lead off to wait in a cage until it was our turn for a 'Short Back and Sides'!

I won't bore you with the details but let's face it, we are so pleased when OTL comes to get us out!

We were straight down The Beach and heading for our Poo Place!

Poo Place This Way!

 I couldn't keep up with Holly, 'cos I could only take little steps, just in case!

Outta My Way I Got a Neeeed!

 Luckily, we have a Poo Place just at the end of the path and pretty soon OTL was getting the Poo Bags out!

Come on Hurry Up I'm Next!

 The wind was blowing which made it all a bit chilly but we got around our walk and didn't see any other woofers at all!

Mind you, it was about three thirty and the Mini Two Legs were still in school!

As we were heading back along the grass path, Holly spotted a Monster in the water.

A couple of hundred yards out to see we could see something bobbing up and down and heading out to sea. I said it was a big lump of wood but Holly reckons it was a Nessy from Up North looking for runaway Heeland Coo's.

A Lump of Wood or a Nessy?

 We got back home and I was straight into the kitchen to finish off my chicken breakfast I had left this morning.

Holly wasn't interested in trying to rob me but she did climb up onto OTL's chair and got under the 'Throw' where she said she is staying until it gets warmer!

My Butt is Too Cold, so I'm Staying Here!

 I'm not sure what is for dinner tonight but I do know OTL is out working tomorrow so it's back to The Field for us!

It's a hard life being a woofer in this house!

Bye bye for now!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss April, Miss Wendy and Freddy de Ferret!

Back on The Beach again!

Hi Woofers!

Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss April, Miss Wendy and of course Freddy de Ferret here again!

This morning there was another six inches of frost on the cars, so we were glad that The Missus took us over the fields again! The thought of sitting in a cold car is not the best way to start the day!

Old Two Legs has almost got to the bottom of the pile of paper and he was able to spend more time chasing the ferrets around after he cleaned their cages out!

Little Miss Wendy thinks it great fun to be chased by OTL 'cos he keeps tickling her tail and when he does that she rolls onto her back, chuckling, then waits for OTL's hand to push her around on her back!

Freddy loves that as well but he just rolls onto his back and waits!

It's great when he does it in the bathroom 'cos the floor is all slippery and he spins around in circles every time he turns his head to the left or right!

OTL says that Freddy is doing 'Wheelies'!

Lunchtime we were down the beach again after so long!

May came with us and we all had a great time catching up on the sniffs both old and new!

'ere, this is a new one!

Miss May was almost beside herself with delight 'cos she hasn't been out for almost two weeks!

She was running from sniff to sniff and doing her little chuckle, you could tell she was having a great time!

Hey! This is a 'Serious Sniff'!

Then she found a sniff that got her going with the 'Ferret Roll' until OTL spotted her and told her to stop!

Oooooooh! I'm going to sniff good after this!

Then we were down the beach, Holly was charging about like a 'Potty Puppy' and as the tide was in I asked if I could go in for a paddle?

OTL said I could providing I didn't mind having a bath when we got home 'cos the water was all muddy! Drat and ............................

Just a Little Paddle?

..........................Double Drat!

Mind you, that May still had a go and pretended she was paddling but we could all see the waves were miles away from her paws!

Look! I'm almost Surfing!

 OTL got a letter today giving him a date for his eye operation, he wasn't too happy about it 'cos the following weekend he and Alun were going to a meeting that Alun is a member of the club and OTL has been looking forward to for ages!

Well, after the operation he won't be able to drive for two or three weeks and even then it's a bit dodgy 'cos his glasses will be no use until he gets a new pair and he can't do that for at least six weeks!

I can see some problems when he tries to do work on the computer 'cos nothing comes into focus until it is at 'Arms Length'!

Still, it will be worth it in the end, we hope!

I think I can sniff food being cooked, so we are off to investigate!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss April, Miss Wendy and of course Freddy  de Ferret!

It's So Hard being a Guard Dog!

Hello Woofers!

It's us! Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss April, Miss Wendy and of course Freddy 'Mr Cuddles' de Ferret!

You know, sometimes I wonder if going away for a break is all that it is cracked up to be! I mean, Old Two Legs goes away for a week and a bit and comes back to a pile of paperwork that takes two weeks to get rid off!

Holly reckons if he took all the paper and threw it in the waste bin he could get rid of it all in seconds!

He has been up at that computer all morning, mumbling away to himself and doing that 'Grumbly' sound he makes when he is doing things with the VAT return!

He had an appointment with one of his customers this morning so The Missus took us out but when we got back we found he was just taking his coat off! It seems the appointment had been put back until lunchtime!

Well, off he went while we stayed in the office guarding all the VAT forms and the ferrets hidden stash of Doggy Biscuits!

Those Doggy Biscuits drive Holly and me wild 'cos we can sniff them but can't get to them 'cos there is just too many bits of wire and stuff in the way!

After a while Holly gets into her 'Guarding' position and  before long was snoring her tail off!

Be Alert! OTL needs Lerts!

Me, on the other paw was just looking like I was sleeping but really I was keeping an eye on everything that was happening!

Got my eye on you!

 Once the morning games are over the ferrets get down to some serious snoozing and you can see by Wendy's position that there is not always enough room in the sleeping bag for both her and Freddy!

One day I'll get the pillow first!

Back comes OTL and we all settle down again, Holly doing the 'Guarding', me, hunting out the scoff the ferrets have stored behind the paper shredder machine and TM doing more craft work 'cos she feels 'Inspired'!

OTL is to get those Chorizo Sausages tonight, so Holly and I will be either side of him, helping to decide which bit tastes the best and getting samples to try!

Well, that's the main idea!

OTL tells us we have an appointment with the Poodle Parlour on Friday, we just hope that the weather is a bit warmer than it was this morning.

Six inches of frost!

OK, dinner is about to be prepared so we are off!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss April, Miss Wendy and Freddy de Ferret!

Back to Normal'ish!

Hi Woofers!

Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss April, Miss Wendy and Old Cuddle Chops, Freddy de Ferret here!

Well, it's sort of Back to Normal here except that The Missus is still taking us out for our walks. Old Two Legs has come home to a pile of 'Paperwork' and a long list of telephone calls he has to answer!

Yep, you guessed it, no photos today!

Mind you, we got cuddles with OTL last night and we were both still snuggled up with him first thing this morning!

All the ferrets got a cuddle with him and Miss Wendy made a right pig of herself, she kept licking his hand on each stroke and as OTL liked that, he kept going and so did she!

Miss April is showing signs of needing a good run along the Sea Wall. After teaching Miss April how to climb the cage, she is now climbing her own cage but inside! She hasn't got to hang upside down yet but it doesn't look too far away from happening!

Freddy was doing his 'Big Soppy Ferret' bit and wriggled around in OTL's arm as he got a scratch around the back of his neck, Freddy, not OTL!

OTL says that Freddy looks so sweet when he rolls onto his back in OTL's arm and grabs OTL's tiggly finger and holds it in his front paws!

May and April are a bundle of fun in the mornings, if you don't let them out quickly enough then the Poo Pot goes flying, together with last nights contents!

TM is not too happy about that!

Holly and I went with TM at lunch time down to get three and a half ton of meat for OTL's Curry Pot! While we were there she managed to get some special sausages for him as well. You see, they went out to an Argentine Restaurant and OTL had these as a 'Starter' and reckons they were dead tasty, OTL says they are called Chorizo Sausages! He says he is looking forward to when TM serves them up...........so are we!


We got chicken today, which was better than the Doggy Scoff we had yesterday. I don't know why we get served that stuff, I mean, we don't eat it all and it gets thrown away, such a terrible waste! For the price of a tin of Scoff, we could have two chickens!

Tonight OTL has got Curry, so all we will get is a nibble of Nan Bread, which isn't the most tasty thing on the table!

Tomorrow OTL is out early so it looks like we are to get a walk around the Farm Fields instead of our Sea Wall Walk. Still, he may be back by lunch time and take us down the beach!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss April, Miss Wendy and Freddy de Ferret.

He's Back and we're in trouble!

Hi Woofers!

Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss April, Miss Wendy and Freddy de Ferret here!


Well, he didn't get home until one thirty this morning!


We gave him a big wet slobbery welcome lick then cuddled up and went to sleep!


He has been sleeping for most of the day 'cos he got held up by a motorway accident that kept him stationary for over four hours!


Old Two Legs wasn't happy about that but pleased he wasn't involved!


Now, we are in trouble 'cos we didn't get to the laptop to say...........................................


Happy Birthday to Sue,
Loads of Licks just for you!
Happy Birthday Dear Soooo!
Happy Birthday to Yoooooo! (for yesterday)!

The Missus has been taking us out today, so as normal, no photos!

OTL says that after he has had a good nights sleep, he'll get the camera out again, just for us!

All the ferrets were tickled pink to see OTL again and little April has been taking her meds and now is climbing up the side of Fred and Wendy's cage, trouble is, she then gets stuck and can't climb down again!

So, that is a 'Rescue Job' for TM or \OTL!

Fred and Wendy are spending more time cuddled up together but we have noticed that she still likes to give his ear a nibble!

We are off to give OTL another cuddle now.

So, bye bye for now.

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss April, Miss Wendy and (Cuddly) Freddy  de Ferret!

He's Homeward Bound!

Hi Woofers!

Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss April, Miss Wendy and Freddy (Mr Fabulous) de Ferret!

We're all back again!

The Missus is getting very good with the Ferret Family, she has chased May around the Living Room, separated April and Freddy when they were squaring up for a fight. Then she rescued Wendy from getting too violent with Freddy when all he wanted to do was make baby ferrets!

Of course, Holly and I are the best behaved Woofers in the house!

Today we have been up in the village hall with the Glue Slappers. Holly went around trying to mug anyone who even looked like they had brought sandwiches!

I decided to hang back and wait to be invited!

We read that Old Two Legs managed to catch the ship and landed in Scrabster in a blinding snow storm, so no chance of any photos!

OTL reckons it was either raining or snowing all the way to Perth!

So, not to disappoint you we have selected a couple of 'Street Pictures' from yesterday!

Needed, two old ladies brushing the steps!

Two Mini TL's and a flea ridden woofer needed for this one!

OTL reckons what he needed was a scrawny looking dog, having a good scratch and behind him a couple of mini two legs in short trousers and jumpers with holes in the elbows!

Trouble was, the mini TL's were all sitting at home, out of the rain, watching satellite TV!

We will be waiting up at the bedroom window tomorrow, waiting for OTL to arrive!

See you all tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss April and Freddy de Ferret!

Missing OTL!

Hi Woofers!

Us again, Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss April, Miss Wendy and The Wunderful Freddy de Ferret!

Today has been one of those 'Oh No!' days, you know, wake up and 'Oh No!' Holly has eaten my carrot! Then you roll over on the bed and 'Oh No!' The Missus is still in bed and there is no room to stretch out!

Then you go out the front door for a walk and 'Oh No!' It's Raining!

Back home you head for the kitchen for some food and 'Oh No!' it's Doggy Scoff!

Back up to bed only to find 'Oh No!' Holly has pinched your favourite bit on Old Two Legs side of the bed!

Mind you, the ferrets were all in a good mood, Freddy and Wendy have been chasing each other around all over the house and Freddy has been rolling around on the floor with Wendy jumping on him!

May and April have been play fighting as well, April has been back to her old self although her intake of food isn't as high as OTL would like but you just can't force her to eat!

Still, OTL will be home on Sunday, so he can have a word with her and see what can be done!

Holly and I will be glad to see him back and then we can get cuddle at night when we go to bed.

OTL and Alun have been exploring the town of Stromness today and the streets look so very narrow, a real old maritime town!

Yo Ho Me Hearties Yo Ho!

 OTL made this one look like an old photo but he had to rub out the telephone line!

Looks old?

 Then Alun found the Khyber Pass and insisted he takes a picture. Mind you, they both kept their eyes open for the Berbers!

Up The Khyber Pass!

 Down the very end of the street was an old well that has been in use for hundreds of years and the notice tells of some famous ships that loaded up their water barrels from it!

Just water, no beer or grog!

In the afternoon OTL went off investigating Iron Age Buildings and boring stuff like that! Mind you, he did see four Grey Seals playing about in the water just in front of the car!

OTL has now packed up all his dirty washing and will be heading home tomorrow, well, the first part of the journey. They will overnight in Perth then back home on Sunday.

The Missus says that she is looking forward to OTL coming back 'cos she is fed up with Poo Pots and she has heard that OTL will be bringing a Woolly Jumper that was made with the fleece from Doris The Sheep!

OTL says you can still sniff the sheep in the wool!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss April, Miss Wendy and cuddly Freddy de Ferret!

OTL's Dream Came True!

Hi Woofers!

Here we are, Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss April, Miss Wendy and the cuddly Freddy de Ferret!

It's been good today, sunshine and good food! We got chicken this morning, all tasty and not 'Caramelized'!

There has been loads of young Two Legs running around, so it must be half term! I don't mind them so much but why must they make so much noise? I mean, they make more noise than Holly on a bad day!

We had a word with Old Two Legs who is still on Orkney. He told us about him seeing the Aurora last night and getting frozen by standing in the garden for hours taking photos!

Here are three he has sent down.

Add caption

 OTL says that he has waited all his life to see the lights!

Getting excited now!

 The only thing missing was the 'Curtains of Light'

There is a little curtain on the left hand side.

 So, we have a 'Happy Puppy' who now has seen the lights. What we want to know is 'How long before he comes home?' All us woofers are missing our cuddles, especially the ferrets. I mean, The Missus is OK but OTL just has the knack!

Today he went off again and stopped at places along the coast to photograph the waves, and do they look big!

Wet and Windy!

 He also said he saw 'The Old Man of Hoy', who ever he is!

In the photo he can be seen poking his head around the cliff to see OTL!

Can you see him?

 OTL then says he went up to see Lord Kitchener's Monument, but there was no one there, except a couple of rabbits that OTL says were almost as big as Holly and I!

OTL says that they had to walk about two miles to get there and when they did get there, it was empty, no one was at home!

Lord Kitchener's Monument and Alun!

So, that is about it today, TM didn't take any photo's of us, so blame her!

It's a good job OTL has sent some down to us or it will be just writing and that does get a bit boring sometimes!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss (Poo Pot Kicking) May, Miss April (Assistant Poo Pot Kicker), Miss Wendy and Freddy de Ferret.

Is it an Orcadian Druid?

Hi Woofers!

It's us again, Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss April, Miss Wendy and The Star, Freddy de Ferret!

It has been cold down here, a bit of sun shine but later came the clouds and at the moment we are all agreed that 'in doors' is the place to be!

Little April had a coughing fit this morning but The Missus sorted her out with a cuddle and a slurp, just like Old Two Legs does when he is here!

The only problem was, she had the coughs when Freddy was out of the cage and of course Miss April wanted to go and sort him out!

TM had a panic moment as she tried to scoop April back up before World War III started!

All was well in the end and every one is in their own beds snoozing their tails off!

We heard from OTL that he has been our among the stones again!

First of all there were the Standing Stones of Stenness, all very mysterious and dark!

Standing Stones of Stenness

 In the middle there was this strange looking stone, OTL thinks it could be either and alter stone or the dinner table!

Grub Up?

 Alone the road a bit was a bigger stone circle called The Ring of Brodgar which also looked very dark and mysterious!

Very mysterious this one!

 OTL took a number of pictures and then, just out of curiosity, he went to the very centre of the ring and found this!

Strange?

What was even stranger, there appeared a strange looking Geezer that OTL says was the 'Barmy Druid of Brodgar but we reckon it was Uncle Alun!

It's the Barmy Druid!

Another place they stopped at was the Italian Chapel, built by Italian prisoner of war in WW II.

OTL reckons it was an amazing sight especially as it was made from scrap bits of wood and stuff 'Found' by the prisoners!

The Miracle of Camp 60

On the way back to the B&B he managed to stop off at the Distillery in Kirkwall, just to look at the buildings, or so he says!

No, we don't believe him either!

See you all tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss April, Miss Wendy and Freddy de Ferret who keeps cuddling Miss Wendy!

Windy Weather and OTL goes under ground!

Hi Woofers!

Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss April, Miss Wendy and The Famous Freddy de Ferret here again!

Down here in Sunny North Kent it has been cold, I mean Freeze your Tail Off cold!

We didn't stay out too long this morning 'cos we were looking forward to our Lambs Heart which was a better option than sniffing!

Mind you, there were some interesting sniffs and we did have time to show off our flying Jackets!

It has a trace of Horse but with a Woofer Twang!

We didn't hang about 'cos The Missus wanted to do her 'Walking Fast' exercise up and down the path!

Come on, get a move on she is nearly caught us up!

OTL on the other paw has been out in the howling wind and rain, He has visited a Burial Mound and gone inside to see Runes, who ever he is!

Then he went to a sunken village that was around two thousand year BC!

When we find out what BC is we expect to be even more impressed!

The famous bit he says is the Tall Boy, a sort of ancient bit of furniture

No Veneer in here!

Then he visited another old building that the Estate Agent said was 'In need of some attention'!

An investment opportunity?

 Then he went to see the sea and I don't mind telling you, he can keep it! We don't want waves that big down here!

Wet and Windy!

So that is it for today, the ferrets are looking forward to OTL coming back 'cos they are missing their walk and TM says that there is no way she is taking them out 'cos they would only get into trouble fighting the Weasels!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,


Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss April, Miss Wendy and Freddy de Ferret!

He has got there!

Hi Woofers!

Us again, Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss April, Miss Wendy and dear old Freddy de Ferret!

He's not old really but he does bumble along sometimes!

Well, what first? Miss April has had some of her medication reduced and it seems to have not affected her at all, she is still bouncing around all over the place. Miss May tends to stay awake longer but then, she doesn't have a 'Heart Condition'!

The vet says she could last for years or months, he really doesn't know! We will all keep our claws crossed for the 'Years' option!

We have heard that Old Two Legs has arrived at the B&B on Orkney and is off to have an early night 'cos he is feeling a little jaded!

He says that he came across some snow as they went through the Cairngorms!

Just a little snowy!

 Alun was doing some map reading and was always on hand to indicate which way to go!

Try that way, it's down hill!

 While those two were playing with the snow, down here in sunny North Kent, Holly and I were having fun winding The Missus up!

You see we would both stop and look intently down the path
, then we did our 'Low Grumble', which normally means 'Big Trouble!'

The while TM is looking down the path, we would run off leaving her looking all serious!
 

OK, all together, Grrrrrrrrrrr!

 Once we did it then both ran off to a particularly good sniff that was ripe for rolling in!

The only problem, TM was just too close!

Do you reckon we could get a roll in before she notices?

 One thing about OTL going away, it gets a bit lonely on the bed at night and I miss giving his ear a lick around three in the morning!

I reckon that Holly and I will make up for it when he gets back!

OK, we are off to bed now 'cos TM has put his old jacket on the bed and that still has his sniff on it!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss April, Miss Wendy and of course, Freddy de Ferret!

Half Way There!

Hi Woofers!

Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss April, Miss Wendy and Mr Freddy de Ferret!

Well, he has just called in, he has arrived at the hotel and is all set up in the room. Old Two Legs memory is getting bad and he has already forgotten all the turns and corridors he has to take to get down to the restaurant!

I hope he doesn't starve! We wouldn't want our OTL to fade away!

We have been having fun here with The Missus, you see she doesn't do the walking and cage cleaning, that is OTL's job.

Until now!

Normally OTL takes his breakfast in with the ferrets and while they have their milk, he has his rabbit food. Then there is Aprils meds and May has to have her slurp of Ferretone and a bit of Chicken Strip torn into pieces so she can hide it at the back of the drawer!

TM don't know this!

So we are in a steep learning curve and this morning TM got her breakfast around eleven thirty!

Cage cleaning was fun as well, TH was on her knees with her head in the cage when Miss May comes tearing up to her and gives her a playful nip on the arm.

TM banged her head on the cage roof!

TM called May a rude name!

Freddy is taking an interest in Wendy and has jumped onto her back and held her down by the scruff, which is a sort of ferret 'Chat Up Line'!

Wendy hasn't come into season yet but maybe Freddy can sniff something in the air!

Mind you, he has lost his 'Ferret Bits' so Wendy is safe'ish!

OTL has made arrangements to have Wendy 'Done' when she comes into season, which, according to Freddy's nose, won't be long!

Holly and I have been up at the window keeping an eye on all the cars out the front of the house and giving them the 'Hairy Eyeball' so they won't park there when OTL comes home!

Mind you, it would be nice if he had come around the corner! 

We can always get Nipper to rip the tyres off!

Holly has got a bit of a Grumbly Tum but it didn't stop her from eating all her chicken and follow it up with a nibble of a carrot!

Don't even think about it Sis!

 So, all is well and OTL has 'Landed' at the hotel and has 'Reported in'. He says that he has driven through snow and sleet and that there is snow on the hills.

Well, he can keep the snow up there until he comes home 'cos TM doesn't like driving in the snow and that would mean we just get a short walk around the farmers field!

TM has promised to take some more pictures tomorrow.

Bye bye for now!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss April, Miss Wendy and Freddy de Ferret.
