A little rain!

Hoots Mon!

McDaisy, MacHolly, Miss McMay, Miss McApril, Miss McWendy and Freddy de McFerret here!

Well, wot a fun day we have had!

The rain stayed away all morning while Old Two Legs was doing his chores and cleaning and walking and feeding and all the other stuff he does including Miss April and her medicines!

We have finished with the anti-biotic stuff that was prescribed for her sore paw and as we said yesterday, it isn't sore but just a bit swollen, so we will be making a trip to the vet when we get back, unless it has gone down of course!

Mind you, that doesn't stop Miss McApril from exploring in the undergrowth!

Bet you can't see me!

 All the ferrets had a ferret around in the Bluebells and were even digging in the moss!

I sniff Mouses!

After his chores, OTL loaded us up in the car and we headed off to Glen Garry where there is a single track road that leads nowhere but is twenty two miles long!

We managed to get out for a couple of walks off the lead which was great 'cos we aren't allowed off the lead in the caravan place and of course we have to watch out for cars running up and down the road!

There was one place we wanted to get out but OTL said it would not be wise, especially as we were making so much woofing noise!

Still, just think of it, if we moved up here we wouldn't be troubled with cats poo'ing in the garden it would be Red Deer poo'ing on the drive!

Come out here and say that!

There were some super views along the road but because of the rain OTL decided to leave the big camera and lens in the bag and instead use his small camera.

Glen Garry in the rain!

On our first stop we jumped out and were off the lead as soon as we got out, which was rather handy 'cos we both were in need of a wee and a poo! Miss Holly Chops was first to notice it was raining harder than when we first got out of the car and decided that walking off the lead is fun but a nice warm, dry car with the heater turned up was far more preferable!

Here, my tails getting wet!

Holly took the lead and we were heading back to the car at full speed, we didn't wait for OTL to pick us up, our names not Archie Babe!

Last one back is a Ferret!

Once we had arrived at the end of the road, we turned around and headed back! Well, we couldn't go any further so there was no point in hanging about!

About half way back the rain stopped, so OTL pulled over onto the side of the road and we headed out for another run off the lead!

Look! Sand!

This time we got onto an island in the middle of a flooded bit of the glen but the water level had gone down so we were able to walk across the rocks to the island. We even found a sandy beach, so I had a roll and so did Holly!

That was until OTL spotted us and told us to 'Behave'!

Spoil Sport!

Then it started to rain again, so back to the car!

We headed back to the caravan and OTL telephoned to The Missus to arrange for a couple of warm Doggy Towels to be ready for us when we got back!

We do love a good rub down with a warm towel!

That was followed by a bowl of chicken and a teeth cleaning chew then onto the bed to cuddle up to the Raccoon that has lost one of its squeaks!

So, that's it for today, the locals have forecast howling gales tomorrow so it looks like it could be another trip out in the car to look at the misty mountains!

Bye bye for now.

Luv,

McDaisy, MacHolly, Miss McMay, Miss McApril, Miss McWendy and Freddy de McFerret.
