Ferrity Friday!

Hello Woofers!

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

We love Fridays, Old Two Legs tries to get everything sorted and packed away by lunchtime. All the bills are paid and the accountant has been contacted and answers given to any queries OTL has!

Today he even went out into the garden and carried on digging up all the bramble roots in the 'Wild Life' section that has not produced any seriously interesting wild life except one little frog, ten thousand wood lice and several hundred snails!

OTL has plans that will include a plastic sheet to stop any further growth and a load of rocks that will hold the plastic sheet down and finally some large stone pots that will hold flowers that produce long lasting flowers for the bees and other insects.

There will be the pots where Snowflake, Brambles, Miss April and Miss Wilma are sleeping. There will be a sort of rock garden made from some rocks left over from the 'Pond' and that may hold some alpine stuff. Well, that is the current plan!

Mind you, we have a small problem, all this digging has caused OTL's back to ache. It is a Two Paracetamol ache at the moment but could develop into a Two Co-codamol back ache!

We will get a better idea when he tries to get out of the chair this evening and go to bed!

Tomorrow will be interesting, I'm due for a Shampoo & Set!

Like Holly Chops, OTL plans to shower me, then dry me with the Blaster and finally trim all my excess hair with the electric hair trimming machine. Well, that's the plan but if I show off we could have OTL giving me a trim using just the scissors!

At least it won't be cold 'cos we have permission to bring the Grooming Table into the kitchen and do it all there. At least it will be warm and bright, unlike the shed where we have been doing it in the past.

The Missus has been experimenting with the Dehydrator Thingy and has been working on some Granny Smith apples and has plans for some other fruit over the weekend. Now, if they dry out grapes you get sultanas and if you dry plums you could get prunes! We are waiting until we get to the 'Beef Jerky' 'cos I reckon the ferrets and us will love them!
 
Freddy says he is looking forward to some chicken strips, just like the stuff he has as a treat after they go back to the cage after the morning rampage!

See you all tomorrow!

Luv,

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

  1. Yo maties. Sounds like OTL has been working very hard while you and the others have been snoozing. I hope you went out and did an inspection when he finished, just to make sure the job was done right. Hope his back feels better soon. Just think Daisy, if OTL is stiff tomorrow, he might not be able to manage to shower you and groom you, now I know you'll be feeling sorry about that but you must put OTL first and let him rest and get over his aches. Now does Granny Smith know wot Mrs TM has been doing to her apples? I hope Mrs TM asked granny about taking her apples. You know the wildlife might have gone off to warmer places and that's why there might not be any there now. I bet the frogs are all in a snuggly place during the winter. Our frogs have all gone off to their winter places but they'll be out again in the spring. So no more whizz and hop for me for a little while. Hope Snowflake, Brambles, Wilma and April enjoy their new view in the garden. It's been another very cold day here so I've spent quite a bit of it snuggled up to my mum. Now I've seen the new John Lewis advert, does that look like a nargle under the bed to you? I think maybe I'll have to get my mum to check under the bed before I go in the bedroom tonight, I don't know that I would like to come across one of them thingys. Hope you all have a lovely evening with good muggings, don't forget to tell OTL to check under the bed for you tonight, just in case. Love, licks, wags and sniffs from little Arch and Mr Nipper xxxxxxxxx

  2. Bills paid, accountant spoken to, garden planned, dehydrator brought into operation that's all good but the digging and the poorly back not good at all. I recon you all like digging so why can't you all get your paws and noses in and start digging with instructions. Job done! Sorry about shampoo and set, hopefully it won't be too bad and you need to keep up appearances or your friends will disown you. xxxxx
