A Day of Rat Holes!

Hi Woofers!

McDaisy, MacHolly, McMay, MacWendy, Eric McFerret and Monty MacFerret back again!

Well now, it's been a funny old day today, Holly woke up with the Grumbly Tum this morning and was in need of an urgent poo!

As The Missus was the only one up she had to escort Holly to the grassy patch. It was raining and wet and soggy and TM was not happy 'cos it was a bit of a mess that TM had to clear up and back in the caravan Holly got the 'Washy Butt' treatment! Phew!

We decided to leave Holly in the caravan while Old Two Legs and I headed off to Oban to do some 'Uploading'!

If only life was that simple!

On the way we stopped off at the Nature Reserve for a quick wee and a poo, me that is, and then headed off to Oban.

Well, being a Saturday there was the world and its wife out shopping and of course there were no parking spaces anywhere. On top of that Old Two Legs decided he needed a wee! In the end we double parked and he dashed into the Two Legs Weeing Place and was out again before the Parking Attendant arrived!

Now, we had to find a place to park so we could use the 'Free Wi-fi' there was in town. In a narrow, dingy back street in the back of the town. OTL dug out a whole eighty pence to feed the parking meter and returned with a ticket that goes on the dashboard of the car.

He gets the laptop from the back of the car and turns it on ready to search for some free Wi-fi. Now there were loads of 'Free Wi-fi' available but the trouble was, they all needed passwords!

Just as we were starting to try a couple of the standard passwords, like, letmein or password or even the name of the hotel, when, accompanied by a bleeping sound, up flashes a window that says 'You only have six minutes battery life left, connect power supply!

Oh! Rat Holes! The power lead is back at the caravan and the 12v power lead that plugs into the car is at home in North Kent!

Now it's me that is showing off, all this way and no power in the computer!

Nothing more to do except to drop in the village shop and get some Doggy Scoff for dinner tonight!

Mind you, after lunch OTL took us out for a walk 'cos the rain had stopped and sun had come out, so, not all bad in the end.

Maybe tomorrow we can try again!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

McDaisy, MacHolly, McMay, MacWendy, Eric McFerret and Monty MacFerret.

  2. Batteries are like gas, pooof and gone, ok if you have spare or a lead but if you don’t then 😭 in buckets. Glad that in the future you did find some or I wouldn’t be commenting on this!!! Hope Holly was soon better, I expect TM dried out. xxxxxx
