High Tides and Wind!

Hello Woofers!

Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret here!


Yes, here we are again, still with our paws on the ground! Didn’t fancy the idea of floating away in the wind like a kite! Mind you, we have some Marsh Harriers down here but no Kites, except to very occasional one passing through!

It was still blowing this morning and in the wind was this horrid rain. Now on its own the rain wouldn’t trouble us at all but because it had some wind behind it, it got right through to our skin!

And that includes Old Two Legs as well!

Like Archie Babe, we didn’t hang about a quick ablution and we were off back home.

There were some trees blown over but nothing to worry us, we just zig zagged around the edges and missed all of them!

Lunchtime the tide was in and it was right up the sea wall, the beach had disappeared and I definitely did not fancy going in for a paddle!

Normally that's all sand and sea weed but not today!
 Holly reckons that if the wind was blowing the other way we would have sea water splashing all over the se way!

I ain't going anywhere near the edge, I might get blown into the Medway!
The fence panel down the bottom of the garden has taken up flying lessons and has managed to get airborne and across next door garden and over the wall! 

A couple of new fence panels have been delivered today and it looks like OTL will be helping to install them tomorrow!


Let's hope the wind will have dropped tomorrow or we will get an OTL pretending to be a kite!

OTL says he can sympathise with Aunty Sue and Michael not being able to find the car in Milton Keynes, it’s dangerous getting out of your car. OTL did that once and ended up being chased by some concrete cows!

Mind you, that was a long time ago!

He did once get lost in the car park at Blue Water, well, he didn't get lost, it was the car that got lost and OTL couldn't find it until he went back into M&S and exited through another door!

While we were out walking at lunchtime a Two Legs with a woofer stopped OTL and said that a ferret had been found and had been taken to the local vet and was it ours?

Would we lose Eric like that?

No Never!

Mind you, if the owner can’t be found we reckon OTL might be asked to look after it, well, it’s happened before, remember Twinkle?

See you all tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret.

  1. Yo maties. Well I see Holly chops is still wearing that evil collar. Sorry to hear about your fence panels, hope OTL doesn't take off when he puts the new panels up, now my mum is a dab hand putting up fence panels having had lots of practice. We've got red kites here, I don't like them, they give me the creeps circling overhead with their beady eye on me. Now you say you haven't lost Eric but have you checked that Wendy hasn't done a runner. Hope the lost ferret gets found soon and gets back to its family. Loved the pictures today. We've had quite a bit of wind at times, some rain and a little bit of sunshine. My boy is back at work tomorrow, we've enjoyed his week off & all our wrestling, naturally I won but he's improving. My mum said she's been to Milton Keynes a few times but finds it a very strange place. Who would want concrete 🐄 I'm looking forward to a nice lay in tomorrow. Hope you all have a lovely evening. Love, licks, wags & sniffs from little Arch & the Nippers xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

  2. When I saw the cartoon picture with the man flying his woofer I imagined OTL with a lead in each hand, wind got up and you and Holly taking off with him in tow! We were told once from someone who had six woofers to hold all leads in one hand as her husband came back from woofer walking with a black eye and grazed face from holding three and three, a lamp post came up and ........... well you can understand, 6 + 0, never 3 + 3! Your pictures today the sea looks very miserable, I am sorry you got wet on the inside as well as the outside, I stayed dry, only walking past two houses and back at the right time, tomorrow I am driving about a mile so Tuesday is adventure day. Archie has had a nice time with his boy so time for a rest to prepare for next sessions of arm wrestling. Any news on the stray ferret? I shall try not to go to Milton Keynes again, it isn’t on my shopping list any time soon. Stay dry with all feet on the ground xxxxxx
