The Return of Eric!

Hi Woofers!

It's the return Daisy, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret!

Well, the day starts with me and Old Two Legs heading out for a walk in the dark. OTL had his repaired lens on the camera and he had decided to try it out.

Now the camera had been dropped and the zoom function wouldn't zoom if the lens was horizontal or pointing down to the ground, so, Nikon replaced loads of stuff including the front lens which had a minor scuff on it.

It all looks good and promised to be back better than when it was first manufactured.

That was until OTL, standing on the sea front, took a picture of Sheerness, whilst holding the lens horizontal and trying to zoom in to crop the shot.

The zoom stuck, not wanting to move!

He had paid out a fortune to get it repaired and it still had the same fault on it as he had when he sent it off for repair!

OTL, not a happy puppy!

OTL is going to have a little chat with Nikon!

After a 'Chat' Nikon are picking up the lens tomorrow and hope to get it back to us, 'as soon as possible'!

Today Both Eric and Wendy enjoyed a rampage around the house while OTL cleaned the cage of Ferret Poo, a daily chore that is not one of OTL's favourite jobs!

Eric kept coming back to see OTL and get one of his favourite nibbles, a chicken strip! Not only do I love them but Eric does as well.

Wendy has gone off them nowadays and sticks to her Ferret Kibble and the Brambles Biscuits.

OTL suggested he take a photo of them both but Wendy is all shy and wouldn't stand still. So, OTL took a picture of the Ferret Statue he was given by the Ferret Rescue Centre and said he would call that Wendy!

It looks nothing like Wendy!

Now, Eric was tearing around the place looking for Chicken Strips and making a nuisance of himself, as usual!

It took several shots to catch him and even though he is suffering from 'Motion Blur', we did catch the twinkle in his eye!

OK, Chicken Strip or I'll run over the keyboard!

OTL says that Eric is more like a Weasel than a Ferret and can't be trusted anywhere near food!

Now, during the Spring and Summer and the start of Autumn OTL has taken pictures of this tunnel in the woods but just look at it now, not a leaf to be seen.

Tomorrow he says he will be looking for the leaf buds!

See you all tomorrow.

Luv,

Daisy, Miss Wendy and Eric de Weasel- Ferret!

  1. Yo maties. Well how did Eric get on at the vets?????? And you forgot the picture of the tunnel without any leaves on?????????? Sorry to hear about OTL's problem and if Nikon don't sort the problem out for him I'll go and bite them for him. I've been to the groomers today to get my Xmas bath and trim and I had a silly bow put on me ..... how naughty to put a bow on me, bad enough to be bathed but I draw the line at putting a bow on me. It's been cold and damp and very dull here today so I've spent most of the day snoozing in the warm. My mum got up early and went off to get some of the xmas scoff and came back with a budgie and some sprouts. My mum reckoned it must have been some super prize winning solid gold budgie and she nearly fell over at the price, it's now residing in the chiller at the shop where she works on account of she reckons our fridge isn't cold enough and she don't want a green smelly over priced budgie on xmas day. She better not forget to bring it home when she goes to work on xmas eve or she'll be eating bread and cheese. My boy is going to get stabbed tomorrow and he said I can't go and watch, how mean is that, I fancied a good laugh. Smashing pictures today. Take care and stay safe all. Love, licks and sniffs from little Arch and the others. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
