Eye Eye!

Hello Woofers,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret back with you again!

What 24 hours we have had, I mean, did you see what was going on in the U.S.A.?

Old Two Legs and The Missus had the CNN news on and was watching it all unfold on the TV screen. Talk about seeing history as it happens!

It makes our walk around the old golf course look rather tame!

Again, it was raining just a little as we sloshed around the course, the puddles of mud were making OTL slip sliding all along the path while Holly and I headed off to the grass 'cos we got 'Four Paw Drive'!

It was this morning that OTL had to go to the opticians to get his eyes tested after having not only his cataracts done but corrective laser surgery as well!

So, this visit was to get corrective lens for the glasses he has. One set was around twenty years old, made of Titanium and just needed new lens but the other set were getting a bit worn after eighteen years of use and needed to be replaced.

So, after long time prancing up and down the different frames on show and trying on loads of then he decided that none of them made him look twenty years younger or better looking, so he ended up with a pair that looked similar to the ones he has now!

Once the optician had done all the tests and looked at his eyeballs, measured the distance from his eye to his ear and a few other tests he was presented with the invoice.

It was a while later when he had regained conscious and the defibrator was packed away and his credit card wrestled from his wallet, that he headed off home crying his eyes out!

He is such a wimp!

Mind you, if he thinks he had it bad, Eric and Wendy need a distemper jab and I need another six months’ supply of my pills!

The vet prices are just as bad as the local opticians!  

I think we will leave the vets until Monday, just to give him time to get over today! 

Looking at the weather forecast, it looks like we may see some flurries of snow tomorrow! Even if not, then it will be blooming cold! I'll have to check that our sheep skin coats are dry!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret.
