Gazumped!

 Hello Woofers!

Daisy, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret here!

What a performance we have had. Yesterday we had been helping Old Two Legs research the market for a car that would do what we wanted it for and still appeal to OTL's boy racer attitude on life!

Now that means there would be a lot of car dealers’ stock to look at and compare. So, it was late last night that we agreed on a motor.

By then it was too late to do the blog and we all went to bed, exhausted after all this research!

Well, first thing this morning OTL phones up the dealer and yes, the car was still available and we could come down for a test drive.

It was then that The Missus said she was too busy today and could only make it on Monday, no problem says the salesman, see you on Monday.

Of course, that set-in motion other things like getting an insurance quote and checking on MOT and other stuff.

It was late morning that the salesman telephoned back, 'Er, sorry about this but we have sold the car this morning'!

Rat Holes!

Back to the searching again, but we are leaving that until next week!

Super sun shiny day today and we even took Eric with us down to the sea wall.

That ferret is too well known, there was a family walking along the sea wall and stopped when they saw Eric in OTL's arms, 'Look! It's Eric.' says the man.

We don't remember him!

Mind you, while Eric was saying hello to his fans I sneaked in for a bit of a deep paddle!

For some time, we have noticed that there was a squirrel had found its way to our end of the world. OTL had seen it just outside our village.

Today we saw it in the woods close to the sea wall and it was lucky that he had his camera with him!

Gottcha!

Now, I was just too busy to bother with squirrels’ cos I had found a super sniff in the bushes but Eric spotted it and climbed into OTL's jacket all worried cos he had never seen a squirrel before!

Eric has led a sheltered life you know!

Well, that was one squirrel, it will be interesting to see if there is any more finding their way to our forest!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret.
