TM's Off The Prezzy List!

 Hello Woofers!

We are here again, Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake and Mr Brambles.

We couldn't go to our normal beach this morning 'cos they are digging it all up and resurfacing the tarmac surface, so, OTL takes us to our local field and would have taken us to the beach, but there was a big herd of cattle blocking our way!

Well if it's not one thing then it's another!

Still, we saw the Power Station and the Gas Storage Tanks from a different angle!

Is that Grain I see before me?
 We were all having fun on the new marshes, mainly because it is covered with Bull Poo! I won't tell you what Old Two Legs called it 'cos it's rude!

The ferrets had fun sniffing the new sniffs 'cos they hadn't come across Bull Poo before and they kept calling out to us all to 'Watch Out, There's a Pile over here!'


Just spotted another pile!
 Miss Snowflake just wanted to get back in the bag 'cos as she said, 'All this stuff makes me scared'!

I have decided I don't like this!
 Holly and I were having a great time, we ran all over the place trying to kick up some rabbits but I think that the cattle had scared them all off!

So, Holly and I had another game, we ran as fast as we could and the trick was not to step in the Bull Poo!

Tip Toe Thru The Bull Poo, Thru The Bull Poo, Won't you follow me!
 I won, well, I didn't step into any until the last moment when Holly stopped suddenly and called out, 'Look, Rabbit Poo!'

Actually, it was Bull Poo that was well past it's 'Done Date'!

Mind The Poo!
 We got back home and both Holly and I were a bit hungry. The Missus said she was going down to the butchers to get our Ox Heart and cook it up for us.

Now we were a bit puzzled 'cos she normally has to order it first before picking it up, but off she went in the car into the next village to get our meal.

Holly and I sat by the window waiting for her to return and our tummies were rumbling away as though they were about to fall out!

Then we saw TM come back and we woofed and jumped about 'cos we were so excited about having OX HEART!

TM came in and we followed her to the kitchen where she got out a tin of Doggy Scoff and put that in our food bowl!!!!!!!!

Doggy Scoff?????? What happened to the Ox Heart?

Holly said that it was a good job that we aren't on Face Book 'cos if we were we would 'De Friend' here straight away!

Still, OTL is still our friend and at lunchtime he took us to The Forest where we had a good run around chasing squirrels!

Oh yes, he was running around chasing Fungi!


A Bracket Fungi on a Silver Birch branch.
Then he found some small Parasol type of fungi that was growing right at the bottom of an old stump.

A Parasol Fungi.
I was on the lookout for squirrels 'cos Holly said that you could roast them over a fire and they tasted just like chicken!

Just Like Chicken?
OTL has started to look at Moss's now, you'd think he would be happy with just the fungi!

Still, it keeps him quiet!

Greeny Type of Moss!
 Then he found another that a week or so ago he thought might have been fungi but now he has identified it as Moss Flowers!


Moss Flowers?
 As Holly says, 'You won't get many Bees on those flowers!'

 There was a real damp sniff in the air today, so we reckon that it's going to get a bit colder and Autumn is going to arrive very soon!

I mean, just look at this tree!

Autumnal Reflections!
 OK, I know it's a bit naff but what do you expect from two poor starving puppies?

Got any Sarnies?

See you all tomorrow, the Whizz Bangs have started and Holly is throwing a Wobbler!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake and Mr Brambles.

What a Wet One!

Hi Woofers!

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake and Mr Brambles here!

Last night Miss Holly Dog was all upset again and spent most of the evening cuddles up to Old Two Legs on his chair, I was there too, that was until the shortbread ran out, then I headed off to the office for a snooze while OTL watched the F1 Racing.

The Missus was whacked out after her day of demo's and chatting and she fell asleep on the sofa!

Then the Whizz Bangs started and Holly stayed cuddled up with OTL who had turned the volume up on the TV to help drown out the Whizz Bangs!

Finally we all got to bed and Holly stayed cuddled up to OTL all night, there was no room for me at all, so I stayed on my cushion and chewed my Rawhide Chew!

This morning we went out for a walk and OTL forgot the camera, which in hind sight, was a good thing 'cos when we got to the beach it started to rain and it got heaver the closer we got to the car!

We were all running back and even the ferrets didn't hang about too much!

In the car, OTL dried off the ferrets first and then gave Holly and me a good rub down as well.

There was a small problem, OTL was standing at the back of the car drying us off but the rain was blowing the rain straight onto OTL's back. Now normally that wouldn't be a problem but today he didn't have his waterproof trousers on and ended up having to drive home with a soggy butt!

Mind you, he did have the heated seat on full blast!

Holly and I decided that it was best if we stayed under our covers for the morning and enjoy a warm snooze!

Safe & Warm in OTL's Office!
The only person working was OTL, everyone else was asleep!

Lunchtime comes and we all pretend we are still asleep 'cos we can hear the wind and the rain beating on the windows!

Holly had an urgent need to chase some pigeons that had landed in the garden but after taking two steps outside the kitchen door, turn a full one hundred and eighty degrees and shot back inside!

About one thirty, OTL announces that we are going out for a walk, not too sure about that but we play along with him. We were sure he knew something we didn't 'cos it was pouring down when we went out the front door!

When we arrived at the turning off to the car park, it had notices saying that the road was closed for 'Resurfacing'!

Well, that was it, rain and resurfacing!

Back home we went and landed up in the playing field behind our house where it was still wet but not raining!

It really wasn't the ideal place for a walk, all muddy like!

I asked if we could go home now.

Can I do a wee in the garden?
 Holly pointed out the path leading back home.


Look! I can see a quick way home!
 But OTL insisted on walking us all the way around the park, so we did a couple of wee's, just to keep him happy.

Holly even asked if OTL could climb up the tree and get a couple of the big cones so we could chase after them, in the direction of home!

Honking Great Cones!
When we finally got in, both Holly and I headed back to our sleeping places and returned to our well earned snooze!

This is the place to be, we can wee later!
So, not too sure what OTL has got for dinner tonight but we hope it will be 'Muggable'!

See you tomorrow, if the rain keeps off!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake and Mr Brambles.

A Wet Sunday with OTL.

Hello Woofers!

Us back again, Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake and Mr Brambles.

Well, today The Missus got us up before the dawn even got out of bed! She wanted Old Two Legs to give her a lift to a pickup point, leaving home at six forty five!

We decided to stay in bed until he got back, I mean, sitting in a car is OK if your going somewhere but just to go into town and back again? No Thanks!

Mind you, we didn't have a good night 'cos some Bozo's were letting off Whizz Bangs locally to us and Holly got all upset. So, learning from last year, we all had to go to bed, together, at eight thirty!

Holly cuddles up to OTL and gets off to sleep and managed to stop shivering!

So, early morning are just for OTL & TM us and the ferrets stayed in bed!

When OTL got back we all headed off to the beach, it was dripping with rain and we all got wet, the ferrets us and OTL!

Back home OTL was busy clipping the ferrets claws and cleaning out their house.

Holly and I got a dry using our own towel then OTL gave us a brush and our monthly dose of anti flea stuff. Then it was a lazy day watching the F1 qualifying and OTL decided to watch the recordings of Game of Thrones, which TM hates!

Lunchtime we went out again and as soon as we got onto the Sea Wall, it started to rain again!

We cut the walk short and headed back home again but not before OTL spotted a fungi on the foot path!

Rubbish Photo!
We all reckon that Brambles could have done better with one paw behind his back!

OTL got the call to pick up TM from town and off he went, leaving us snoozing the evening away!

So, we are looking forward to the F1 Racing tonight, starting at seven and claws crossed for no Whizz Bangs, especially as it is pouring with rain at the moment!

See you tomorrow and we are going to let OTL to get his big camera out tonight as the light is disappearing fast down here in North Kent!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake and Mr Brambles.

A quiet day, until the Postman arrived!

Hi Woofers!

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake and Mr Brambles here!

Wot a glorious sunny day it was yesterday! We were hoping that today would be the same but as we walked down to the beach we could feel little drops of rain. Old Two Legs was first to notice the rain 'cos he didn't have his hat on and his bald head is super sensitive to drops of rain!

Miss Snowflake got out of the ferret bag, did a wee and then turned around and spotted OTL had crouched down to tie his shoe lace, as quick as a flash, she was back inside the bag!

I reckon I could get back before he sees!
It didn't last too long 'cos OTL caught her before she could get back in and she spent ten minutes cuddled up in his arm watching us on the beach!

Mr Brambles found some old burnt out Whizz Bangs that some Two Legs had left on the beach after a party last night.

Mr Brambles thought that it was very irresponsible of them to leave all the rubbish on the beach.

There are some really mucky TL around!
I suggested we help by burying them all but OTL said it would take a big hole to get rid of it all!

Well, how about a small hole for a single Whizz Bang?
We carried on along the beach and Miss Snowflake stayed tucked up in OTL's arms until Mr Brambles called out that there were some Bozo Two Legs on bikes and one of them had called out that 'There are Rats on the beach'!

Bozo's on Bikes, Beware!
I mean, rats! Holly reckons that need to visit an optician or maybe get a book on animals, with pictures!

Look! Rats!
Back home The Missus had gone off to her Master Class. OTL dished up our Lambs Heart all chopped up into mouth sized bits, super stuff!

After having a good feed we headed towards our beds for a well earned snooze.

That was until the postman rang our door bell!

Of course, we went into 'Protection Mode' and nearly woofed the roof off!

The Postman, who's name is Richard, handed a load of envelopes to OTL and then said that he had a big envelope for Miss Daisy and Miss Holly!

What?

Us?

WOW!

We opened it and found that Archie Babe had sent us a Christmas Stocking each and some Mini Mouses for the ferrets!

That means we have our own stockings to hang up instead of the smelly socks we pinched off OTL last year!

A Super Big Thank You to Archie Babe and OTL has put them away in his cupboard so they are kept safe until Christmas!

Lunchtime it was really sunny, in fact, so sunny that if the tide had been in Holly said that she might have been tempted to go in for a paddle!

Trouble was, the tide was out!

Tides Out!
We met up with Freddy who had found a way around the tide problem.

Mud? No! There's a big marshy bit up there!
He had found the marshy bit where the cattle have been tramping around and went in for a splodge!

We looked at OTL but all he said was .......'NO'!

Never mind, TM will be home soon and we can show her our Christmas Socks and work our what we can get inside them!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake and Mr Brambles.

Sorting The Bozo's Out!

Hi Woofers!

Here we are again, Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake and Mr Brambles!

Wot a Super Day! Loads of sunshine and some fun as well!

It started off this morning when the ferrets were talking about 'The Big Ferret' who lives up in the clouds and looks after the ferrets that have crossed The Rainbow Bridge.

Holly wanted to know if there was a 'Big Woofer in The Sky' but no one had heard of that one and I thought that we may get lumped in with the Two Legs cos as it is said, we are a TL best friend!

Old Two Legs didn't have and information on the subject and was unsure what happens in the end.

Down on the beach, OTL took a picture and then he started to play around with the Photoshop program he has in his computer and then showed us that there was really a Big Ferret in the sky!

Mind you, it looks a lot like Brambles!

It's The Big Ferret in The Sky!
When the ferrets were on the beach, a woofer arrived on the Sea Wall and was taking too much interest in the ferrets. First he growled then he came down the steps, onto the beach and called out.........

Do they taste like chicken?
That was it, you don't try to mess with our family and think you can get away with it! Both Holly and I gave out our 'War Cry' and went woofing towards him.

Him being a Bozo of the First Order, turn tail and shot up the steps to get away from us!

I was only joking!
That sorted him out, silly woofer, thinking he could get away with that!

It was the same at lunchtime, there we were, having a gentle stroll along the Sea Wall when a couple of male Bichon Frise woofers came bounding up to us doing the old 'Look I'm Big and Butch'.

Well, they got just too close to both Holly and me and when OTL stopped and spoke to their owner we both did the 'Warning Growl' which roughly translated goes something like, 'GetYourSnottyWetNoseFromUnderMyTailOrI'llBiteBothYourLegsOffAndFeedThemToTheGulls!'


Gerroff Bozo!
Their owner got all worried and clipped them both on their leads!

That'll teach them some manners for next time!

Holly and I had a good chuckle after they had been marched off!

Sorted them out!
You don't mess with us and think you can get away with it!

The Missus is playing at Glue & Glitter all week end, so we reckon we will be able to watch the F1 racing without too much interference!

Have a good weekend!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake and Mr Brambles.

Back comes the sun and The Missus arrives back!

Hello Woofers!

Us again, Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake and Mr Brambles.

Old Two Legs was up good and early today, firstly to clear up all the carrot crumbs and bits of Dog Chews and Doggy Biscuits we had left all over the lounge carpet and the sofa!

Secondly, he wanted to try to get the bathroom floor finished before The Missus came home!

We headed off to the beach and when Miss Snowflake was poured out of the ferret bag, she said that it better not be raining or she would be straight back in the bag!


If it's raining I'm back in the bag!
Mr Brambles said she was just showing off and lead the way to the shore where he was testing the mud for 'Yuckyness'

Well, it feels a bit Yucky!
OTL was more interested in the little fungi he found on the path. He tried a shot but it wasn't too successful, too little light!

He really must get out the big camera and try again before the fungi goes back to sleep!


A 'Soft Focus Fungi'!
Back home OTL was bashing away at the flooring and at one point it looked like he may finish the floor before TM arrived.

We were standing guard at the bedroom window waiting for the car to turn into the road and when it did Holly and I were woofing like crazy until TM got into the house.

We gave her a good welcome home lick and a cuddle!

OTL was still in trouble 'cos he hadn't finished the bathroom and worse still, he hadn't put the door back on its hinges!

We escaped for a while down on the beach again at lunchtime and OTL spotted one of those bees that were featured on Autumnwatch the other night. So it looks like the bee has reached as far east as the Isle of Grain at least!

From the program we remember it makes its home in a sandy wall. It's just a pity I can't remember the name!

As seen on Autumnwatch!
Of course, I was really interested in this lot, I mean, can it sting me if I have a sniff?

Yes!

My 'Interest Level' drops to zero!


Can we go now?
 Later this afternoon OTL finished off the bathroom and even got the door put back!

Then it was back to the office to get some work done before the end of the month!

We have just finished our Lambs Heart and feel like we should be stretching out for a snooze, before OTL gets out the shortbread and nibbles!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake and Mr Brambles.

Where did the sun go?

Hi Woofers!

We're back, Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake and Mr Brambles.

What a day!

We were a bit lazy this morning and didn't wake Old Two Legs up until six thirty! Lucky lad had an extra fifteen minutes in bed!

Mind you, the weather wasn't the sunny morning we were expecting, instead it was all grey and misty and wet!

Old Two Legs was complaining about the camera not liking the dull weather and slowing the shutter speeds!

I can see it won't be long before he gets the big camera out 'cos it handles low light very well!

We went rushing off to see the rabbits but they were back in their warm burrows!

No Bunny's here!
 The ferrets weren't too happy about the misty rain that was falling down and making everyone wet and damp!

You know. we didn't even go on the beach 'cos OTL said we should really be in the warm!

This just Too Wet!
At the first chance Miss Snowflake was trying to get up OTL's leg and back in the bag but OTL said that if we were all in the wet then so should she!

Snowflake didn't think that was a good idea, so she showed off!

I wanna get back in The bag!
 There was a curlew on the beach having a poke around in the mud looking for some breakfast, so we left him to it and headed back to the car!

Anyone for breakfast?
Our Crop Circle display of sea shells had gone. Holly said that the UFO came back and 'cos it didn't get an answer it decided to try another planet!

OTL said that maybe when the weather gets better we could all try our paws at making a 'Shell Circle' of our own!

It's Gone!
 Heading back to the car a flock of geese flew over and Holly said that instead of Doggy Scoff, could she try a goose, roasted?

OTL said 'Yes' but only if you can catch one!

Back to Doggy Scoff!
 Now, we took a peek and Michael's blog and was most impressed with the pictures of the poppies at the Tower of London.

Putting aside the reason and the stories behind it all, we think they look super!

Michaels Blog

OK, OTL is still working away on the bathroom floor and is bitching about the pain in his knees!

I know it will be finished but not in time for The Missus to come back home to tomorrow. Maybe if she stayed away until Saturday, it may be finished.

Mind you, if she stayed away until Saturday we would have to put up with another Doggy Scoff dinner before she gets back, mmmmm!

Decisions, decisions!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake and Mr Brambles.

OTL The Builder!

Hi Woofers!



Guess Who? Yep! It's Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake and Mr Brambles here again!

Are we late tonight! This blog normally gets going about four thirty but today we have all been very busy!

It started this morning with an early run along the Sea Wall and onto the beach. The sun was out and it was hard to believe that we are just a few days away from November when we expect there to be loads of cold days and nights and frosts and stuff like that!


I just Love a Sunny Morning!
 Both Brambles and Snowflake tried to get back in the ferret bag after Old Two Legs had emptied them onto the beach!

Come on, it's my turn in the bag!
 OTL was having none of it and made them both walk all the way back to the car!

These are big pebbles!
 One thing we did spot was the sea shells, someone had re arranged them into a spiral circle!

Holly reckons that it is a bit like the 'Crop Circles' only done with sea shells!

A Message from the Stars?
Did you notice how all the hinge parts of the shells are pointing towards the centre?

Strange or wot?

Back home and OTL was sawing and screwing the floor boards in the bathroom and all the time complaining about having to crawl around on his knees!

Still, by lunchtime he had the boards down and was ready to start with the tiles.

We suggested that a run along the beach would be a good idea, just to help get him set up for the afternoons work!

Winter Sun?
Along the Sea Wall it was warm and sunny, and, well, if you didn't know it was October, I'd have thought it was early September!

If it keeps this up I can see me having a swim on Christmas Day without getting cold!

This afternoon OTL has been putting the tiles down and making a good job of it as well, even if he is a bit slow!

So, by the time he finished it was just gone five and both Holly and I were getting a little hungry, so OTL stopped work and cooked up our Lambs Heart, complete with a bit of gravy from the bottom of the pan!

It was great!

So, we are a bit late 'cos after all that, OTL had to cook his dinner, Pizza!

He does know how to live!

Not sure what tomorrow will bring, maybe another curry, unless he can find where The Missus hid the steaks!

See you all tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake and Mr Brambles.

Busy Watching OTL!

Hi Woofers!

Us here, Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake and Mr Brambles.

It has been a Busy Busy Day today, well, not for us woofers but Old Two Legs has been going around in circles again!

We set off this morning for our walk. The sun was up and it was quite warm. Holly and I got a sniff of some rabbits and we were off!

I See Them! I See Them!
 I was in front doing my 'War Cry' and Holly was steaming up behind me woofing like crazy!

Then the rabbits disappeared down the hole and we never saw them again!

Miss Snowflake was getting in trouble, again, and very nearly came to a wet end!

Oh Gawd! Not Again!
It was a good job Old Two Legs was there to rescue her!

On the way back Holly and I went off in search of rabbits again and I sort of got carried away. OTL and the ferrets headed for the car and Holly chased after them leaving me behind not knowing they had all gone.

OTL and the ferrets were getting close to the car when Holly thought it would be a good idea if I was appraised of the situation. So, she turned around, ran back and woofed at me to get my tail in gear or I'll be walking home!

It was a good job she did 'cos just as we came running around the corner, there was OTL heading back for the 'Final Warning'!

We got home and OTL was sitting down working out what he needs for the flooring in the bathroom. You see, the 'Emergency Plumber' sent by the insurance company, two days after being notified that we had the Niagara Falls pouring through our ceiling. I wonder when he would have arrived if we said it was just a drip!

Anyway, the plumber ripped up the flooring OTL had put down before and made a bit of a mess of the bathroom floor!

So, with calculator in hand and Wickes Web Page on the laptop, he was working out square metres of stuff.

We left him to it!

Then he left us at home and headed off to town to buy the stuff he had put into the square metres, or something like that!

He was crying again, so that means he has had to dip into his wallet, again!

Painful!

To help him get over it, we took him out for a walk on the beach. The tide was in so I found a stick, threw it at him and then jumped up and down woofing for him to throw the stick!

Throw It! Throw It! Throw That Blooming Stick, NOW!
He did and I had a great time swimming back and forth with the stick in my mouth!

There comes a time when we have to get back in the car and that means I have to dry off a bit. It's a two stage drying process, first of all I have to wring myself out!

Wringing Daisy Out!
Stage two is back in the car, OTL gets the towel out and gives me a good rub down to get even more water off and finally I cuddle up in the towel and OTL puts the heated seat on for me!

By the time we get home I'm almost dry!

Back home OTL has been measuring and sawing and cutting and mumbling to himself, so we keep out of the way!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake and Mr Brambles.
