Getting Better all the time!

Yacky Dar Woofers!

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake and Mr Brambles back again!

Well, today there were no jobs for Old Two Legs to fix, the cutlery draw is broken beyond repair, so OTL will have to do something with it when we get home. Well, that's what he said anyway!

Both Holly and I have the Grumbly Tum, not sure what has caused it but we are feeling a little 'Tender' around the 'Third Eye'!

OTL had to get up at Two Thirty this morning to let us both out 'cos we were getting desperate!

By the time he had found his trousers and boots we had disappeared into the bushes and didn't come out for about ten minutes!

If anyone had looked out of their caravan window they would have seen a strange looking Two Legs wandering around with a small torch whispering 'Daisy, Holly, Where the Woof are you two?' 

Good Fun!

We both cuddled up to OTL and felt a little better but he says we are on 'Sensible Food' until our tummies settle down!

Mind you, OTL is not too well himself. That nasty TM has given him her cold and when he went looking for the 'Day & Night' Tablets, they were all empty!

So, after getting us all sorted this morning, we headed off into town to find a pharmacy. 

After getting the pills and two boxes of tissues and 'Something for a sore throat' we headed back to the beach!

It was brilliant!

Holly had a splash in the stream, well, she stopped just when the water started to splash her 'Bits', she doesn't do 'Wet Bits'!

I think this is far enough!
Then off we went, charging  along the beach, woofing at the waves and all the other woofers on the beach!

It's running down my legs!
 We climbed all over the rocks and dug a few holes!

Holly doing 'Free Climbing'!
You know we even forgot we had Grumbly Tums!

We both had super rolls on the sand and you know what? OTL lets us!

This is how you do a roll on the sand and a rock!
 Holly headed into the middle of the beach and had a BIG ROLL!

This is better than a Rawhide Chew!
Then I tried a bit of 'Body Surfing', that is where you ride the wave using just your tummy!

A Super Surfing Beach Babe!
I said that Holly would be great at that, on account of the size of her tummy, but that would mean getting her bits wet, so that was out!

Thus Far and No Further!
Mind you, she did try to mug the bit of wood I had found floating in the surf!

Come on! Gissa Lick!
Back at the caravan we crashed out and had a super long snooze in the sunshine while OTL was using up the tissues to wipe his nose!

It's a good job he got two boxes of Ultra Soft & Silky, 'cos his nose is a bit sore from continued blowing and wiping!

TM was in the awning splodging about with a bucket of glue and a sack of glitter and two dozen sea shells and a string of dried sea weed, we think she is trying some sort of sculpture!

How she will get that on a card we have no idea!

We were thinking about another run on the beach but to be honest, we are just too tired!

See you all tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake and Mr Brambles.

Yacky Dar Woofers!

Yo Ho Woofers!

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake and Mr Brambles here in sunny South West Wales!

Sorry we didn't get to do our blog yesterday but we didn't get down here until late, (The Missus kept on stopping for a wee!)

We didn't even get the ferret tower up until today!

Well, after doing a few minor repairs on the electrical system Old Two Legs had problems with the water system. There he was pumping water into the water tank and TM telling him that the tank was empty!

It then dawned on him, the stopcock was open and the water was pouring out as fast as he could pump it in!

Then the pump stopped working and he had to rig an emergency power to the pump to make it all work!

We managed to get a seriously good walk this afternoon.

We went down to the beach and wow! What a beach! It is enormous and loads of sand everywhere!

Just look at this Playground!
Holly and I were running around like Potty Puppies and Holly was trying to plough a furrow by using her nose!

Then she rolled all over the place on her back and was wriggling her butt to wobble down the beach!

I dug a few holes and got sand all over me!

Best thing was, OTL didn't tell us off, instead he was laughing his head off!

There was a stream running down the beach and into the sea, I splashed about in it but Holly jumped over it, she doesn't like wet paws!

and I made this Sand Castle!
Then I dug another hole!

Digging a Big Hole!
OTL hasn't got his camera out yet, so the photos are from TM's Eye Fone!

We have a Doggy Walk on the camp site but it's not really big or long enough for us, just OK for a wee, so Holly and I will insist that we go down the beach more often!

It has been sunny and warm and we are looking forward to a super holiday, except Thursday when we expect loads of rain and wind!

We are not worried 'cos we have had some blowy times up in Scotland and on top of that, we have got our rain coats!

Big Waves!
The waves are rather bigger than at home, OTL says it has something to do with the fact that there is just open ocean out there and nothing to stop the wind and waves!

Just what it will be like on Thursday we are not sure but it will be fun!

We are off for a short walk now and then we'll be mugging OTL for some nibbles!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake and Mr Brambles.

A Day that started with a Bang!

Hi Woofers!

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

It has been all rush and tear today, it started off with a bit of a bang. You see, they are demolishing the Grain Power Station and today they pushed over a small chimney, but didn't tell us!

There we were, having a stroll when all of a sudden there was a terrific crashing sound and there appeared a big cloud of dust over the top of the trees!

Was that a Bomb?
 It certainly made the ferrets jump!

Wot the Rats Tail was that?
Mr brambles got all concerned and ran up to ask if we were safe?

Dunno, shall we ask Old Two Legs?
OTL said that it was one of the Power Station Chimneys and we shouldn't worry!

Down on the beach we spotted that the barge with the long legs was back, we reckon it was having a rest 'cos it was Sunday!

Back for a rest!
 When we got back home OTL asked if we wanted to try a Marrow Bone.

A Wot?

Marrow Bone?

Wossat?

It's a bone with the marrow in the middle!

Wot's Marrow?

Very tasty and good for Woofers!

OK, let's have a look.

Then I started off with a lick, then I licked some more, then I started to nibble a bit and then I got into chewing and.........

Yum, Yum, Yum, Yum, Yum, Yum, Yum, Yum,Yum!
 Holly of course wanted a lick but I soon told her to Woof Off, in no uncertain terms!

This is MINE!

OTL asked Holly if she wanted one and of course she beat OTL back down to the fridge!

Then after OTL got the wrapping she ran back to the office and onto her cushion and all we heard for the next hours was ..........

Yum, Yum, Yum, Yum, Yum, Yum, Yum, Yum,Yum!Yum, Yum, Yum, Yum, Yum, Yum, Yum, Yum,Yum!
OTL originally had the idea that the ferrets would love a marrow bone and the bone would help get rid of some tartar on Brambles teeth.

First of all, the ferrets have got to start eating the marrow bone but all they did was to sniff the bone then went back to their bed and fell asleep!

So, as I'm typing this, they still haven't touched it. Do you thing they would give it to me to lick?

Lunchtime we were rushing about getting all our stuff in the caravan ready for tomorrow morning. OTL says that we can have another marrow bone on our way down to the caravan site!


Bring out yer Bones!
 OTL and The Missus have been searching high and low for the thing that measures the nose weight of the caravan. We have to do that 'cos TM has a habit of overloading the caravan with card making stuff which makes it unbalanced!

We are off tomorrow early, so we may be a bit late with the blog tomorrow!

Bye bye for now.

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake and Mr Brambles.

A Brilliant Day With Mates!

Hi Woofers!

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake and Mr Brambles here!

What a super day it's been!

We were up really early today so Old Two Legs could get The Missus up the village hall ready for her 'Master Class'.

We helped her put the tables out and then headed off to walk with the ferrets down on the beach.

Down on the mud was a lone Wormy Man digging for all his worth!

Come out Wormy Wormy!
Both ferrets had a run around and Snowflake was playing Hide n Seek in the Sea Weed!

Can't see me!
We got back home and while we were having our breakfast, OTL did the Poo Pots and the ferrets had a 'Rampage' around the house before going back to bed for a snooze!

Pretty soon we were off back to the hall to meet up with Archie Babe and Maizey.

Archie was there waiting for us and we all said hello with a sniff and then he had a cuddle with OTL and a lick on his nose!

Pretty soon Maizey arrived and we all had chat while OTL was loading up the car!

Then we were off, back down to the beach where we started off by sharing our 'Start Sniff'!

OK Woofers, this is the first one!
 Maizey was interested in a small sniff by the rubbish bin and I must say, I missed it this morning when I cam past!

Mmm! A delicate little sniff!
 Down the path a bit we showed them the 'Long Sniff'!

This is a sniff that I reckon four woofers could sniff at the same time without rubbing shoulders!

We call this  The Long Sniff!
Down on the beach we introduced Maizey and Archie to the Rope Thingy that is still hanging around on our beach, Archie did a wee over it, just to show his disgust at the Ropey Things refusal to clear off!

Clear Off!
Off the beach there were loads more sniffs and Maizey said that we were so lucky to live near a place that had so many wonderful sniffs!

These are really wonderful sniffs!
 Half way up the path Maizey found our 'Stand By Sniff' which we save for our special visitors!

Yeah, this is the 'Special'!
 Back home we all had some food and then had a snooze. I headed up to my favourite spot on the bed while Holly crashed out on the sofa.

Maizey was feeling a little lost, so OTL picked her up and she cuddled up to his legs while Archie Babe sprawled out over OTL's lap and fell asleep!

We woke up after an hour or so and after a nibble and a drink we woofed at OTL 'Walkies'!

Down on the beach again Maizey and Archie spent some time investigating the shore line and the sea weed sniffs

Hey Maizey, what about this one?
Archie was having a great time with the sea weed sniffs! He says that he doesn't get any sea weed where he lives and none of the water was salty like wot we got!

These are terrific sniffs girls!
While Archie was into the sea weed, I started to dig a hole, just for fun! Maizey asked if she could have a go?

My Hole!
Then she wiggled he tail, stepped into the hole and had a wee!

A Girls gotta do what a Girls Gotta Do!
 Archie came back up the beach and had a little sniff around the hole!

Have I got sand on my chops?
 Archie was investigating everything along the beach and was fascinated with the breakwaters!

Hey! Look at that!
 Then he found a 'Beach Sniff' and couldn't resist a little roll!

Oh Yes! I'm going to take this one home with me!
 We got back home and OTL let us all out into the garden. Now, Archie Babe is an expert regarding frogs and we asked him if he would inspect our pond and see if there were any frogs around!

First he had a look where OTL had put the Frog Spawn!
 'Mmm', he said, I can't see any signs here but they may have moved away! Then he went around the corner and inspected the shallow end.

Nothing here girls!
Finally, he had a good look under where the clothes line is and, nothing, not even a tadpole!

Plenty of snails and beetles and little wriggly things but not a frog to be seen!

Sorry Girls, your Frogless!
It wasn't long before OTL had to take Maizey and Archie back up the hall, so we all said good bye and promised to meet up again soon!

Now we are off for a snooze, it's been an exciting day and we are just too tired to mug OTL!

Bye for now,

Luv

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake and Mr Brambles.

Getting ready for our Friends!

Hello Woofers!

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake and Mr Brambles back with you!

It's the last day of working for Old Two Legs and he has been running around like a Blue Tailed Fly!

We went out for our morning stroll this morning and the tide was right out. That means the ferrets go for a good rummage around in the sea weed looking for monsters and the such!

This is getting squelchy!
Of course, Holly and I got a bit bored waiting for them to come off the beach and even Holly was thinking about having a snooze while she was waiting!

Oh! Come On!
Up on the grass path Holly was talking with Brambles about the different styles of dancing. Holly is into dancing and asked if Brambles knew any other types of dance.

'Of course'! he says, then launches himself into a 'Ferret Break Dance'!

Mr Brambles doing a Break Dance!
He was getting really steamed up, leaping about a spinning around on his back, and singing at the same time!

Then he started to 'Bang The Drums' with his front paws and making a drum sound with his mouth!

Well, we think it was his mouth!


Getting on Down!
Then, we heard a woof from back down the path and young Dave the Westie came running to catch us up!

Dave and us having a game!
We all had a good game of 'Chase the Woofer' until he was called away.

He told us of some sniffs down the path that we are going to save for Archie and Maizey when they get here tomorrow!

Holly is getting excited about meeting Archie Babe again and getting some pointers of hunting frogs, we still haven't seen a frog or a tadpole anywhere in the pond, just snails and diving beetles!

OTL has been out most of this afternoon but he came back and started to pack all our stuff ready for our holiday!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake and Mr Brambles.

I got a Big Splosh as Well!

Hi Woofers!

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake and Mr Brambles here!

Wot a super sunny day! Except for the wind, but we don't mind that too much providing there is some sun!

The ferrets were having great fun on the beach, chasing each other around and then they even tried to chase me!

It started off with Snowflake chasing Brambles.

Sneaky Sneaky, catch a Ferret!
 It was lucky that Brambles saw her coming!

In yer Dreams Snowy!
Well Mr Brambles didn't let her get too close but he let her do the chasing, he was in a right mood for a game!

Then he spotted me!

Touch my tail Bumbles and your History!
 Of course, I didn't let him get too close, I know he has strong teeth!

I did laugh when he said he could dance, not Line Dancing like wot Holly and I do but what he calls 'The Ferret Shuffle'!

Just to prove it, he gave a quick demonstration, to be honest, it looked like 'Conga'!

Do, Do, Do the Ferret Shuffle, Kick!
Both ferrets enjoyed a long Ferret through the long grass and Holly and I did some digging after what I think was a mouse!

I had earth all over my chops!

Lunchtime Old Two Legs had to do some deliveries and as promised, we went for a walk in the Riverside Park.

First of all we met up with a Westie we had met before and we had a three way sniff and she told us about some sniffs on the path!

There's a good one at the fork in the path!
Off we went and I noticed that the tide was right in, in fact it couldn't get any further in without flooding everything!

So, what am I going to do?

Well, this new stuff OTL has put onto our backs to keep the Ticks away, it sort of 'Itches' and it is driving me potty! So, what better than a dip, in fact a big dip, a really big Splosh!

I was in before OTL could say no!

Ooooo, that's Better!
Now Holly has been suffering as well, but not as much as me, but even she decided to have a dip. Let's face it, Holly's idea of a dip is a bit like wot I would call a paddle!

No, this is deep enough for me!
 While I was Sploshing away, OTL decided to try a Yellow Filter Free Photo and he planned to work on it when he got home.

Now even we reckon it's not too bad!

Clouds, a Wreck and a Power Station, all in one shot!
 Down the end of Horrid Hill, Holly and I had a run around to get dry while OTL tried to photograph us charging about.

Do we look like sisters or wot?
 A great time was had and we even saw a rabbit on the way back but it was too far away for us to catch and anyway, it was just too hot to chase it!

So, off we go to see what is worth mugging tonight and any more suggestion about turning us into 'Pack Animals' will get you a visit from the Ferrets and us!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake and Mr Brambles.

Another day of ever decreasing circles, and I get really 'Pongy'!

Hi Woofers!

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake and Mr Brambles back again!

Did we have some fun this morning!

We all went down stairs when Old Two Legs called us for our walk, the ferrets jumped into their cage and Holly and I expected our lead to be clipped on.

But no! OTL was there with our rain coats!

Now, as soon as Holly and I see that, we sort of 'Back Off' 'cos we just don't like the rain and Rain Coats normally mean rain, loads of it!

When we stepped out the front door there was hardly any rain at all, 'Goody Goddy' says Holly and heads for the car.

As we get closer to the car park, the rain drops get bigger and more of them as well but when we got to the car park, no rain!

Off we go, chasing a rabbit or two and sniffing the sniffs all along the path until we got to the beach where both ferrets jumped out of the bag and began to 'Ferret About' !

The Long Legs was still over in Sheerness and looked rather impressive in the morning light, well, that was until the rain clouds rushed across the River Medway and rained on Sheerness!

Who is for a quick wash?
Then it happened, the heavens opened up and down came the rain, onto us! There was loads of rain and some strong wind as well which blew us all the way back to the car.

We got soaked and so did the ferrets and so did OTL!

The weather was terrible and OTL managed to get a shot of it as it chased us all the way back!

Terrible Stormy Weather!
Back at the car, the ferrets got a rub down first and then popped back into their travelling cage.

Next it was Holly and my turn to get a rub down. However, by the time we had all got dried off, the towel was as wet as OTL!

So, he didn't get a rub down, he had to wait until he got home and changed his clothes!

Lunchtime it wasn't much better, there was still rain splashing about but we managed to get a quick walk along The Sea Wall.

OTL was mumbling about not bringing the Yellow Filter out with him to photograph the clouds!

Where's a Yellow Filter when you need one?
While he was looking up into the clouds, I found a sniff, a Super Sniff', a big soggy sniffy Pongy type of sniff that almost blew my tail off!

So, what did I do?

Yep!

I had a roll, a really good roll, a roll that went from my left back leg, over my back and down my right leg!

It was super!

OTL spotted me and tried to tell me off and called me a Pongy Puppy!

Did I care?

No!

Well, not until we got home and I got washed by The Missus who just kept on about how Pongy I was, as if there was something wrong with that!

OTL headed off out on his own to do deliveries and a bit of shopping for the holiday.

He came back with a new pump for the water in the caravan and some pegs to hold down the awning and some blue stuff to put down the loo and some gas for the cooker and a pretty blue rubber football to go over the ball hitch on the car!

Then there was a couple of other bags that were far more interesting!

We could sniff chicken fillets and chews and cat litter (for the ferrets poo tray), and there were some teeth cleaning chews!

Yum Yum!

Holly says that she is going to try for a chew tonight, just to get us in the 'Holiday Mood'!

OTL has been playing with the photo of the clouds and changed it all around to make it look like a Yellow Filter job!

A big dollop of Photoshop and it's getting close!
So, that's it today, OTL has never had so many phone calls in one week, do you think that his customers know he is going on holiday and are panicking in case they haven't got all their stuff?

Tomorrow, we expect to go down to the Riverside Park 'cos there are some final bits to be delivered!

See you all tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake and Mr Brambles.
