Glue Slappers R Us!

Hi Woofers!

Us again, Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss Wendy and Freddy de Ferret!

It was a late night last night and so we didn't exactly get up at our normal time, Old Two Legs was all of ten minutes late in getting up!

Mind you, the ferrets were all fast asleep 'cos it was still dark!

Holly was tucked up next to OTL and I was in the office snoozing on my bed!

Down on the beach we had a good game. OTL had brought the rubber ball and although the tide was out we all had a good game of 'Chase the Ball' and 'Let's Bury The Ball'!

May was chasing me up and down the beach 'cos she wanted dig a hole and bury it.

Come on, Giss The Ball!

She got it a couple of times but in the end it was Holly and I who buried it at the bottom of a whacking great hole!

OK, That's deep enough!

What we didn't tell May was that while it looked like we buried the ball, in fact Holly had sneaked it away while May wasn't looking. So May was digging to find it but it wasn't there!

Just how far down is this ball?

 In the end OTL got the ball off us and wrapped it up in a Poo Bag and put it back in the ferret bag for tomorrow!

We got back home and found the Glue Slappers were still snoring their heads off! I mean, just how long do they sleep for?

Holly reckons they must be half ferret needing all that sleep!

Lunchtime we all headed down to the beach again and everyone was snapping away with their cameras. Freddy Boy was having fun by striking a pose and as soon as anyone lifted their camera to take a picture, he would turn his head away or poke his tongue out!

How's this for a 'Regale Look?'

OTL got instructions to take a photo of the 'Three Glue Slappers' while they rested on a bench. Holly and I kept a watch out for woofers 'cos the ferrets were allowed to run around in the grass on their own!

The finest bunch of Glue Slappers on the Beach!

Back home we watched the F1 Racing but to be honest, it was a bit boring, not much overtaking!

Mind you, we fell asleep half way through!

It's a good job The Missus recorded it all 'cos we can watch it during the week when the Two Legs are working!

I'm not sure what we got for dinner tonight but I can sniff the curry bubbling away on the cooker, so I think we may get a bit of Naan Bread dipped in the gravy, but nothing else!

See you all tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss Wendy and Freddy de Ferret!

OTL gets his Artwork!

Hi Woofers!

Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss Wendy and Freddy de Ferret back again!

Well, last night, just a bit later than we expected, The Glue Slappers arrived!

One is called Amanda but she is also known as Mandy!

Julie is the other and she is also known as Julie!

Well, they all said 'Hello' and Old Two Legs was presented with the Artwork that he so admired!

Today he mounted it in a frame and it is now hanging on the wall in the lounge!

It's Called 'Bubbles'!

Needless to say, last night they were all gassing away while Holly and I cuddled up to OTL and helped him eat his shortbread!

The Missus, Julie and Mandy spent the evening gassing and slurping the 'Giggle Juice' TM had stored in the fridge!

We all got up late this morning!

The Village Hall is where they are hiding today and they will be there until nine tonight!

This Glue Slapping can be habit forming!

First thing in the morning OTL gets his breakfast and the Lactose Free milk, Miss May is let out first thing and she heads for the milk, has a slurp and then rushes up a plastic tube and straight onto the desk where OTL has left a cap full of Ferretone for her to slurp!

OK, I'll get back to the milk later

 Down on the beach we watched a big ship being pushed and pulled about by a couple of small tugs!

Playing 'Push-me-Pull-You'

 Once again the sea was too rough for me to take a swim, so I just watched it for a while and then headed off to the sniffs!

I'm brave, but not stupid!

 This afternoon OTL has been working at 'Manufacturing' again so that means Holly and I get to have a good snooze on the sofa without TM telling us to 'Shove Over'!

This evening we are back on the sofa with OTL sharing his shortbread!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss Wendy and Freddy de Ferret!

Ten Degrees down and falling!

Hi Woofers!

It's Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss Wendy and Freddy de Ferret here!

Well, wot a change from yesterday!

We were out this morning and although there was rain in the air it was still muggy but there was slight breeze, enough to blow the Wind Power Generators over in Sheerness!

Making the most of the breeze, we saw a Thames Barge heading off towards London and in the distance there was a Sea Barge heading towards Sheerness!

Two ends of the energy spectrum!

 We met up with the Lads and Old Two Legs had to carry Miss May who was all twitchy about wanting to get down and have a run, but not with the woofers!

Finally OTL found some space and May had a great time digging in the sand and chasing sniffs on the top path!

OK? Ready for some sniffs!

Back home I had some fun helping OTL sort out some stuff in the loft. He carried me up into the loft then left me to have a sniff. He then came back to get his bits and also to sort out a picture frame for a special present he has been told he will get this afternoon!

So, with a bit of luck, we may have a super bit of artwork, framed and hanging on the wall before we have to hit the 'Publish' button!

The rain may have fallen in other places and caused flooding but so far we are suffering no more than a damp windscreen!

Down on the beach Freddy enjoyed a dig but got some sand up his nose and did a whacking great sneeze!

WAAAAH.....Tisssshoooooooo!

He has got to learn to hold his breath when he is snuffling in the sand!

I was contemplating a dip but when I saw the size of the waves I took an 'Executive Decision' and went off to investigate the sniffs!

Maybe not to day!

 When we got back home OTL took a look at the weather thingy and announced that it was fifteen degrees outside where over the last few days it has bee up around twenty eight degrees!

Autumn has arrived!

Holly and I have been looking out the window but there have been no strange cars, so that means the Glue Slappers haven't arrived yet!

Looks like you'll have to wait until tomorrow to see the artwork but believe me, it will be worth it!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss Wendy and Freddy de Ferret.

Make the Most of the Sun!

Hello Woofers!

Here we are again, Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss Wendy and Freddy de Ferret!

We were looking at the weather forecast this morning and the run of sunny days looks like it ends today! Tomorrow we should be back to floods and thunder and lightening and torrential rain storms but the afternoon should be 'Changeable'!

Mind you, it didn't stop me and May having a game of 'Dig the Ball' on the beach!

No! It's Mine!

 May was in and out of the hole and she even tried to hide the ball while I was trying to get some sand out of my eyes!

My turn to hide it!

 Of course, I got it in the end 'cos I'm bigger than her!

Mind you, I do have to watch her teeth 'cos they're blooming sharp!

Oi! That's cheating!

 Holly, sitting on the top of the sea wall said she was watching out for woofers who might want to chase a ferret!

I'm on Woofer Watch!

 Back home Miss Wendy had fun pinching socks from the pile of washing in the kitchen, she had trouble climbing the stairs while holding the sock in her mouth 'cos she kept stepping on the sock as she tried to jump up the next step!

I suppose we'll have to tell The Missus the sniffy socks are stored in her card room and there is one under the stairs as well!

Lunchtime we were down the beach again, Fred and Wendy decided they would come as well 'cos they wanted to play in the sand.

The tide was in, so Holly stayed up the beach, I went in swimming and Wendy decided to dig a ferret sized hole!

I'm going to miss this when Winter comes!

 Freddy tried to poke his nose in but Wendy told him to 'Woof Off' and chase Holly!

This is a 'Hole Lotta Fun'!

It was still a bit too hot so the ferrets got a carry on the way back to the car but as  was wet to my skin I didn't mind!

Back home we all fell asleep in Old Two Leg's office, except OTL who was playing on the computer doing something called 'Invoicing'! I don't really understand it but it seems to make him happy, so we let him get on with it!

We are expecting some 'Glue Slappers' tomorrow so we have been told to be on our best behaviour!

As if!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss Wendy and Freddy de Ferret.

Another Warm One!

Hi Woofers!

Us again, Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss Wendy and Freddy de Ferret!

Phew! It has been warm today!

This morning we were out first thing while it was still cool enough to have some fun on the beach!

Old Two Legs got the rubber ball out of the bag and we all had a game of 'Chase' along the beach.

My turn to dig it up!

Back home it was cage cleaning time and both sets of ferrets got to have a rampage around the house. Miss Wendy is always the first to get to the Ferretone and always has a look of sure pleasure as she slurps away!

This is just heaven!

 Of course, after a rampage and some stealing of our biscuits the ferrets have a snooze.

Freddy, who is a bit of a Guzzle Guts sometimes finds that he just can't make it to the bed!

I'm Full!

When lunchtime arrived we decided that it was just too hot to take the ferrets out so they stayed sleeping at home.

As it was warm I was straight into the sea getting my tail wet!

Holly on the other paw stayed up the top of the beach sniffing the sniffs!

Come on, find a stick!

OTL found a stick but it wasn't very big, more like a twig!

Mind you a stick is better than nothing!

I have trouble seeing this in the water!

Although I was wet through to my skin the warm sun was soon drying me off and a rub down with a 'Doggy Towel'  enabled me to go home almost dry!

OTL got another order in this afternoon so he has been busy, busy!

Hey guess what?

We have heard that Missy's mum is celebrating her birthday and she is .................................................

Oops!

We have run out of room!

Oh! Smack my tail! :-)

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss Wendy and Freddy de Ferret!

Too Hot for Ferrets!

Hi Woofers!

Here we are again, Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss Wendy and Freddy de Ferret.

Wow! Hasn't it been hot today?

Even this morning first thing it was almost too hot to walk all the way around, well, that's what Miss May said as she blagged a lift from Old Two Legs!

The sun reflection on the water looked good and of course OTL adjusted the camera so the sun didn't show!

Look! No Sun!

 May said that she could sniff the mink again on the beach but Holly and I couldn't find it anywhere.

Crabs, Ferrets, Old Dog and Holly, but no Mink!

We got back home to discover that OTL had to go out delivering stuff, well, there was no way he was going without us!

Off we went and after deliveries OTL filled the car up with petrol and while we were waiting Holly said that the air held a sniff she recognised, Doggy Shop!

Well, that was it, we both gave OTL a real woofing and we landed in the car park of 'Pets R Us', Holly and I went potty!

We haven't been here for ages so this was something special!

In we went and almost filled the trolley with goodies!

There was stuff for the ferrets as well, plus nibbles for our holiday next month, then there was nibbles for now and teeth cleaning chews as well!

We came out loaded up to the car roof, so we're OK for the holiday and the next month!

We were late in going out at lunchtime 'cos OTL was waiting for a delivery. Plus, we thought it  was just too hot to take Freddy and Wendy out but they wanted to come!

That means we had OTL and even The Missus came along as well!

First it was OK 'cos there was a cool breeze blowing but the ferrets soon decided that it would be a good idea if they got a carry from OTL!

It's no good! We both need a carry!

When we got back to the car both ferrets were straight in the water bowl while Holly and I had to wait!

After they had their drink Holly and I watched while OTL poured water over both of them to help cool them down a little!

Soggy Ferrets!

As soon as they were back in their cage Holly and I were nose deep into the water bowl!

Super Stuff!

Back home they got another rinse under the cold water tap!

Talk about Wriggly Ferrets!

We are off now for a snooze, this running around sure takes it out of us woofers!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss Wendy a a soggy Freddy de Ferret!

Yet another warm day!

Hi Woofers!

Us again, Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss Wendy and Freddy de Ferret!

It certainly has been warm today. First thing this morning there was a slight breeze that helped keep the temperature down a little so May was quite happy to play 'Dig and Whizz' on the beach. Old Two Legs was more interested in the sun and the reflection on the water!

Maybe we should have cropped the sun out?

Miss May was digging in a big hole and found my ball from yesterday! At first she wouldn't let me have it 'cos she said it was hers but in the end she gave in and I managed to get it out of the hole!

This ball has 'FERRET' written all over it!

 OTL threw it into the water a few times but he kept it close to the beach, just in case I decided to do some 'Deep Swimming'!

Easy, Easy, Easy!

 As OTL headed up the grass path with Fred and Wendy, I had a crafty roll on the beach and ended up with sprinkles all over my back!

Still can't get rid of the last few, no matter how hard I shake!

 When we got home OTL gave May and extra slurp of Ferretone as a sort of reward for finding the ball!

You just can't beat a good slurp!

 Lunchtime it was really hot, twenty seven degrees in the sun!

Down on our walk the ferrets were asking for lots of 'carries' from OTL.

We met up with some tourists and didn't they yap!

I thought Holly could woof but these two just kept on woofing their tails off! I mean, it wasn't even their beach!

Woofin' Tourists!

It was good to be back in doors. Freddy put his head in the water bowl and blew bubbles and OTL treated Wendy to a cold water splosh in the sink, just to help her cool down a bit before having her midday meal!

The afternoon has been spent snoozing in our favourite bed and OTL has been sending off invoices which is his most favourite game, second only to seeing the BACS payments on his bank statement!

See you all tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss Wendy and Freddy de Ferret!

A Real Lazy Sunday with OTL

Yo Ho Woofers!

It's us again, Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss Wendy and Freddy de Ferret here again!

You know, it's getting to be a habit with Old Two Legs, come Sunday morning he decides to have an extra half an hour snoozing in bed!

You know it took Holly and me to wake him up this morning, Holly licked his bald head while I gave his ear a good licking!

That always gets him going!

Finally we ended up on the beach and the tide was right in, just right for a swim and a splash!

Oh! Decisions Decisions!

I managed a paddle but Miss May said she had sniffed some interesting sniffs on the way down and wanted to ask our 'Professional Opinion'!

Well, we hadn't come across this particular sniff before. It was a bit like ferret, a bit like a Weasel and sort of Stoat but not, if you know what I mean!

What about Mink? I mean, there was a mink farm down the road years ago!

 We all had a really good sniff and even tried to follow the trail but it ended in the bushes and OTL didn't want us to go any deeper into the bushes.

It will be interesting if we get any more sniffs!

Lunchtime we were down the beach with the rubber ball. No water, just the ball and sand!

Miss Wendy was having a great time!

I LOVE sandy holes!

Of course, Freddy just had to join in the Big Dig!

Gerroff! this is a Ferret Hole!

What was worse, there I was, digging my hole and putting the rubber ball down the bottom and then digging it out again.

Along comes Freddy Boy and throws me out of the hole and proceeds to bury my ball!

I've been robbed!

You know, you just can't keep a good woofer down and in the end I managed to get my ball back, Freddy was not too pleased but I didn't care, it was MY BALL!

This is My Ball!

Back home and we have a lazy afternoon, OTL fell asleep and The Missus was even snoozing as well!

The weather looks good for tomorrow, so I expect to get a swim in the morning, if OTL lets me!

See you tomorrow.

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss Wendy and Freddy de Ferret.

Three walk day!

Hello Woofers!

Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss Wendy and Freddy de Ferret here!

Well, what a fun Saturday! We started off this morning with The Missus pinching the car to take all her stuff up the village hall for the 'Master Class'. It was lucky that we had taken our bed and water bowl out before she loaded it all up, well, just think of the glitter and glue that could have been hiding in the bed! I mean, we'd have a Glittery Butt and a sticky nose!

Down on the beach the tide was on the turn and I just fancied having a little 'Splash' but Old Two Legs said that we were going out and if I did dip my claws in the water I would have to stay at home!

.....but they are having a swim!

 Holly Chops, as usual, was staying well away from the water and just wandering along the Sea Wall.

I don't do wet!

Miss May was enjoying the sniffs with us, she has a good nose for sniffs, even though most are Ferret type of sniffs, you know, Weasels and Stoats and Mouses and Shrews and stuff like that!

Look! It's a Shrew wee trail and it's just behind you!

Holly was interested in the technical side of Weasels sniffs 'cos she reckons that they are very similar to Ferret sniffs. May confirmed that Weasels were part of the family and maybe that is why there was a similarity!

yeah, and we got Otters and Skunks and Pole Cats in the family as well!

Back home we had a snooze while OTL did the cages and then we were off to pickup a new adding machine that OTL had given to his bookkeeper but for some reason it wasn't working. When we got there OTL had a fiddle but couldn't make it work so he brought it back home for 'Further Investigation'!

While we were on our way back we got close to Riverside Park which has some super sniffs 'cos it is surrounded by sea weed and mud!

Serious sniffs!

We got home and OTL said that it was time for the ferrets to have a walk so it was out again and we also had the promise that we could call into the Village Hall to say hello to all the Glitter Girls there.

TM had said OTL could arrive after one to say hello but Freddy and Wendy were a bit slow getting off the beach.

Come on, the Village Hall is full of stuff to mug, especially at lunchtime!

Well, we got to the Village Hall about a quarter to two and there was TM waxing lyrical about glue slapping! That was just not on! I mean, we got loads of strokes and we said hello to Archie Babes Mum and there was loads of strokes from the ladies.

But No Food!

Fred and Wendy got strokes and tickles as well but we could see that there really wanted to get on with their glue slapping!

TM said she had some treats for us from Archie Babe and we just feel like 'Lucky Puppies', I mean, Archie is very naughty but we all send big thanks and licks!

OTL says he thinks there is Curry tonight, so that means we may get a bit of Nan Bread dipped in the juice!

See you all tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss Wendy and Freddy de Ferret.

The Woofermobile goes to the menders!

Hi Woofers!

It's us again, Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss Wendy and Freddy de Ferret!

It's been a bit of a strange one today.

Old Two Legs was up at five this morning, a whole hour earlier than normal!

He had breakfast and had cleaned May's cage before we headed off to the beach!

We had seen the sun come up and the red sky as we travelled down to the beach and by the time we got there it was all yellow!

It's a Sun Kissed Ferret!

 I was trying to decide should I go in for a dip but OTL said if I did I'd have to stay at home while he and Holly went out!

I wasn't going to have that!

So I just had a little paddle when OTL was looking the other way!

To bathe, or not to bathe, that is the question!

 Back home we were in and out like a shot. The Missus took the Woofermobile while OTL, Holly and I glided along in the big car!

About three quarters of an hour later we pulled up at the menders where OTL had got the car from and while we waited, OTL 'Booked it In'!

Seems that after two thousand miles or so it had to have its 'first Service' which OTL reckons is a change of oil and maybe screw the nuts down on the engine!

After that it was back home again to let Fred and Wendy out of their cage for a 'Rampage' while OTL got into 'Poo Shovelling Mode'!

Both Fred and Wendy love a game with the brown paper shopping bags 'cos they make a super noise when you give them a good scratch with your claws!

OTL puts the ferrets in the bag then dives in to tickle their tummies!

Great fun!

Come lunchtime we headed off to the beach again in the big car, walkies in style!

Mind you, it didn't last long. just as we were settling down to a 'Dig and Whizz' OTL got a telephone call.

Oh Gawd! He has got the phone out, that means trouble!

 Seems one of his customers was in urgent need of some stuff that OTL 'Engineers' for them but they wanted it up in the north of Scotland by Monday!

That was it, back home we went and OTL went to work! I mean, it is Friday afternoon when everything should be slowing down and there he is, working!

I'm glad I'm a Woofer!

Well, in the end he managed to get it off to the carriers in time and then it was a rush to get down to the menders to pick up the Woofermobile!

So much traffic on the road! It took ages to get down there but in the end we made it before they shut for the weekend.

So, here we are back home and pounding away at the keyboard!

There is always something for a woofer to do!

Have a good weekend!

See you tomorrow.

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss Wendy and Freddy de Ferret.
