The sun brings them all out!

Hi Woofers!

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

Wot a super sunny day!

We have been out for walkies, we've been chasing rabbits, digging holes and woofing at strangers!

This morning first thing we were down on the beach, I went in for a paddle while Old Two Legs played about taking pictures into the sun, which shouldn't really come out but..........

Can you see the geese flying in formation?

The ferrets couldn't see them and neither could we, until OTL processed the photo!

Talking of not seeing, there has been a massive growth in the weed population along the Sea Wall and it not only hides the ferrets but today it almost hid Holly Chops!

Holly hiding in the new growth!

 All the ferrets thought it was a great laugh seeing Holly trying to hide 'cos they can hide quicker than a flash!

One more step and I'll disappear all together!

 Even Miss Wendy claimed she could disappear behind a blade of grass!

Now you see me.

 And................................................

Now you don't!

 Eric decided it wasn't worth hiding 'cos it was too hot to play silly games and instead climbed up onto OTL's shoulder to watch out for strange woofers and Nargles!

It's really too hot to run around!

It was amazing just how many Two Legs there was on the beach and along the Sea Wall.

OTL reckons it is the fact it's 'Half Term' plus the sunshine and the fact the Beach Cafe was open that brought them all down to our beach today!

Just wait until it rains, they will all stay at home then!

Good news, it's Friday tomorrow, the sun will still be here and we are expecting the tide to be right in so I can have a swim!

Bye bye for now!

Luv,

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

Lost Polly Chops and OTL has been 'Engineering!

Hi Woofers!

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

What a day it's been!

First we hear that Auntie Chris had a successful operation on her knee and they even had her out of bed and tearing around the ward on a zimmer frame!

Wonder what foot she uses on the brake pedal!

Old Two Legs has been working hard on the caravan, getting those little jobs done that start off being 'Easy Peasy' and somehow develop into a major engineering project!

Now, take the cap on the water tank, it was leaking  but there were no signs of why. So, starting at the cap he started to unscrew the whole system. Finally he found it was the cap that had developed a crack in the moulding. So, get on the Internetty and order another. He found the manufacturer and the list of spare bits. He located the cap but found that the description was for a 5" cap. Armed with his trusty 12" engineers ruler, he measured all over the cap but couldn't find any dimension that was 5"!

No 5" here either!

So, that means a long telephone discussion with the man on the telephone followed by a long email with loads of pictures of the cap and the tank and the labels on the side showing batch numbers and other stuff!

While this was going on, OTL was 'Mending' the broken cap by drilling holes at the ends of the crack and then filling the crack with a water proof glue that should set hard in 24hours!

The new cap should be here on Friday, with any luck!

Now if you thought that was a bit long and boring, I won't tell you about the central heating duct under the bed or the catch in the cupboard or the water filter and the leak on the water pump and finally, the slat on the bed, that's all another story!

With all that going on he didn't have much time to spend on the beach. Holly and I were sniffing while OTL was on the phone chasing caps and even the ferrets got fed up listening to him going on about 5" dimensions that weren't there!

What OTL hadn't noticed was a strange woofer on the beach. Now Holly saw that the ferrets were having a dig while OTL was somewhere in the clouds going on about inches. So, it was up to Holly to make sure this new woofer didn't get close to our ferrets 'cos we remember what happened to Wilma when she met u p with a strange woofer!

Holly keeping an eye of the woofer!

In the end the woofer wandered off in the opposite direction, so all was well.

Well, that was until we came across little Poppy, sitting in the middle of the path, with none of her mates or even her Two Legs!

Seems she got a little lost while she was having a sniff and everyone had wandered off!

We stayed with her for a while and OTL gave her a stroke and a tickle on her tummy until her TL appeared over the top of the hill to collect Poppy!

So, we just come in from the caravan and OTL is down stairs eating dinner while I get full use of the laptop!

See you all tomorrow!

Luv,

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

It's all happening today!

Yo Woofers!

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

Wot a day we have had today, first of all Auntie Chris has gone into hospital for an operation on her knee. She is hoping that it will cure the 'Slice' she has developed. (Technical Golfing Term!)

So loads of licks and wags and get out soon!

We met up with some of the lads this morning and young Poppy wanted to stay with Old Two Legs so she could have her tummy tickled but even before she could give OTL a lick on his nose she had her lead clipped on, which stopped her from rolling onto her back!

This is just Not Fair!

 Yesterday it was super sunshine and warm balmy breezes but today it was cloud and rain! In fact today we had 1.5mm of rain through our rain gauge!

Still got Sheerness but the sun has gone!

Holly and I helped OTL in the caravan. You see the light switch in the shower unit had died so OTL had to get a new light and today we fitted it in. It involved drilling and screwing and sticking with water proof gunky stuff!

Of course, The Missus wanted to inspect the job and insisted on wiping her fingers over the water proof gunky stuff so she had gunky all over her fingers!

Wot a plonker, well that wasn't exactly what OTL said but it was close!

Then, this afternoon TM got OTL to set up the camera and lights so we could do a demonstration on card making. You should have heard her!

But Dahling, Just What is my Motivation?

As OTL said, I'll motivate you with a tube of Gunky Stuff in your ear if you don't get going!

Well, that didn't work and in the end we had to postpone filming until Thursday 'cos we 'Lost the Light'!

This film making business is soooooo Technical!

I'm off to see what is for dinner!

See you all tomorrow!

Luv,

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

and TM came to!

Hi Woofers!

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

Wot a start to the day! It was all mist and foggy and of course, when we got to the beach, Sheerness had gone, again!

Guess wot we lost?

Wendy was most upset that Sheerness had gone 'cos just doesn't like loosing places she says hello to every day, well, most days when there's no mist!

Back home Old Two Legs worked his tail off cleaning the cages before he headed off to the dentist where they stabbed and drilled holes in his teeth and the filled it all in again!

What was worse, they charged him a fortune for the pleasure of hurting him!

These TL's are really strange!

OTL came back home just in time to take us down to the beach again and this time the mist had been blown away, Sheerness had returned and Eric had a great time digging in the sand!

Just for a change, The Missus came with us down to the beach 'cos she wanted to do some shopping, not on the beach but at the Co-op!

I think I'll dig another hole!

 Now, did you know it it 'Half Term'? That's when all the Mini TL's stop going to school and spend all day riding around on their bicycles!

We met up with loads of them and of course, they all wanted to stroke the ferrets!

We couldn't hang about too long 'cos OTL had an appointment with the 'Professor' at the hospital to find out if they had sorted his nose out!

The results were that his nose is working OK now but the inside of his nose is 'Wonky'!

Holly says that has always been the problem with OTL and it's not only his nose is wonky!

So, that's it for today, we lost and found Sheerness, OTL lost more money and found out he was 'Wonky'!

You just couldn't make it up!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

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

A Laid Back Lazy Sunday!

Yo Woofers!

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

Don't you just love Sundays like this? I mean, it has been sunny, in fact so sunny that Old Two Legs didn't wear his hat at all today!

He went out with just a jacket, no hat, no gloves!

You can tell the Spring is here!

Even Holly was in a good mood!

We met up with Bert down on the Sea Wall and Holly played up to Bert something rotten!

Poor old Bert is in love with Holly but all she does is to play the Tart and give him the run around!

Just a weeny Kiss for Bert!

First she ran up to him and planted a kiss on his nose then, before he had a chance to return the kiss, she ran around the back of him, just beyond the length of his lead!

Come on! Lets play on the beach!

Bert was all ready for a game on the beach but OTL gave a whistle and called Holly to stop her winding up Bert any more!

Sorry, gotta go OTL calling me!

When we got down to the beach at midday there were loads of cars in the car park, in fact we had never seen it so full.

The sunshine certainly had brought out the Two Legs and loads of woofers!

Of course, OTL had to be very careful to keep the ferrets out of harms way from strange woofers and that stopped him from taking picture of us playing on the beach!

On the way home we dropped into see The Missus at the village hall and while we waited, who should come out to see us?

It's Auntie Rosie!

Holly and I got a stroke and a cuddle and Miss May not only got a cuddle but OTL got his camera out to take a picture!

May gets a cuddle from Auntie Rosie!

Eric got a cuddle as well but OTL missed that picture!

Tomorrow OTL has another trip to the dentist in the morning and a hospital visit in the afternoon!

Nothing to really worry about, the dentist is going to mend a filling that is 'Wobbly' and the hospital are checking up on a minor operation OTL had a while ago!

It's a good job it's only the dentist he has to pay for!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

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

Sunshine and Ferrets!

Hello Woofers!

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

Wot a wonderful day! We have had a bit of cloud and a bit of rain, and a load of sunshine!

First thing this morning the clouds were still here from yesterday but it didn't feel cold at all.

Morning on the estuary!

Freddy was trying his old trick of getting a lift by rolling on his back and pretending he had broken a claw or even a leg.

This time however, he tried a new excuse...........

Oooooooo! I've found some poo to roll in!

Old Two Legs didn't fall for that one either!

Back home Freddy and Wendy had to wait a bit longer to be let out of the travelling cage 'cos Holly Chops was in need of some Butt Washing 'cos she had a grumbly tum.

Hurry up, we want a wee!

 Mind you, after a wee they had a great time rampaging around the house while OTL cleaned out their cages.

Lunchtime it was great down on the sea wall, the sunshine and the gentle breeze made May and Eric think about staying on the beach and doing a bit of sun bathing!

Did you bring the Factor 35?

That didn't go down to well with Holly and me. It's OK going for a walk with them but they do tend to hang about!

While they were messing about on the beach Holly and I were half way up the grass path, watching the world go by!

Shall we go and sit by the car?

 Today The Missus had one of her Master Classes, so she came back all sort of worn out but happy with the results, a card thingy with what OTL calls 'Plenty of Boketh' !

One of her girls called in 'Etherial' but we know that only OTL is allowed to do that!

Archie Babe was off to the vet to get his butt sorted, sometimes we wish Holly would do the same 'cos she can get a bit 'Whiffy' when she gets the Grumbly Tum!

Tonight TM has promised OTL a Kofti Kebab so we are getting ready for some serious mugging, mind you, I don't know what it will do for Holly's Tum!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

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

Swimming and Lost Ferrets and Photo's!

Hi Woofers!

It's Friday and we're back again, Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss Wendy, Freddy and Eric de Ferret!

Wot a glorious day it has been! Loads of sunshine, warm weather and loads of fun on the beach again!

It started off this morning with Miss Wendy throwing a strop and getting all upset about having her photo taken. It seems that Old Two Legs hasn't got a 'Keeper' photograph of Wendy and he wanted to get her picture, side on with a very shallow depth of field. So, when OTL stuck his camera into her face she didn't like it and just turned away and wouldn't look into the lens!

Don't Care, Don't want my picture taken, I haven't brushed my whiskers this morning!

We all said she looked great but it was no good, she wouldn't smile for the camera!

Freddy offered to have his picture taken but only if OTL would carry him back to the car, inside the ferret bag!

No way!

The idea of the morning walk is to get some exercise and sitting in a bag was not exercise!

Never mind Freddy, at least you tried!

Lunchtime May and Eric were out and we all had a good run around on the beach, which is good news as far as I'm concerned 'cos I could see the sea rushing back to shore and with a bit of luck I might even get a swim!

Miss May didn't show off about having her photo taken but she was more interested in running along the Sea Wall, so every time OTL pointed the lens in her direction, off she went at sixty miles an hour!

OK, make it good 'cos this is the only one I'm posing for!

Holly Chops was sitting on the Sea Wall puffing and blowing about the time it was taking getting a picture of an 'over sized rat'!

What she didn't know was that May had abandoned the photo shoot and was more interested in sampling bit of Woofer Leg!

Now then, I fancy a bit off the flank!

It was only the fact that OTL had hold of the ferret lead that stopped Miss May getting a nibble of a Holly Dog!

Poor Eric was laughing so much he fell over backwards and had great trouble getting back on his paws again!

I didn't mind the delay 'cos I could see the tide heading for the shore!

We arrived at the bench on the hill and OTL called me over to him, me, like a plonker, thought he wanted to check the harness or maybe give me a stroke and tell me wot a good girl I was.

No such luck, the crafty OTL clipped my lead on and walked me past the spot where I could dash off down to the beach and into the water for a good splosh about!

There are times when it just don't go right!

When we all got to the car OTL loaded Holly and I into the back of the car and popped the ferrets in as well. He unclipped their leads and set about pouring some fresh water into the drinking bowl. It was at that point Eric decided to climb over the top of May to have a last sniff out the back of the car and as he did he fell out, onto the ground!

Eric was all paws and tail and in a bit of a panic as he landed on his back and was just about to run off under the car when OTL dived down and picked Eric up in his hand, just in time!

There were too many cars and Two Legs in the car park for Eric to safely have a dash about!

Back he went into the travelling cage and off for home!

After all that excitement, we all had a snooze while OTL finished off his work on the computer!

Saturday tomorrow! No work, just fun and games!

Bye bye for now!

Luv,

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

Sunshine, Sea Side and me being Sneaky!

Hello Woofers!

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

It has been a super sunny day today, we have all enjoyed ourselves down on the beach. Now, when we were first introduced to Freddy, he just couldn't get into this walking lark and would fall over and roll onto his side and stick his paws in the air and wait for Old Two Legs to pick him up!

Since then he has got better and has walked all the way back from the beach right up to the car park.

However, there are times when he falls back into his bad habits!

Today was one of them!

As soon as his paws hit the beach, over he went!

I'm going to do more of this!

 Oscar came waddling by and asked if he could join Freddy on the beach but as he hadn't had his breakfast yet he decided to get back home!

That looks just the thing for a day like this!

 Come lunchtime, OTL had got back from the dentist with his new teeth! He has to back again 'cos the  dentist found there was one tooth with a loose filling, more expense!

On the beach Holly and I had fun playing 'Dig & Chase' 'cos the tide hadn't come in yet and I couldn't have a swim yet!

Come on tide, hurry up!

 While Holly and I were having fun Miss May and Eric were busy digging holes in the sand and of course, I just couldn't resist stopping to help them out with a quick dig!

Hey! This sniffs good!

Now, as were heading back to the car, the tide was rushing in across the mud and because the ferrets were a bit slow, by the time we got to the path where we turn left into the car park and wave good bye to the sea.

I was having a sniff in the grass and noticed that the tide was almost in and I was tempted, very tempted, in fact, I did some quick calculations and reckon I could get down onto the beach and in for a paddle before OTL could get to me!

So, I stood there and as OTL turned to call me, I gave him a big woofer grin and ran off down to the beach and straight into the water!

OTL headed back to the car mumbling all sorts of curses but I didn't care, I just had to have a swim!

I didn't hang about too long and by the time he had got Holly and the ferrets packed into the car I had caught up with them!

A quick rub down with one of our Doggy Towels and we were ready to get off home!

Tonight we are going to watch the 'Fantastic Creature' DVD, so that could mean a bottle of single malt, a pack of shortbread and a pack or two of nibbles!

We know how to have fun!

See you all tomorrow!

Luv,

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

We find Sheerness!

Hi Woofers!

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

We made a discovery this morning......................Sheerness!

Yep! There it was, just where we left it last week, it hadn't moved an inch!

We can Seeeee Yooooo!

 We did a wave to everyone over the other side of the River Medway but there was no one to wave back!

Maybe they were looking to see if everything had come back after hiding for such a long time!

Freddy and Wendy were out first thing but were not impressed with the return of Sheerness, Wendy said she had been getting used to the grey wall across the river!

Old Two Legs had a busy day today 'cos he had to find a new light for the shower unit in the caravan. He went off to the local caravan place but there was no lights available and that went with the all the caravan shops he stopped at!

He was out so long that The Missus had to take us out for our midday walk, without the ferrets! We went for a walk in the field behind the house and then TM found she couldn't go home 'cos she had left her door key at home!

What a Wally!

It was a good job OTL wasn't too long before he got home and we got another walk 'cos the ferrets were showing off 'cos they hadn't been out for their walk!

Down on the beach May and Eric had fun digging and chasing each other along the beach.

A Quick Kiss for Eric!

When we got back home OTL was onto the computer and spent a couple of hours looking for a caravan light. He managed to find one he thinks will do the job so early next week it should arrive and we look forward to seeing him fit it back into the shower!

OTL has had delivered the Harry Potter spin off film about Fantastic Creatures so he plans to watch that soon. Now we all thought that the ferrets and us woofers were the only Fantastic Creatures in OTL's life!

We will be keeping our eyes on him!

See you all tomorrow!

Luv,

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

Miss May get's some Welly and I get wet!

Hello Woofers!

Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss April, Freddy and Eric de Ferret here!

It's getting better, the weather I mean, it's still very misty out to sea but the wind has dropped right away.

Trubble is, the sea mist is still with us! You know, as we drove towards the car park, we passed the church and it was all sunshine and blue skies but fifty feet further on it was all misty and we couldn't even see the sea!

We can't see the sea!

 Wot we did hear was the fog horn blasting away from over the other side of the River Medway at Sheerness!

Mournful or wot!

Still, it didn't stop us from doing a 'Sniff and Whizz' all along the beach and up the hill!

Back home we spent some time in the garden looking for the Flogs but they must have gone away 'cos there wasn't even a splash! The sun was shining and the 'Water Jar' feature on the side of the pond was pouring loads of water back into the pond and making a super little tinkling sound!

Lunchtime we reckoned it was going to be great on the beach. The tide should be in and the sun should be out!

Well one out of two 'aint bad!

The mist was still there and the fog horns were still singing!

Sheerness is still gone!

As we headed down to the beach Old Two Legs called me back and took off my harness.

That was a good sign 'cos he only does that when he doesn't me going in the water!

That was it, I flew down the hill, jumped off the Sea Wall and down the beach and straight into the water!

First swim of the year!

 I was having a great time in and out of the water until some how I managed to loose the stick OTL was trowing for me!

May and Eric we charging up and down the beach digging trenches and holes. Right up to when May found a Green Welly!

Well, being a ferret means you are very inquisitive and into every mischief you can lay your paws on!

May went right down to the end of the welly and was talking about hiding stuff down there!

This is a good hiding place for biscuits!

 It was all good fun, right up to the point when OTL said that the water was getting rather close to the welly and before long it may even float off into the North Sea!

Water is getting too close!

That was it, we all headed off up the grass hill and back to the car which was still covered in mist!

Again, as we got to the church the mist disappeared and the sun was beating down!

Back home it was snoozy time in OTL's office while he was working.

We had some fun 'cos OTL decided that as there was no orders to get out, he would go into the caravan and try to repair the light in the shower. While he was working in the shower we sat on the seats looking out the window at the Two Legs walking past. It was fun when Holly and I did out 'Woof Off' woof and made them jump especially as they didn't know from where the noise was coming from!

That sorted them out!

In the end OTL decided that the light was 'Beyond Repair' so tomorrow we are off to the caravan place to see what they have a new one in stock, more expense!

We will go with him just to help if he starts to snivel!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss April, Freddy and Eric de Ferret.
