Back comes the car!

Hi Woofers!

It's us, Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss Wendy, Freddy and Eric de Ferret.

Hey! No rain today, well not here anyway!

That was some tale yesterday regarding little Millie Dog, I mean, she has got to be clever to run off and try to get to her old home!

It is good news that she was chipped and the Two Legs were able to work out where she now lives!

A better fitting collar is the answer or maybe a close fitting harness!

Of course, it's Happy Birthday to Archie Babes Boy! I wonder if he will get a Chinese Takeaway with loads of Plawn Clackers to share around!

Well, it is Friday!

We had fun today, this morning the tide was out, so we didn't get a chance to go in swimming. Mind you poor Holly had got a Grumbly Tum, so she wasn't interested in getting into trouble!

She was just wobbling along next to OTL!

Lunchtime we were out again and she said she felt better, but not ready to get into too much trouble!

When we got to the beach Holly got a whiff of a sniff on the wind and was off like a rocket to find it. No matter how  loudly OTL called she didn't take any notice and all OTL could see was her four paws waving around in the air!

I think Holly is in trouble!

 While Holly was waving her paws around I took the opportunity to wander down to the sea shore. The tide was in and before OTL saw me, I'd been in for a 'Deep Paddle'!

Makes a change to get in trouble!

OTL was looking at Holly Chops when that sneaky little Wendy Chops told OTL about my 'Deep Paddle'!

That was it, I'm in trouble again!

Have you seen wot Daisy is doing?

 This afternoon we got a telephone call to say the little car is ready for collection after getting a new bumper.

OTL has told The Missus that next time she will have to pay!

Bang goes her wine allowance for the month!


See you all tomorrow!

Luv,

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

It has been a Wet One!

Hi Ho! Woofers!

It's us, Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss Wendy, Freddy and Eric de Ferret.

Today it has been 'One of those Days'!

You know, stick a paw out the door and it is raining.

Try again later, stick your paw out and 'Splosh!' It's raining again!

This morning we had our rain coats on and it rained, and it rained, and it rained again!

Holly and I didn't really fancy this wet stuff and decided that we should go back to the car but Old Two Legs made us do our stuff before allowing us to head back!

Mind you, the ferrets didn't seem to mind and they got good and soaked diving in and out of the wet grass!

Lunchtime it was about the same. Rain followed by more rain!

I thought this was supposed to be Summer!

Freddy and Wendy insisted on riding in the ferret bag until the last bit before the car park and then pretended they had walked all the way!

Sneaky Ferrets!

The little car has gone in for bodywork repairs, a new bumper and other damage caused by a hooligan rock, according the The Missus!

We should get that back tomorrow, claws crossed!

I'm off downstairs now to see what is for dinner, maybe chicken again!

See you tomorrow.

Luv,

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

Back Again!

Yo! Woofers!

It's us, Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss Wendy, Freddy and Eric de Ferret.

Now, I know you are all wondering what happened yesterday?

Well, as you know, I had an appointment with the vet to check up on my wee. It was a bit out of balance the last time it got checked, six weeks ago.

OTL had made the appointment for late in the day and he had to collect a sample of wee.

He had purchased, at great expense, a 'Wee Collector' onto which he mounted the plastic sample bottle.

Normally he takes me out for a walk and keeps the lead on me so that when I stop for a wee, he shoves the collector under my backside and collects a bottle full!

This time Holly and I thought we would have some fun and I sort of crossed my legs and refused to wee!

Holly did say that as I didn't feel like a wee, she could donate a drop or two to help out!

OTL said it wasn't the idea and told me to 'Get a Move On and Produce...........Or Else!

Well when we got to the vets we were late and had to wait and when we did go in I was pushed, poked and fiddled with!

My wee was inspected and a cardboard strip was dipped into the bottle and it then changed colour!

The cardboard strip, not the bottle or the wee!

After some more poking and pulling I was declared to be, Fit and Healthy!

By the time we got back and we all had our dinner, it was too late to do the blog and we were all tired and ready for bed!

This morning there were some big puddles on the road but we didn't hear and thunder last night, so we must have been really tired last night!

The sea was still a bit choppy but at least the rain had gone!

No swimming today!

 We met up with some of the lads and they all thought it was great fun when we told them about the saga of The Wee!

Just how long are these Two Legs going to stand here talking?

 Now, on our way down to the beach I had to stop for a poo and while I was busy, Holly decided to head off in front of everyone for a private wee. Trouble was, she got lost in the long grass and ended up going the wrong way and she was heading deeper into the trees!

We got to the beach and OTL started giving his 'Loud Whistle' which gives us his location and somewhere to head towards!

Of course, when she finally arrived at the Sea Wall, she said she knew where we were all the time!

Oh Yeah?

 Lunchtime it was getting cloudy and we thought that there may be some more rain but it held off giving Fred and Wendy time to get their run in down on the beach.

Really, we should bring our beds down here and do some sun bathing!

Heading back to the car we came across a family walking there dog. The dog looked like a greyhound type with sharp teeth and a glint it his eye which scared the ferrets!

OTL picked up the ferrets and of course the family were all Ooohing and Arrreing over the ferrets. The father said that he had filmed OTL three or four years ago and the film was used by the council advertising Rochester!

That was one day when  just Holly and I were out with OTL.

I always said we were famous!

We have not heard any more news about Izzy's mum so she must be having fun with her fellow patients in the hospital, dancing up and down the ward?

See you all tomorrow!

Luv,

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

A Big Load of Busy!

Hello Woofers!

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

Well, today has been a strange day. We have been doing our jobs, like guarding the house and woofing at the neighbours, growling at the cats and generally enjoying the warm weather.

Old Two Legs has been working his way through a big pile of paperwork, paying invoices and chasing customer who haven't paid their invoices!

Then there was the phone call to the vets to get me booked in tomorrow for some tests. OTL has got to get a sample of my wee for testing you see. I'm not as interesting as Archie Babe who gets his poo inspected!

Mind you, Holly has bee volunteered to be a model for OTL. You see, OTL has got fed up with the Poodle Parlour keep putting up the prices of our hair cuts so he has purchased a set of clippers, a whacking great bath that plasterers use when sloshing stuff on the ceiling!

He has a brush and a pair of scissors for trimming our whiskers. The only thing he hasn't got is an idea of what he is doing!

So, today he has booked up for a days 'Introductory Course' at the county Agricultural College wot teaches the students how to look after animals and drive tractors up and down fields!

The course isn't until October but he has made the booking and paid his fee!

OTL reckons now that it will take six or seven hair cuts to 'Break Even' and after that it is all profit!

When booking the course he was asked wot woofer he would be bringing and what breed? Well, he says he is bringing a Bichon Frise/Maltese Terrier/Wire Haired Fox Terrier cross and the Two Legs on the phone said 'WOT?'

It always gets them!

OTL says that if he can make a good job of Holly Chops then I should be no trouble at all!

After that bit of fun he then paid the Inland Revenue or HMRC as it's known nowadays, some more money prior to filing his Tax Return.

He hasn't exactly done his return yet but it is some where the top of the pile, so it won't be long before he gets to it!

The weather has been rather warm today so Wendy and Freddy missed out on the lunchtime walk, May and Eric went out with us this morning but said they would have rather stayed at home!

The Missus has informed us that there are some storms on their way in the next few days, well so the weather man says. We will have to just wait and see what happens!

As well as the pile of papers, OTL has been 'Engineering' today plus inventing a 'Special' for one of his customers. OTL is good at inventing things that the customers want, that is why they keep coming back!

Finally he has booked the little car in for some body work. You see TM had this discussion with a rock down in the car park near the beach. The rock says he has been there for years and he ain't moving for no one. TM says she had 'Discussions' with the rock and now there is a bill for loads of money that OTL has got to pay out, and the car is only just a year old!

OTL is not a happy puppy!

We are off to see wot is for dinner tonight, with a bit of luck we may get a nibble!

See you all tomorrow!

Luv,

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

It's My Shrew!

Hello Woofers!

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

We have had a super Sunday, for a start The Missus was up the hall with her Master Class.

That means we can sleep on the bed or on the sofa and nibble at carrots!

We know how to live!

Down on he beach both Holly and I had a super roll on the sand.

We didn't let on to Old Two Legs that there was a buried sniff under the sand!

Oh! It's just great when you rub it in!

 May and Eric came with us on the morning walk and Miss May found a Shrew that had died a short while ago. It was all clean looking and with a fine coat on it.

She ate it all, except the tail!

Eric was interested in sharing but May gave him the Ferrets 'Gerroff' and hissed at him as well!

SmineandyoucanjustFerretoff!

 Miss May was making Mmmm! noises which normally mean she is enjoying the meal!

I do love a fresh Shrew!

 I seem to remember that Snowflake used to love a shrew for breakfast or dinner or even afternoon tea!

Being the weekend there were loads of visitors to the beach and it seemed they all wanted to see and talk about and stroke the ferrets.

It is Soooo Booooring!

The tide was out at lunchtime and one of the Thames Barges came close to the sand bank, it was a pity OTL didn't have his telephoto lens, still, it looks pretty in the sunshine!

A Thames Barge going up the Medway!

 On the way back at lunchtime we stopped in at the village hall to say hello to Rosie and she had a game of chase while OTL mended the card cutting machine.

Monday tomorrow, more paperwork for OTL and we get to snooze on the sofa!

It's a dogs life!

Bye bye for now.

Luv,

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

A Day the Carnival Came to Town!

Hi Woofers!

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

We have had a fun day today!

First of all we met up with all the lads down on the beach and I mentioned that Holly had an enormous tongue.

Young Dylan asked if it was as long as his?

Just for fun I can stick it in my collar!

 Holly was amazed at the size of it and Dylan said that it sometimes gets in the way when he is eating his dinner and he has to be careful he doesn't chew on it!

Nah! Mine is bigger than yours!

 All the time Holly and Dylan were comparing tongues, Miss Wendy was digging a trench using just her nose!

Just like Holly, yer stick it in and then shove!

 On the way back home we ran into the Grain Carnival Parade.

There was the Fire Station men who were running around in their Fire Engine squirting water over everyone!

OTL was taking pictures and saying that you don't often see villages doing this any more 'cos of the 'Health & Safety' rules nowadays!

The start of the march!

Of course 'The Committee' has to get in on the act!

 There were other groups doing different things like dancing and judo and football and stuff like that.

There is nothing like a 'Boogy Down the Street'

 There was one float with the Miss Invicta Two Legs who were waving at everyone who would wave back!

Oh! Look! There's OTL, lets wave at him!

The road was shut off for a whole hour while the parade passed by. It wasn't because it was a big parade but but the parade went all over the place blocking up all the roads in the village!

The Missus enjoyed her day up at the village hall at their 'Crop', so we had a bit of peace and quiet and even got to watch a bit of TV, well, fall asleep in front of the TV!

Tomorrow we have no plans yet, we will have a chat with OTL later and make plans!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

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

We Love Friday's

Hi Woofers!

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

Friday is one of our favourite days, you see The Missus is happy 'cos tomorrow she is up the village hall doing her 'Master Class'.

Old Two Legs is happy 'cos she is up there as well. That means he gets to watch all the recordings of the TV programs and he gets to put his feet up all day, except when he has to take us out of course!

Today we left the ferrets at home 'cos it was getting too hot for them and to be honest, they would rather tuck up under the blanket in the cage 'cos it was cooler there!

Down on the beach OTL spotted another sailing barge out on the estuary.

Look! It's another sailor!

Me?

Well, I didn't get to go in the water for a paddle. Instead I did what I do best.........................

I had a really good Roll!

First I rolled this way.

Then I rolled that way!

And then I rolled over this way!

And then I rolled over that way!

And finally I rolled over there again!

 OK, so I didn't get to dip my claws into the sea but I managed to get sand absolutely everywhere!

I reckon that I must have had a good couple of pounds of sand tucked under my tail by the time I finished!

That's another reason I love Fridays, I get to roll in the sand!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

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

It's a Flowery Day today!

Hi Woofers!

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


No rain today! It's back to sunshine and warm balmy breezes!


We hear that Izzy's mum has been doing the 'One Step Shuffle' after her operation.


'The Physio' says that is good progress and the fact there is movement is even better!

So, more news when it comes!

First thing this morning we were down on the beach when Old Two Legs spotted an old sailing barge on the horizon.

Yo Ho Sailor!

 May and Eric came out with us 'cos it wasn't too hot. We all had a trot along the beach and up the hill and they didn't ask to be carried!

Even though they didn't let up on trying to catch Holly and I and give us a nip on our back legs!

Come on, let's grab her leg and scare the woof out of her!

Lunchtime OTL decided that at lunchtime it would be too hot to take Wendy and Freddy out. If a ferret gets too hot then that's not good for them!

Eric said that as long as they had their rampage around the house he wouldn't mind missing out on the midday run!

OTL spent time photographing the flowers along the side of the path as we headed down to the beach.

Now, that's looking pretty!

 Not that he found anything rare or special, but the colours look good!

This is the plant where we find the Soldier Beetles

 There was this one that had a pretty colour but all it's mates were white!

A DNA Hiccup?

 Then there was the stuff that looks like 'Cow Parsley' but OTL says he is not sure, he is more interested in the shape and colour rather than the name!

We like the flower blooms around the edge!

This afternoon we spent guarding the office desk, well, we both stayed underneath on our beds!

See you all tomorrow!

Luv,

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

No Paddles Again!

Hi Woofers!

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

Wot a day, it's all been happening today!

First of all Izzy's mum is getting kicked out of bed to do some walking exercises. She knows that it will be a bit painful but 'Grit Yer Teeth and Suck it Up Girl' it won't last for long!

Pretty soon she will be back doing her ballet dancing!

Then Auntie Sue going for some dustbin lid pills, Holly reckons they are worming tablets 'cos all worming pills are that size!

Never mind, stick some Tomato Ketchup on them and they don't taste so bad!

I have to have a tablet every other day and the only way I will take it is if it is hidden under some Blue cheese and on a small cracker!

Posh or wot?

Down here, last night, it rained and looking at the weather gizmo in Old Two Legs office, it rained twelve millimetres!

That is a lot of rain and it didn't even wake him up!

Mind you, it filled to pond up to the top!

Down on the beach, the tide was out, so no paddles. Freddy said he didn't feel like digging and asked permission to go to sleep or get carried!

That rain kept me awake all last night!

Miss May was not better, she dug a small hole and curled up in it for a snooze!

Wake me up when I've had my snooze!

 I didn't get a swim, mind you, the waves were a bit big and on top of that, the water looked a bit mucky!

Well, maybe not today!

Now, Archie Babe, I had to look up wot that thing is they stuck in your leg and I'm glad I've never had one! You must be very brave to have that stuck in you, never mind how many cuddles they give you!

As for collecting poos, OTL collects our poos every day but he throws them in the bin, wonder why the vet wants them?

Do you reckon your poo is worth something? I mean, I've heard of the goose who lays the Golden Egg but never a Woofer doing anything that has gold in it, unless they have swallowed a gold chain!

Let's hope it is all better soon or you start pooing golden balls!

Bye bye for now!

Luv,

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

And then it rained!

Hi Woofers!

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

Well, wot a day it's been!

First of all we hear that Izzy's Mum is all OK and she can wiggle the bits that matter and the 'Self Dosing Medication' is a real blast!

Old Two Legs has had the engineer along to fix his rear view mirror. You see when they put a new screen in they didn't put enough sticky stuff on it and after a while, it fell off!

So, first thing this morning, there was the engineer with his bottle of glue all ready to slosh it about and make it all better.

We had a look but couldn't see any glitter, so he was not a 'Crafter'!

Down on the beach we had just got going when a rain cloud came rushing down the River Medway and rained on us!

Miss May was not impressed and demanded a carry back to the car!

My Tail is getting wet, I need a Carry OTL!

 It was a good job we had the Ferret Bag with us, so in she and Eric went and commenced to having a fight in the bag!

I think it must be a 'Ferret Thing' 'cos at lunchtime we had the same thing with Freddy and Wendy, mind you, it was only a small tussle, but they refused to come out until they were back in the car!

No Thanks, we are staying here until the rain stops!

 OTL spotted the blooms and decided to take a picture but again he forgot the sun was overhead and behind the clouds, so the result is a bit 'flat'!

Can you spot the bugs?

 Once again I was prevented from going in for a dip, I mean, Holly gets to have a wander off the lead but I'm still on the lead until we get back up the hill!

Come on, the rain is almost finished!

This afternoon we were left at home to do guarding while OTL and The Missus took the small car to the garage to get it's first service.

We managed to woof at the delivery men who had parcels for OTL and TM! One got so frightened that he left the parcel under the caravan and ran off!

Wot a Wimp!

TM has said that she will be having a chat tonight with Izzy's Mum, if she can stay awake that is!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

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