and today there was Frost!

Hi Woofers!

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

Yesterday it was snow and wind and rain and today it's frost and cold and not so much wind!

It also has been sunny and complete with blue skies!

Mind you, the hill is still here and Old Two Legs is insisting that we climb up the hill to 'get some exercise'!

I think I'd rather enjoy the sniffs than run up there again!
Not that OTL was listening, so, up we go and there was one small benefit from us, we got 4XPaw traction!

That means we can get up the hill quicker than OTL which gives us a chance to get in some sniffs until he turns up!

Fancy joining us in a sniff OTL?
 Another good thing is that from the top of the hill we can see down onto the football field and the bushes where some of the rabbits hide!

Look! The car seems miles away!
After the lunchtime walk we headed off to a couple of customers to do some deliveries. OTL took the stuff in and we sorted the paperwork out by sitting on the delivery notes!

Miss May was all bright and full of fun today, she has been bouncing around the cage this afternoon, which is a good sign especially when she chases after Eric and grabs his tail and gives it a good shake!

The Missus has been back to get her eyes checked and has been given some more drops for OTL to put in her eyes.

Tomorrow we are planning to watch that DVD OTL got for his birthday, so far we have all fallen asleep half way through it so if we are lucky, we might see it from start to finish!

See you all tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss Wendy, Eric de Ferret and Monty de Ferret!

Snow!

Hi Woofers!

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

Well, it's the day after his birthday and he has been taking it 'easy'. Honest, it had nothing to do with the champagne or the malt whisky he  managed to consume last night.

Well, that's what he said!

It seems that The Missus mentioned it on FaceAche and got about a hundred comments and 'Happy Birthday's when she told the tale of the birthday card where the ink was still wet!

No wonder she got up early yesterday!

Today it was a little later than normal but let's face it, Old Two Legs has long ago stopped having to 'clock in' and nowadays starts and stops when he feels like it!

It was rather cold and cloudy first thing and believe or not, we had snow for about ten minutes!

Snow, this early!

Mind you, by the time we got out again at lunchtime, it was all clear blue sky and sunshine and a rather chilly wind!

It's a long way up!
 When we got to the top there was a rather cold wind blowing, so, we didn't hear OTL call us when he went off exploring the whacking great moat that had been dug when they first built the gun emplacements.
 
Is that him down there?
We have never been down into the big hole, it looks too deep and too dangerous, just imaging all the Nargles living down there!

It may be blowy but we'll stay on top!
We came down off the top and managed to get a run along the beach before OTL spotted us!

Race you to the steps!
Back home we all settled down to watch a DVD, one of OTL's birthday presents and of course OTL fell asleep half way through and had to be woken up by me licking his ear.

Only 'cos he was snoring!

Thank you all for the good wishes to OTL and the Birthday Songs!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

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

Guess wot today is?

Hello Woofers!

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

OK, stand to attention, important item of news!

Old Two Legs is 10,072 today! 

So, all together, on the count of 93, ready?     1...........7............93!

Happy Birthday OTL
Hope you liked the pooy smell
We all did it in the corner
Then we all ran like hell!

There now, all he has to do is clear it up! You know it was difficult getting the ferret poo to balance on top of the woofer poo but we just managed it in the end. Holly said we should put a candle on it as well, being it is a birthday prezzie!

The ferrets reckon we shouldn't push it too much!

Our morning walk was in the dark, as usual, I'll be glad when we will see the sun again and the bright red sunrise!

Lunchtime it was rather grey, typical for this time of the year and OTL decided to take us up the same hill as yesterday!

I mean, like we are getting old as well you know!

This is as bad as yesterday!
We got to the top and the only thing we saw was a Wormy Man digging out on the mud flats.

Judging by the wind that was blowing across the top of the hill we reckon it must be terribly cold out on the flats!

Digging for 'Chilly Worms'!
Back home we had a look at the birthday cards and spotted one with a ferret on it!

Now, how many times have you seen ferrets on cards!

Archie Babe sent down an eCard of a load of woofers getting off their leads and having a good run around!

Thanks Archie!

Tonight The Missus has promised OTL a Chinese Take a Way, so it's Plawn clackers and King Plawns as well!

Yum Yum!

Must go, TM is lighting the candles on his cake and I'm in charge of the fire extinguisher!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss Wendy, Eric de Ferret and Monty de Ferret!

Yesterday? Well..................

Hello Woofers!

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

Now, first of all, sorry about yesterday, it wasn't our fault, it was Old Two Legs wot caused us to miss yesterdays report!

We got dragged out at some silly time in the morning and rushed around and hurried up and generally bullied until we landed in the big car!

Off we went and after one or two drop offs to customers we ended up at Auntie Glynis and Uncle Alun's house. Now you will remember that Alun and OTL go off in early Spring and head off to Scotland to get into all manner of trouble!

They are like a couple of young hooligans let out for a few days, trouble is, they are both old and should have more sense!

We had a super day and didn't get back home until late, so no Daisy's Diary!

Today we were up a little late but it was still dark when we went out.

Lunchtime was different. To start off we met up with Barney IV, now he is one of these Doddle Dogs who is a big ball of fun and on top of that he just loves OTL!

Come on, Throw The Ball!
Just for a change today, OTL decided to climb the hill from the left hand side instead of the right hand side, it was a bit steep!

Bit of a climb that Holly Chops!
We ended going down past the beach and it was just too much for Holly and I, we dashed down onto the beach and raced up and down a few times, ending up on the rocks!

Can we have another run?
On the way back home we saw Barney IV again and Holly nearly woofed her tail off calling to him, me, I was a little more refined, I just growled!

I'm sure that's my ball!
OTL has been busy trying to catch up on what he missed out doing yesterday!

Holly and I decided to keep out of the way and spent the afternoon snoozing!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss Wendy, Eric de Ferret and Monty de Ferret!

If he thinks I'm getting in there he can think again!

Hi Woofers!

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

Ever get one of those days when it looks like nothing will happen and then by the time the day is over all manner of stuff has happened?

We had one of those days today!

It started off first thing this morning, Sunday, Old Two Legs was up before six. He said it was the snoring but there was only him in bed 'cos The Missus had got up at quarter past silly o clock!

So, Sunday morning, it's as black as a Newgate Knocker and we headed off for a walk while all the ferrets were curled up and snoring!

Yep! Miss Wendy was the loudest snore almost as loud as Holly Chops!

So, off we went expecting to see the normal crowd, like no one!

First we bumped into Cody and his mate, then there was some visiting bozo with a crazy looking poodle that had been crossed with a giraffe!

I mean, it had legs the size of goal posts!

That was it! No quiet stroll for us this morning!

Back home TM was crashing about in the bathroom giving it a clean and OTL noticed that the gissmo that held the shower head up was sort of drooping and hanging off the wall!

That was it, off to Bee & Queue clutching his wallet like it was about to be stolen!

Back he came with a new box of pipes and stuff that had TM oohing and arring like she had never seen a shower before!

We left her to it and headed off for our lunchtime walk.

Well, I reckon it's a rabbit!
There were some funny looking berries on the bushes, looking rather sad a unhappy, in fact they looked rather dead!

Better warn the birds about these!
Today we headed up and over the hill, nothing too exciting but it made a change to look  out over the sea.

Still looks grey out there!
Back home OTL started to assemble the new shower. He had gone all made and purchased one with two shower heads!

There was one that looked the size of a dustbin lid and the other was one of those hand held things. Now, we reckon that the big one was really meant for one of those Power Shower, you know, the one that blasts the sand off your back!

Well, he spent some time banging and bashing away until he had finally finished and then invited Holly and I in for an inspection.

We were not impressed!

When we get a was we have to suffer with a bucket of warm water and a scrub down with a Doggy Brush but this thing looks like we will be blasted into a corner and get jets of water blasted places where a little woofer should never get blasted!

In fact it was Holly that came up with the comment,

If he thinks I'm getting in there he can think again!

We shall see!

Bye for now!

Luv,

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

A Grey Day!

Hi Woofers,

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

You know, there are things that start off looking good but end up looking not so good when they arrive.

Take for instance 'The Weekend'.

There we are, working hard and making sure everything is working well, like Old Two Legs and The Missus and the Postman and the Dustbin Men. Then Friday is here and the sun has been shining and Saturday looks like it's going to be just great, and what happens next?

It gets colder, the clouds get all black and the rain starts!

It just ain't right!

Miss May has been pointedly ignoring the Kitten Scoff we got for her and has gone back to the Kibble she has always eaten. She is taking the pills but makes a bit of a fuss about having to share the Ferretone with the pill, even if it is all crushed up!

As for baby cats thinking "I'm superior to everything on this planet", they ain't met up with us yet!

When ever a cat tries to sneak across out garden we soon tell it all about us woofers and in which order we think they are!

Funny, they never hang about to discuss it any further!

Lunchtime wasn't much better, we went out and there it was, raining! OK, not too much but rain it did!

Back home things improved, OTL got out a carrot for us and we sat down the watch a film on the TV, 'The Outlaw Josey Wales'.

We have to watch it when TM is out 'cos she thinks it is too violent and should have a certificate X!

As if!

I suppose that we will have to clean up all the carrot crumbs before TM gets home from her Inky Glue Slapping day up the village hall!

See you tomorrow.

Luv,

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

Salmon and Turkey for Miss May!

Hello Woofers!

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

It's been another one of those 'Mix Up Days'.

Old Two Legs was up early to get us out and back and the cages cleaned before he headed of to the hospital to get his eyes checked.

He got checked by the consultant fella who said that OTL needed to have his eye ball 'Polished'!

Now he had his cattle racks done some time ago but it looks like a cattle rack has returned, so with the aid of some laser gun thingy, he's going to get blasted and sort out his eye.

Only problem is, it will take another twp months before he will be invited back in! We reckon that will total eight months to get an eye ball polished and it will take 'Only a few minutes'!

Maybe we should borrow a torch and have a go ourselves!

OTL ordered up some 'Kitten Food' for Miss May on the advice of the vet and it is supposed to get some extra protein into Miss May to help with her Insolinoma. Now it's OK to get the stuff in, but getting a ferret to eat is another thing!

Still, if there is nothing else then she should eat it, claws crossed!

OTL put half a tin in with May and Eric and he put the other half of the tin in with Wendy and Monty. Who knows, they might eat it when OTL isn't watching, then it will be the question of who actually ate it?

Now, all this talk of baths, hair cuts and stuff has made OTL dig out the clippers and charge them up!

I do hope it is just 'Maintanance' and not a planned job!

With OTL off to the hospital, that means The Missus had to take us out for the midday walk. We had to show her the way we like to go and we didn't have the bother of a camera clicking away every time we have a wee!

Tomorrow we have the whole day to ourselves 'cos TM is off to her Glue Slapping day at the village hall.

That means we will be 'Resting' on the sofa with all the nibbles we can find!

Who knows, we might have a go at the 'Kittens Nosh' if those ferrets turn their noses up!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

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

It's Getting Colder!

Hi Woofers!

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

Now, I don't know what it's been like your end of the world but down here in sunny North Kent the wind has been blowing and the temperature is well down on what is has been over the last week or so!

I can see that before long there will be signs of weather we would rather not have, like, snow!

I know this 'cos Old Two Legs has just 'Found' his set of snow chains for the big car!

He has never needed to put them on yet, but he is always prepared for the worse!

Miss May was a bit slow in getting up this morning and needed a cuddle with OTL and a carry down stairs so she could get her tablet and a feed of Kibble. Once that had got inside her she was off chasing Eric and ferreting around the lounge!

All of the ferrets decided to stay in today, so it was just Holly and I out for a walk and a sniff!

Well, it's interesting, I'll give you that!
Lunchtime walk was still as chilly and  we met up with a couple of woofers we had met before, mind you, that didn't stop me from giving them a woof as we passed!

We stopped at the Mole Holes for a sniff and decided that the mole wasn't at home!

Well, it's been here but not this afternoon!
Back home retired to our day beds for a snooze while OTL got some stuff ready for delivery tomorrow.

Talking of tomorrow, OTL is off to get his eye ball inspected and work out if they will get the laser gun out and shoot him!

More than likely, they will have a look and make another appointment, which will upset OTL 'cos he has been waiting since last August to see the consultant!

That means, we will have to be walked by The Missus 'cos OTL's appointment is the same time we normally have our walk.

See you all tomorrow!

Luv,

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

Miss May is looking good today!

Hi Woofers!

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

Happy Birthday to Arch
Soak yer tail in some starch
Spray yer head with some glitter
Happy Birthday to you!

Happy Birthday Archie Babe, save us some of your birthday cake!

Holly was up early this morning working on the song and with the help of the ferrets we managed to complete it by walkies time!

As normal, it was dark and cloudy and we only spotted Venus for a couple of moments, then it hid behind the clouds.

Miss May is showing improvements although she is still wobbly on her paws but she is awake enough to have a game of 'Push and Shove' with Eric!

After the game they both headed for bed and a snooze.

Eric woke up and started to rattle his cage door, so, to teach him a lesson Old Two Legs dressed him up and he came out with us for a lunch time walk!

He was not a happy ferret!

Most of the time he spent trying to get back into the bag!

All though the sun was shining, it was chilly 'cos the wind was blowing. Still, there were still sniffs to be had!

They have even taken the Christmas Tree down from off the church!
 When we got back to the football field, Eric got all excited about a pile of earth the moles had dug overnight but try as he might, the Mole stayed hidden deep underground!

Look, I know he is here and I can sniff him but he won't come out to play!
Back home OTL has been playing on the computer and fiddling with the paperwork he creates. I don't really understand why he has to make piles of paper only to send it all off to his accountant who puts in in bigger files and then after a year or so, gives it all back to OTL!

I really don't understand Two Legs!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

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

Good News!

Hi Woofers!

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

A little late getting up this morning and although it was only half an hour, we missed out on a sunrise but that means the the days are getting longer and the nights are getting shorter!

It won't be long before we will be able to show the super sunrises we get this end of the world.

Now, you remember that Miss May was put on the pills yesterday and when we all got home OTL got the pill down her chops with the aid of some Ferretone.

She was sleepy and headed off to bed for a cuddle with Eric, so we left them alone to get over the excitement of the day.

Normally, Miss May is late in getting up, staying in bed until we come back from our morning walk and then slowly walks around the house for a slurp of Ferretone and a nibble of Brambles Biscuits.

She then finds a comfortable place to go back to snoozing.

Not this morning, when we got back from our walk we found Eric and May bouncing off the cage walls, rattling the cage door and running up and down the cage floors!

OTL opened the bottom door and Eric just flew out followed by May and OTL reckons that her paws didn't touch the ground!

Her nose went straight into the small glass cup OTL uses to grind up the pills and mix with a small drop of Lactose Free Milk which goes down a treat!

After that she was off down stairs for a game with Eric, in and out of the cardboard tunnels and plastic bags!

Well, it looks like those pills are magic! She hasn't been dribbling nor has she been falling over on her side either.

Success!

Lunchtime we took Wendy and Monty out for a walk. Normally Eric come out but he has been showing off and not wanting to get out of the bag!

We arrived on the sea front just before High Tide and noticed it was right up the beach, very high!

Is this what they warned us about?
We did see that there were flood warnings in and around this area but there was no signs of it chasing us up the hill!

Monty was full of fun and was dashing about and rolling in the grass.

Come on, chase me!
Miss Wendy was slow to start but it didn't take her too long to catch Monty and the pair of them were laughing their tails off by chasing Holly and me!

Look, lets creep up on a woofer and bite her butt!
We were more interested in watching out for bunnies that were stuffing their chops a bit further up the hill!

Nah! Too far away and they would see us coming!
 When we got to the football field Monty was straight into the Mole Hills and in no time was digging down into the Mole Tunnel, unfortunately the mole wasn't there!

Come on Mole Chops, come on out!
The mole stayed underground so we all missed out on some Mole Chasing, still, there is always next time!

Miss May has been running around the cage this after noon and OTL is dead chuffed with the improvement she has made after just two tablets!

See you all tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss Wendy, Eric de Ferret and Monty de Ferret!
