Boring!

Hi Woofers!

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

Ever get one of those days when it all sort of goes 'YUK'? We have had one today.

You see Old two Legs had to go out today and we stayed with The Missus all day. She took us out for our morning stroll, got scared out of her skin by a surprised Green Woodpecker who was trying to catch a snoozy break, until TM walked into the tree he was snoozing in!

Lunchtime we ran in and out of the rain but we did stop and show her where the 'Robin's Pincushion' was located!

She didn't take any interest 'cos she was playing on her  Face Ache Thingy Phone!

Back home it was getting all chilly, I hope it gets better in the week ahead cos I just fancy having a dip in the sea!

We were keeping guard around the house and I will admit, we fell asleep a few times, until someone knocked on the door and both Holly and I started our 'Who's Woofing at Our Door' woof!

It was only the post man who quickly legged it when he heard us!

It was late when OTL returned and we gave him a real 'woofers welcome' and he got licked all over his head!

When we had finished we all had a cuddle and a snooze, until dinner time!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

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

Silly Sunday!

Hi Woofers!

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

It's been fun today, full of silly things. I mean, there we were up at the crack of dawn, mainly 'cos Holly decided that she loved Old Two Legs and needed to give him a good licking behind the ear!

As she woke me up i decided that giving OTL a lick was a good idea, so i jumped up, sat on his pillow and proceeded to lick his bald spot on his head!

That woke him up, so, off we went for an early morning run!

OK, the sun had got up but with a bit of fiddly diddly it looks OK!
We met up with a few of the woofers, seems everyone was up early today!

Just as we were about to drive off home a car pulled into the car park, a new car we hadn't seen before, so, being interested in everything, we stopped and watched.

Then from out of the passenger seat a little Jack Russell appeared.

I say little but bear in mind this new woofer was just ten weeks old!

As OTL says.......'I got Ferrets bigger than him'!
We will keep our eyes open for him in the future!

Back home we were scanning through the photos The Missus took of the ladies up at the village hall who were all doing their Glue & Glitter Slapping exercises and we found this one which looked very silly!


Look how many cards we can stick on our fingers!
I bet that they will all be using rubber gloves next!

OTL came across some new flowers today, well, they could be wild flowers or weeds but they looked so pretty that we decided to put them up on the blog.

Pretty eh?
It was all of a rush as well, F1 Racing at 13:30hr and there we were all sitting on the sofa ready to cheer Hamilton onto first place!

Well, it was an exciting race and Hamilton overtook almost at the last moment!

Lunchtime we took Eric de Ferret with us for a walk and being Sunday there were loads of people and woofers down on the sea front. Eric was showing off to all of them every time they stopped with the question....'Ooooo is that a ferret?'

On the way back we had to stop at the Co-Op for a Lactose Free Milk for the ferrets and OTL left Eric in his harness and attached to the ferret bag hanging over the seat. Eric, somehow, managed to get free from the harness and was scurrying around on the floor!

So, OTL put him back in the harness and headed for home, with the air conditioning on, blowing onto his lap.

It wasn't long before Eric crept onto OTL's lap and fell asleep in the cool air!

That ferret is as crafty as they come!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

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

Lazy Day Today!

Hi Woofers!

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

Today The Missus headed off to the village hall again with all her mates to do some Heavy Duty Glue Slapping and Glitter Crunching!

Now, as far as we are concerned, that's all OK by us cos that means Old Two Legs gets all lazy and prefers to sit and play on the computer or watch some of the saved programs from the TV or today he has been listening to an audio book on the new iPlodicuss!

We had a look through the instruction manuals for the thing but when we all try to read it it looks like Double Dutch with bells on!

First thing this morning it wasn't very cloudy.

Well, it can get better or worse!
We were trotting along when OTL spotted a rose bush with a very strange growth on the branch. OTL reckons that some thing has planted some eggs in the branch and has made the rose grow a sort of cancer or canker, anyway, it looked worth taking a photo just for information's sake!

It could be an insect or even a spider that has done it.

We also met up with a couple of Bozo Woofers that say hello to OTL when ever they see him but one of them has got a funny habit of jumping up, spinning around and landing on her back for a good roll, even if there is nothing to roll in!

We do get to see some strange woofers!


She even does it on the carpet at home!
There was also a new flower, well, one we hadn't seen before and no, we don't know what it is!

Anyone got any ideas?

This afternoon was great, we spent most of the afternoon watching the Qualifying in the F1 Racing and at the same time OTL was listening to his audio book!

So, no gardening and no hair cut and shampoo, result!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

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

They left us!

Hi Woofers!

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

I do love the summer time, good warm weather and places to snooze in that are normally covered in mud!

Like yesterday it was just super having a bask in the sun, in front of the shed, in the warm rays of the sun.

That was until the ants came out and started to crawl all through our hair!

It was a good job that Old Two Legs gave us a good rub down before we went back in doors and up to his office!

Of course, we couldn't be too sure all the ants had gone but I daresay that The Missus flying around on her jet powered vacuum cleaner might get any of the stragglers!

Still, it was good and sunny and a day just meant for snoozing!

A day for ants!
Today we were up early for our walk, seems OTL couldn't stay asleep 'cos he and TM had been out yesterday doing some shopping and didn't get back until very late, hence the missing blog yesterday!

TM got herself a new iPlod to match OTL's and the pair of them have been playing with them, trying to make them do wot they want do, with only a small success!

Remember, if all else fails 'RTFM'!

Only there were no manuals in the box!

When we finally got out the clouds were low and half promising some rain but lucky enough it stayed away all day.

Mind you, it was a little dramatic!

Now, how about that for a morning vista!
 Miss May, her tail is getting better and the mark is getting smaller every day, so the antibiotic stuff is doing it's job!

We are in to see the vet next Wednesday, Miss May for her tail and Holly and I to get our yearly stab!

You know, ferrets seem to sleep around eighteen hours a day and it is not unusual to find a ferret curled up under the sofa or even on my bed!

Monty having a little rest before going off to sleep for the day!
If the rain keeps off, this weekend we will be re arranging the earth around the pond, the only down side will be if it rains, I might get a shave and shampoo!

Claws crossed!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

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

Strange Sea Vessel!

Hi Woofers!

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

We have been having some fun today. It started off with young Monty de Ferret. You see, these ferrets have all got a 'Thing' about rubber or spongy stuff!

Eric goes bananas over a 'Smoothy' and it's not the icy thing you drink! Miss May goes potty over convalescing powder and Wendy just loves dog food, especially the Brambles Biscuits!

Now they seem to be able to get everywhere they shouldn't and steal everything they fancy!

There was Old Two Legs cleaning cages when he heard a crashing sound, it was Eric throwing the empty 'Pet Disinfectant' off the top of his cage. It seems he wanted to get down to floor level where there was some Lactose Free Milk left in the bowl and he would rather get down by climbing onto OTL's shoulder than sliding down the cage wall!

Hey! Gissa Lift?
We saw a funny looking ship out on the River Medway this morning, it looked like a barge with a couple of Hi-Ab cranes hanging off the ends. Dunno what they were doing but you could bet that if the ferrets saw that they would want it!

Keep and eye open for Ferret Pirates!
The sun couldn't make up it's mind this morning and was making some interesting cloud patterns in the sky.

..........and just above you can almost see the sun!
Lunchtime was better, the sun came out but the wind was still blowing, so, all the insects were hanging onto the branches and grass, trying not to get blown out to sea!

No, I 'aint moving until the wind drops!
In amongst the trees it was better but the only insects were the Hover Flies hovering under the tree branches.

One this we did see was the ring of seats for the Two Legs to sit on, not that we have ever seen any of them sitting on the seats, mind you, it could be because there were no backs to the chairs and they would fall off!

Well, how about sitting on the floor and leaning against the seat? Well, it was just a thought!
 Next week Miss May is off to the vets again to see about her tail and both Holly and I are going to get pushed, pulled and then stabbed! Of course that means OTL will be crying all the way home!

See you all tomorrow.

Luv,

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

The Rain is Back!

Hello Woofers!

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

Wot a surprise we got today, rain!

It started just as we got out our front door, dark doomy clouds and a sprinkling of the wet stuff!

and the waves had white stuff on the top of them!
Old Two Legs was wondering if he should get the camera out of the car and in the end brought it with him and got a shot of a large container ship coming in off the North Sea!

Can you see the Container Ship?   Large innit?
The sun came out as we went around out walk and just for a couple of minutes it shone down behind one of the trees.

There's the Sun but it won't be out for long!
Lunchtime the rain had gone away for a while and the sun came back again but the wind got up a bit and as it blew straight into OTL's face his hood and jacket blew up like a balloon and he almost took off!

We were glad when we got under the trees cos although it was noisy it wasn't so drafty!

That's better!
 One thing we like seeing as we walk around is the wild Sweet Pea plants. The Missus 'Liberated' some seeds a couple of years ago, stored them in a jug and left them on the window ledge.

They never did sprout!

The seeds are beginning to swell up in the pods, reckon they will be ready for picking come September time!
 Good to Missy Sue back from her rampaging around the country and enjoying a good Internetty Signal from the home Gissmo!

OTL has just got himself one of those EyePlods with a Micro Sim Card so he can get on the Internetty when he is away from home, should be fun setting it up, normally he has to ask The Missus how to do it and the end up shouting at each other about which button to push!

Mind you, this one has to see OTL's finger print before it turns on, now that will be fun!

See you all tomorrow and Good Behaviour Archie Babe or you could end up getting told off!

Luv,

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

OK, who is that coughing?

Hello Woofers!

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

We headed off for our morning walk and surprise surprise, no rain! In fact it was quite mild and heading towards being warm and sunny!

Old Two Legs brought the camera which was lucky, as you'll find out!

A smooth beginning to the day!
As we were walking along the top path sniffing the sniffs, we spotted four woofers coming in the opposite direction. There was one spaniel type woofer that was tearing about all over the place, like wot they normally do.

The other three woofers were all Pug's! Now we have seen Pug's before but not very often, so these three deserved a sniff!

There were two of them who wanted to play sniff but the third was looking for trouble.

He stood next to OTL and began to bark in the most vicious way. Well, we think it was a bark but it sounded more like a weasel with a bad cough!

That didn't stop him, on and on he went woofing his tail off and it was so difficult not to laugh at his attempt to do a decent woof!

Hang on, I'm getting there!
Now wot made it funnier was OTL tickling the Pug's tail, like wot he does to all woofers who want to be friendly!

So there was OTL Tickling the Tail of this Pug who was almost choking trying to woof.

Wot made it worse was the silly woofer was throwing his head back to try a 'Howl' and nearly choked on his tongue!

......................and then I'll kick seven sort of poo out of you!
Well, we just couldn't take any more and headed off laughing louder than this Pug was woofing!


It's no good, we can't stand any more!
It was great just to get back to OTL's insects!


Hey! Can you hear that funny coughing?
 Lunchtime came and we headed off to the beach but the tide was out and to be honest, we didn't fancy running in the mud!

Well I'm not swimming in that mud, how about t he sand?
So, that's just what Holly did, even though OTL was telling her to 'Get Up'!

Once she gets going there is no way to stop her, so we had to sit on the sea wall and wait!

............................and a little roll here and a little role there!
 Mind you, it was good to get out of the sun and under the trees, all we needed was a bit of wind and it would have been perfect!

Not a Rabbit to be seen!
The rest of the day we spent snoozing, except when Eric, who was cuddling up to Miss May in one of the ferret hammocks, fell off the hammock and landed flat on his back in the bottom of their cage, just missing a rather large lump of poo!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

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

Wot is this Wet Stuff?

Hi Woofers!

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

Now then, first the important bit!

Miss May went down the vets and had her tail examined and although there is an improvement, it still hasn't healed. So, Old Two Legs has to keep on with the antibiotics for another ten days. That is giving Miss May the antibiotics not OTL!

On the next visit the vet will do a small operation to remove the muck and stuff from her tail which should make it all better. The vet put some stuff on the sore bit and said that it would act like 'Getting rid of a Verruca', what ever a verruca is!

Wasn't last night just great? I mean, Coooool!

Mind you there was some rain during the night but we were all too tired to bother with listening to it!

Mind you, good news, it's too wet to do the pond digging and too wet to give me a wash and hair cut!

Result!

Today we have been out for our walk and OTL had to judge just when by looking at the Rain Radar on the Internetty!


I'll be glad when the sun comes back!
Half way around the walk we go under some trees and then the rain drips onto the leaves and leaves us dryish!

How come we never see any rabbits here under the trees?
Holly thought she saw a rabbit and dashed off but all I saw was a pigeon so I left Holly to do the chasing bit!

Mind you, OTL and I got back to the car and came across Erik who was just about to start his walk. Of course he loves OTL and always gets a tickle on his tail!

Normally Holly and him have a sniff but today she was late in arriving after all that rabbit chasing, so she missed out today!

Poor Holly!

Erik the lad they call me!
The Missus was up the village hall today doing some 'glue slapping' and OTL has been messing about doing some manufacturing and getting ready for Monday so he can ship it all off!

OTL had an email through today telling him that they can't mend his laptop and please can they have some money for not having the spare parts which they don't make any more!

OTL was not a happy puppy!

Tomorrow it is F1 racing so we are all looking forward to seeing that.

See you all tomorrow!

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

It's Hot!

Hello Woofers!

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

Well, nothing much has happened today, it's been hot and although the clouds came over the top of us there was no wet stuff landing in the garden.

Last night it rained but we were all asleep and the few bangs of thunder hardly woke us up, just Holly Chops and she went back to bed after The Missus shouted at her!

Holly jumped up onto the bed and cuddled up next to Old Two Legs head and gave his ear a good licking!

Well, it keeps her quiet!

Miss May is off to the vet to see about her tail so we can't hang around. Let's face it a tail is a most important part of a woofer, even if it is a ferret!

See you all tomorrow and it's a toss up between doing some gardening around the pond, giving me a wash and hair cut or watching the F1 Qualifying!

Bye for now!

Luv,

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

Busy Doing Nothing!

Hi Woofers!

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

Wot a day! We saw 34 on the in car temperature gauge and you know, we were all well up for a run at lunch time but as soon as we got out of the car it seemed like we had his a hot brick wall!

Old Two Legs had his camera with him but there was a sad lack of insects to photograph!

All we saw was a small Dragonfly having a breather!

It''s just too hot to hunt!
Holly and I kept to the shady bits and even shared a sniff, well, it's just too hot to argue about it!

Sharing a sniff with Sis!
One of the good things is that half of the walk is under the trees which is great in the wet cos that keeps the rain off and in the sunshine we can stay cool in the shade!

Heads up girl, there's sunshine ahead!
Back home it was a hard job finding a cool place but after a small hunt I decided that under OTL's desk was the best place!

Well, nothing much left to report on except that the forecast is for rain, thunder and lightening over the next few days!

Now, I don't mind the rain but thunder tends to upset Holly so we have to look after her!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

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