HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO US!

Hello Woofers!

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

First, the good news. Old Two Legs had put one of The Missus pinafores in the big bed on the top floor of the cage. You see, Wendy loves curling up in the pinny box for a snooze after the morning rampage around the house.

Having put a pinny in the cuddle cup she normally uses, OTL watched her get in for a snooze. Then, a little while later he looked into the cuddle cup and found Eric curled up next to Wendy!

Wendy was on one side of the pinny and Eric on the other. Now we were sure that Wendy knew Eric was there but hadn't made a move to throw him out!

So, we reckon it's a Birthday Present from the Ferrets, just for us!

Claws crossed that things get better!

It was dark when we went out and just for a change, it wasn't raining!

There was not big sunrise 'cos the clouds were all dark and grey but OTL used the flash setting just for a 'Birthday Picture'.

Two Ten Year Old Puppies!

Back home we opened our presents and ran off up stairs to enjoy our chews!

After the ferrets went back to bed, Holly and I played a game of 'Chase The Ball' with OTL. He would throw a tennis ball out of the office and it would bounce off the landing wall and down the stairs!

Good fun!

Lunchtime the sun was out and we were off down to the beach! One of the good things is that as it's our birthday, we get to have a roll without OTL telling us off!

Oi! I've found another sniff!

 Then, after a roll we had a chase up and down the beach, good fun!

Wheeeeeeeeeee!

 Well, after all that running we got back onto the Sea Wall and had a breather before setting off for the forest!

Which way, left of right?

 When we got to the bench we decided to have a rest and let some Mini Two Legs go past. Holly reckons it is Half Term as they had their parents with them!

It's OK, if we bark they squeal then run off!

 The leaves are still falling down in the forest and it won't be long before there will be only branches.

We had a good look but there were no Grain Rocks to be found either on the ground or up the trees!

You can see further through the trees now!

Tonight we have some special food being cooked for us, Beef stew especially made for woofers!

Yum Yum!

Thanks for all the Happy Birthday wishes on here and the FaceAche that TM runs, and who was it that said Love To Eric?

See you all tomorrow when we will be ten years and one day old!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret!

Not the best Monday!

Hi Woofers!

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

Today it has been one of those Mondays that happen now and again, you know, wake up and hear the rain hammering on the window and Old Two Legs still wants to take us out for a walk!

Not the best way to start the day!

The ferrets refused to come out of their beds so we had OTL to ourselves!

The only good thing was, we did our walk on a fast trot!

It was dark when we left home and dark when we got back so we didn't have time to look for the rock Eric found yesterday. Maybe on our lunchtime walk we will find it and move it up into the tree!

While we were drying off on a pile of woofer blankets we heard the screams of Miss Wendy coming from The Missus stowage room. OTL went in and found the pair of them rolling around on the floor!

The trouble with them is that they are just as bad as each other, Eric has a sniff them Wendy launches at him screaming and Eric turns around so Wendy is talking to his butt!

Warfare doesn't last long and off they both go searching for chews and squeaky balls!

OTL spent the morning on the computer sending out invoices, he likes that job!

Now, we have been looking at the calendar and guess what?

Tomorrow is our birthday!

Yep! We will be all of ten years old!

Me and OTL when I was one year old!

We have been looking at some photos from when we were younger and up to today, there must be thousands of them!

Us looking all young and cute!

We even have some silly ones, like wot this is!

Holly the Whelk!

So, tomorrow we are expecting some Birthday Presents and a load of songs!

The ferrets have done a painting that we are going to get OTL to frame!

As if we could forget them!

 Lunchtime we were out in the rain again but we had our rain coats on!

We couldn't find Eric's rock so tomorrow he can look for it himself!

We are going to have an early night so we can be up early for our prezzies!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret!

A Fun Sunday!

Hi Woofers!

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

How's been your Sunday? We have been 'Relaxing'!

Old Two Legs said it was us being incredibly lazy but we prefer 'Relaxing'!

Eric came out with us this morning, he was waiting for OTL this morning and wasn't going to miss out a run so he rattled the cage and made such a noise you just couldn't ignore him!

Eric found OTL's jacket pocket for the first time and hid in there until we got out of the wind.

Once he had decided that the wind was gone he wriggled out and was soon dancing through the wet grass sniffing his tail off!

We met up with three other woofers with their Two Legs and each of them gave Eric a tickle behind the head and called him by name!

What did Holly and I get? Nuffin'!

That Eric is getting too big for his tail!

Back home the ferrets had a chance of a rampage around the house and unseen by us woofers they both pinched our chews and hid them under the furniture in The Missus's stowage room!

Lunchtime OTL convinced Miss Wendy that she would enjoy a run along the Sea Wall even if it was windy!

First of all she hid in OTL's jacket pocket  and stayed there with her nose poking out!

Once we got out of the wind Wendy climbed out and had a good ferret along the beach.

Yes, this is out of the wind and it's rather warm as well!

Holly and I found a good sniff on the beach and took it in turns to sniff and dig!

Go on then, your turn!

Then, once the sniff was dug up we both had a really good roll!

This is the way to do it!

As we headed back to the car Wendy found a Grain Rock under a pile of leaves and after clearing the leaves away Wendy decided that the rock was going to stay at the base of the tree.

We have agreed to look for it tomorrow morning and if found, we will move it up the tree!

Look! I've found a Rock!

This afternoon Holly decided to go on the hunt for the missing chews and once she had located them she found that she couldn't get them out.

That was it, she sat there and started to woof, then she woofed some more until OTL came to see what the noise was all about.

Next thing OTL was on his knees and reaching under the furniture until he found two Teeth Cleaning Chews that we had lost yesterday!

After getting them out Holly insisted that OTL go back under the furniture and bring out the Brambles Biscuits that were hidden by the ferrets!

Finally, after a big sniff, Holly decided that there were no more sniffs to be sniffed!

That Holly Chops has got a very sensitive nose!

See you all tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret!

Sunny Saturday!

Hi Woofers!

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

We were up early today, it seems that The Missus was attacked by a bit of Lamb Hotpot she made yesterday.!

What was worse was she made enough for six meals!

Seems that the remaining Hot Pot is destined for the compost heap. Shame cos it sniffed quite nice!

Well, an early run wasn't too bad and the ferrets were still fast asleep!

We had a great time, the sun was shining and the sniffs were good and dry!

There were some more fungi that had sprouted and Old Two Legs couldn't resist a photo!

Fungi for Fun!

OTL says that some are good to eat, like the fungi we have with crispy bacon rolls but we have to stay away from the fungi on our walk 'cos they would give us terrible tummy upsets!

Back home the ferrets were awake and fighting. Seems that they both wanted to go down the ramps to the Poo'in Place and were pushing and shoving and That's When the Fight Started!

Holly and I had a great time snoozing the morning away, the Missus had gone off to her Saturday Crop and OTL was on his knees shovelling Ferret Poo!

Lunchtime came and Holly and I were down the Sea Wall again and Holly decided that she felt like running.

I was more interested in the sniffs and mentioned that if Holly tried to run she would wobble so much her harness would fall off!

That's when the fight started! 

Come on, let's have a race!

TM enjoyed herself at the crop and said she felt a lot better than she did this morning!

Sunday should be fun, weather looks like it will be sunny but cloudy!

See you all tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret.

Wet, Wet and more Wet!

Wotcha Woofers!

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

We had a bit of a disturbed night, loads of rain fell down and there were a couple of thunder bangs that woke us up, well everyone except The Missus who ignored all sounds and carried on snoring!

It was still raining when we were ready to go for our walk and we were not looking forward to walking in the ran!

The ferrets stayed in bed and refused to wake up!

Old Two Legs got soaking wet and Holly and I got severely wet but we can have a good shake so we were able to get home in a 'Damp' condition!

As you would expect, OTL left the camera in the car, so no dramatic sunrises, unless you like raindrops on the lens!

Today there is sunshine, followed by rain and sunshine and clouds and sunshine and rain!

I suppose the weather man will say it is 'Changable'!

Lunchtime we headed off again, leaving the ferrets fast asleep and just for a change, the sun shone!

As we walked across the football field we spotted some fungi!

Almost a Circle!

We headed for the woods and there, in the grass, almost hidden from sight was a..........

A Painted Grain Rock!

 OTL picked the rock up and left it on the concrete post, at least you can see it there!

Nearly all the blackberries had gone, just the last few!

 As the mornings are damp and the ground is a bit soggy, there seem to be more fungi poking their flowers up above the ground!

We will have to go down to the woods we used to go to when we were young!

The sky started to get dark so it was a quick run across the field as the sky got darker and darker.

Then the rain came!

It's wet again!

Back home the ferrets were still snoozing and Eric keeps looking into Wendy's cuddle cup and wondering if he should get in for a cuddle but then he bottled out and went back to his bed!

Poor Eric, all he wants is a cuddle!

Trouble is, Eric has got to learn to be a little more gentle when he joins Wendy in her cuddle cup!

See you all tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret.

I Dun Summat I Haven't Dun For a Long Time!

Hello Woofers!

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

Something woke me up early this morning. No idea what it was, no sounds of cats or hedgehogs or lost woofers.

So, having woken up I went for a stroll around the house, doing my Guarding Bit!

Still nothing, so I tried to get back into bed but Holly Chops had wiggled into my bit of the bed and I had to go into the office to carry on my snooze.

Holly stayed where she was for the rest of the night and even cuddled up to Old Two Legs to keep warm!

I made some noise around four thirty and that woke OTL up, so, the next thing is a shower and off for a morning walk!

Both ferrets were fast asleep so it was just Holly and I with OTL out for an early morning stroll.

We got down to the Sea Wall and saw that the moon was out, casting shadows over the rabbits that ran away as soon as they saw us!

A shot of the moon through the clouds!

As we walked along the Sea Wall the sun started to creep towards the horizon. It didn't poke it's face through the clouds but it did light up the sky.

We haven't seen this for a few weeks!

Back home we woke the ferrets up and told them all about the sun rise and the moon. Eric didn't seem interested but he did enjoy the bit about missing out on the moon lit rabbits!

Lunchtime the ferrets were asleep again and Holly and I got to choose which path we went on. Holly left it to me and I chose the path up to the old gun emplacements while OTL was looking for something to photograph.

He just wasn't keeping his eyes on Holly and I. Holly missed it but I found a real mucky sniff and had the best roll I've had for a long time!

By the time OTL noticed I was missing I had got really mucky!

You know, he called me a Mucky Puppy and a Smelly Mutt!

That's the trouble with Two Legs, they just don't appreciate a sniff!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy (the Smell), Holly, Miss Wendy (the Snooze) and Eric de Ferret!

Cometh the Water Butt!

Hi Woofers!

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

You can tell it is Autumn, it seems to rain more often and today's no exception. We were up early and found that Eric was snoring his tail off! Wendy was wide awake and running around the cage.

So it was, Wendy came along with us and cuddled up to Old Two Legs when she felt some rain drops on her ears!

Wendy decided to leave the Ferret Bag and instead creep down OTL's arm and then squeezed her way into an inside pocket of OTL's jacket.

OTL told us that Snowflake was the first one to find that OTL's pocket was a really comfortable to rest!

OTL told us that as she got older she needed a wee more often and it was always a race to get down to the beach before Snowflake wee'd in OTL's pocket!

Wendy said that she would wait until we got to the beach before having a wee and a poo!

Lunchtime Eric was awake and busting to get going and said that he wouldn't ride in OTL's jacket pocket and instead walked all the way along the Sea Wall until he got to the beach.

This looks like a good place to wee!

 As it was high tide, the amount of beach to run on was restricted.

That water is getting closer all the time!

 Holly was glad to get back in the car, she doesn't do rain and was waiting by the car while we were across the other side of the car park.

I really don't do wet!

Now, you all know we have a wild life pond and The Missus has decided that instead of filling it up from a tap we should do it from a water butt that had been sitting for a few days getting a low pH.

Well, the butt arrived today but the container of anti algae ordered at the same time was missing. OTL rang the company and was told that we should look in side the butt, OTL informed the man that the only thing in the butt was water!

It looks like a container of anti algae is going to be sent!

Sorted!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret.

Weasel Sniffin'

Hi Woofers!

Guess who? Yes, it's Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret here!

Wot a change from yesterday, the temperature is up and the wind has gone and we were a whole hour late in getting up!

I must admit to feeling a bit wobbly, I think I might have eaten something that I should have left alone!

This morning I am feeling better but I think another day might sort me out!

Holly is no help, she says that the trouble is chews, like I should leave them alone and let Holly have them all!

Eric came out with us this morning and was pleased that the rain had stopped and the wind had dropped and the sniffs were great under the leaves!

It's a Weasel Sniff, I'm sure of it!

That rock we left on the gate, remember? Well, we found it had moved half way down the forest path. Well, we couldn't leave it there, so Old Two Legs picked it up and put it in the fork of the tree!

Let's see if it is there tomorrow!

Lunchtime we woke Wendy up and off we went again.

The tide was in and I was thinking about having a dip but old Grumpy said that if I did I would get a shower and a hair cut when I got home!

Spoil Sport!

Come on Daisy, no paddling today!

Miss Wendy was enjoying herself, after waking up, and marched nearly all the way along the Sea Wall and then through the forest as well!

Come on, let's race those woofers along the wall!

Mind you, racing woofers is fun but in the end you have to pay.

For a start, woofers have longer legs that a ferret and try as she might, she couldn't keep up with us and when we got to the car she fell asleep!

Wake me when we get home!

That was it, she slept all afternoon and didn't look like she was going to wake up until tomorrow!

Bye for now, see you tomorrow.

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret.

Yucky Monday!

Hello Woofers!

Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret here on a right grotty Monday!

It was so good over the weekend, F1 racing and rampaging around the Sea Front!

This morning we looked out the window and were in two minds whether or not to go for our walk but Eric was jumping up and down and rattling the cage!

It was raining but not too heavy so we decided to carry on.

Eric was having a great time diving into the wet grass and running along the Sea Wall, blooming show off!

I must admit that I was glad to get home, a bit damp and soggy but I got wrapped up in a couple of Doggy Towels and Holly and I had a snooze on the bed while Old Two Legs did his jobs!

Lunchtime we were out again but Wendy decided to stay at home, she said that the wind had got up and it would be too draughty!

Draughty? Really? No, it was a balmy day!

Now, this is what we call 'Breezy'!

 As we walked along the Sea Wall the sea was being blown over the wall and onto the path. Holly got splashed at one time and quickly decided that it looked dangerous and headed up the hill!

This wet is coming from the side instead of falling from above!

 Getting into the woods, away from the Sea Wall we could see that Autumn is galloping along. Leaves are falling and it won't be long before all that will be left is the tree trunks and branches.

Another three weeks and they will all be bald, just like OTL!

 Just before the car park, we had to pass the gate and there, sitting on top of the top bar was.....................A Rock!

It's another Grain Rock!

OTL has been playing on the computer today, since he installed the new modem it's all been flying in the office and there has been no hiccups at all!

See you all tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret.

Sunday, so it must be F1!

Hello Woofers!

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

What a race for first place! It almost was a hectic as when Holly and I race for the treat box after eating all of our dinner!

Eric came out with us this morning but because it was so dark we didn't take the camera with us but after the run Eric was so exhausted he didn't even try to chase Wendy! He had some breakfast, a slurp of Lactose Free Milk and a couple of capfuls of Ferretone and then put himself to bed!

Miss Wendy had the run of the house and enjoyed a game with Old Two Legs where she would chase him until he turned around and then she would roll on her back and laugh her tail off as he tickled her tummy!

Other than beating Eric up she reckons this is the best game!

Lunchtime she was awake so OTL got the cage out and her harness and off we went to the Sea Wall.

OK, I'll race you to the end!

Miss Wendy had a great time, first by running along the Sea Wall 'cos that helped her trim her claws a little. OTL normally trims them for her but she says that the concrete works just as well!

She ran almost all the way along the wall and then down onto the beach. The tide was in and we suggested that she go for a swim!

Not Ferret Friendly!

Mind you, I think I may have had a dip myself but OTL had that 'You Just Try' look in his eyes which meant I would be in his 'Bad Book' if I did!

Something tells me I would be in trouble!

 About half way through our walk the rain started, not heavy but enough to notice!

OK lads, let's head for home!

 We got back to the car and found a rock parked next to the car. Holly asked it if it wanted a ride anywhere but the rock didn't answer her but Wendy suggested that we park it on top of one of the concrete posts to save it getting run over!

Another of the Grain Rocks.

Anyone had a look on FaceAche for Grain Rocks? OTL isn't into FaceAche so we don't know what it's all about.

F1 Racing was good, Hamilton looked grumpy 'cos he came third but his mate Bottas came first!

You'd think he would be pleased for him!

Vettel made a cod's of the start and never looked like getting close to Bottas or letting Hamilton get past!

Loads of bumps and bits falling off the cars, it makes it more interesting when they are allowed to 'Race'!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret!
