Wash, Splosh and The Glue Slappers!

Hello Woofers!

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

Yep, we are back again and what a day!

It started off with The Missus getting up at some ridiculous time and waking everyone up!

We were out early for our walk and it was dark when we started and dark when we finished! Mind you, tomorrow it will be the winter solstice which means it will be the shortest day and as from Monday the days will be longer and the nights shorter!

Spring is coming!

Old Two Legs kept his promise and both Holly and I got washed and blow dried then attacked with scissors and electric shaver!

We now look all clean and half way to being bald!

Just like Archie Babe, we got our butt shaved as well!

TM spent the day up with her mates at the village hall doing some last minute Glue Slapping and Glitter Flinging!

I mean what a dodgy bunch they all look!

We tried to pinch some grub but got caught and ejected from the hall!
 Mind you, back home we had a really lazy time, snoozing on OTL's lap while he had a snooze after clearing up all the hair from the floor and putting away all the haircutting tools!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret.

A good ending to a sad tale.

Hello Woofers!

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

Last night the weatherman had forecast storms and rain and floods an loads of stuff! This morning it was raining, but not much, we didn't bother with our rain coats.

Dark and grey was all we saw this morning, not even a sunrise! There were puddles all over the place and of course there was squidgy mud as well!

When we got to the car park Holly and I walked through a puddle to wash off the mud and then a good shake to get rid of the water!

Back home it was off to the office and under the desk for a snooze!

Lunch time it wasn't any better, only just a little lighter!

As we walked around the path we came across a couple of woofers, one we know and one we didn't.

Old Two Legs was told by the Two Legs that she had taken possession of the new woofer which looked rather bald and a little unsure of it's self.

We all had a sniff but the new woofer growled and then we had a bit of an Arggy Barggy. It seems this little woofer was found lost, mucky and covered in mud. It looks like she had been wandering for some time.

She is, we think, a Bichon Frise, but the hair cut she had has made her nearly bald!

It's going to take a while for her grow it back again but when she does it should make her look a lot better!

Well, we can say that this is one little woofer who is going to have a very special Christmas this year, a warm bed and good food!

We just love happy endings!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,


Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret.

Back to a Grey Day!

Hi Woofers!

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

What a day! It has been threatening to rain for most of the day, the clouds have been building from the South all day.

It looks like rain soon!
 Holly and I didn't hang about much and we were quick on a wee and then home!

We didn't know what Old Two Legs had planned for us, if we did we might have spent more time wee'ing!

Well, while Holly and I were snoozing under the desk OTL was getting stuff out of the shed.

That table that has the metal work onto which OTL hangs harnesses when we have a hair cut!

After setting it all up Holly was first called into the kitchen, lifted up and plonked onto the table.

Then it started, OTL set about giving Holly a good brush and also cut out the hair that had matted at the top of her front legs.

Holly was not happy and set about trying to escape. So, she twisted around and collapsed onto the table and at the same time she tucked her tail under her butt!

OTL didn't stop brushing and I was having fun standing outside the kitchen door woofing at Holly and winding her up!

That was OK except that as soon as he had finished with Holly I was tricked into going into the kitchen and before I realised I had been conned, I was up on the table with my collar being removed!

That's it, I was brushed and clipped and lumps of hair cut out from my legs!

Now, as I was headed out of the kitchen I heard OTL tell The Missus that he was going to give us a wash and haircut!

The things we have to do for Christmas!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret!

It's the clocks fault!

Hi Woofers!

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

We had some fun this morning. You remember yesterday when Old Two Legs got up too early? Well, yesterday he found some batteries and fired up the clock again and put it on the bedside table.

It looked super, glowing away in the darkness and getting signals from somewhere to tell it what the time is.

So, normal time came and we all headed off to bed. The Missus was first to bed followed by us a little while later after our night time snack!

OTL climbed into bed and was soon snoring his tail off, as normal!

This morning arrived and OTL was still sleeping. TM had got up early and crept out of the bedroom and headed down stairs to finish making Christmas Cards.

She had remembered to shut the bedroom door and in doing so, OTL carried on snoozing, until gone seven!

That was it, out he fell from bed banging his head on the wall!

I went back to sleep under the duvet he had thrown off!

Being so late, we got to the sea wall in time to see the sunrise, not that it was spectacular but we hadn't seen it for some time seeing how we have been getting up at six and walking in the dark!

There you go, it's behind the cloud!
 We walked on a little further and just where we left the Grain Rock the other day. OTL spotted a tree whose leaves had all gone and the bough was bending over making a frame around where the sun was trying to climb up over the clouds, so, clicky click click went the camera and this fell out when we connected it to the computer!

Not bad, maybe he should have lost a bit more foreground?
Now, how about some really good news?

Another four days and it will be the shortest day, or longest night and Spring will be on its way!

We will have a few days of snow followed by a couple of frosty mornings and then sunshine and buds bursting!

Oh, I forgot, there will be Christmas and during January it will be OTLs birthday, so, plenty of warning, we want a really rude and naughty birthday song for him!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret!

What has he been doing?

Hi Woofers!

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

Today has been a bit of a mystery, let me explain.

Now, normally Old Two Legs wakes up just before six in the morning and staggers out for a shower leaving me tucked up under the duvet he has just thrown over me on his way to the bathroom.

After a while, out he comes all sniffing of shower jell and tooth paste!

Then, once he is dressed we head off for our morning walk.

Not this morning!

OTL wakes up, rolls over to take a look at the clock just to check he isn't late for getting up.

This morning the batteries in the bedside clock have run out of electricity, like, the batteries are flat and instead of a pale green light shining on the dark grey numbers, there is nothing, no numbers, no green light, nuffin!

Now, OTL is a logical sort of Two Legs and reckoned that as The Missus was up and he was awake and feeling bright, then it must be around six. So, off he goes, throws the duvet over me and heads off for a shower believing all is OK.

Oh no it isn't!

After the shower, out he comes and starts rooting through the sock drawer, up comes TM asking if OTL is OK?

Yep, all OK says OTL, then what are you doing up at four in the morning?

WOT?  Four!!!!!!!

That was it, OTL has his socks on and decided that he won't go back to bed, instead he will have a cup of tea and read a book until it's time to go walkies!

Me? I went back to bed and crawled back under the duvet to finish of my sleep!

The Grain Rock was still on the bench this morning but it disappeared when we went past at lunchtime!

This afternoon OTL was off with the both cars to get them washed and cleaned inside as well and then he purchased a big cushion to go in the back of the small car and that replaced the old doggy bed we have been using for the last three or four years!

OTL has found some batteries to put into the clock, so we can expect him to have an early night, followed by a long sleep and wake up at six, providing of course TM closes the bedroom door when she gets up at four thirty!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Hi Woofers!

A Christmas Rock!

Hi Woofers!

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


Ever have one of those days when you wish there was a storm or something going on, just to brighten up the sky? Today has been a little bit like that, I mean, boring or wot!


Old Two Legs has been plonking away on the computer and mumbling all sorts of curses, we think the computer is trying to wind OTL up!

The weather has been boring, lunchtime when we went out we at first thought that the sea had run away, then we realised that it was so calm it was almost the same colour as the sky!


Well, there's not so many wrinkles in the sky!
On our way to the car park we spotted it, there, on the gate post was a Grain Rock!

OTL said it was a picture of Santa Paws with a Christmas Tree tucked under his arm!

We took it and put it on a bench a bit further on and this time OTL decided to put where you couldn't miss it, well, we don't want Santa Paws to get lost!

Ho, Ho, Ho, anyone seen my reindeer?
We got a Christmas card from Auntie Sue and Nunki Mike, we are going to let Eric and Wendy have it on their cage!


Eric was asking OTL if he could have the new cushion, made by Ayoti, but OTL says he wants it for his back!


Given time I reckon Eric will pinch it!


See you tomorrow,


Luv,


Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret!

Wotts This on the Chair?

Hi Woofers!

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

We love Sundays, no real work, just playing about with any thing we want. I had a great game with Old Two Legs, I found a yellow tennis ball and OTL tossed it down the stairs and I rushed down, found it under the chair, grabbed it and rushed back upstairs to my bed and sat on it waiting for OTL to try and take it!

Fat chance!

After breakfast Holly and I headed back to bed and the ferrets came out to play!

Eric's first job is to try to rob OTL of some of his milk from the cereal, only to find OTL had slurped it all!

Not fair! I deserve a slurp or two!
 It wasn't too long before Eric and Wendy discovered a cushion on OTL's chair which had some very interesting pictures!

African Ferrets?
 Well, that set both ferrets on a major investigation of the cushion, sniffing it all over, up the top and then underneath!

Eric reckons it is not edible!
They took it in turns to sniff and in the end decided that they couldn't eat it or bury it and it was just too good to do a poo on!

'ere! This ones got a red hat on!
They had a super time trying to roll it off the chair but OTL says that was not allowed and they should just sniff it!

I reckon there will be more fun with the cushion over the coming months! Who knows, they might pinch it and use it in their sleeping quarters!

Just for a change, it didn't rain here today but there was enough wind to blow the clouds away, so, the vista was, shall we say, bland?

Bland? Nah, just dead boring!
 We are planning to watch a couple of DVDs this evening, so that means we will be starting around tea time and be finished by bed time!

Tomorrow OTL has a lot of work to do on the computer getting ready for his customer to do some tests before Christmas, with a bit of luck!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

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

A most Relaxing day!

Hi Woofers!

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

Well, today has been one of those terribly lazy days, you know, get up late and sort of forget to look at all the jobs you mean to do, like have a nibble of the new grass around the pond or hunt chews that have been stolen by the ferrets!

The wind has been blowing from the west so that means half of the time we were walking with the wind blowing up our tails and the other half blowing up our noses!

Unusually, we only saw a couple of other woofers who, like us, were not hanging about but rather heading for home as fast as their paws would take them!

After all the cages were cleaned and ferrets put away we jumped up onto Old Two Legs lap and enjoyed a snooze and a cuddle while he read a book!

The lunchtime walk wasn't any more exciting, we kept an eye open but there were no more Grain Rocks and the Cat Rock hadn't appeared anywhere else on our walking places.

Holly says that we may see some over the Christmas period and we have got to keep our eyes open.

Lunchtime the wind had changed direction a little and all the clouds had blown away leaving a cloudless but boring sky.

I mean, dead boring!

Oh! That looks exciting!
 The afternoon was spent cuddled up to OTL and he carried on reading his book while Holly and I snoozed our tails off.

We reckon The Missus will be home soon so we must get to the bedroom window to keep an eye open for her.

Holly reckons she will come back covered with glitter looking like the fairy on top of the Christmas Tree!

See you all tomorrow!

Luv,

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

So, Where's the Cat Rock??

Hi Woofers!

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

Well, Friday again!

We like Friday 'cos we all sort of wind down and try very hard not to have anything to do that has to be done over the weekend!

Holly and I have been searching under all the chairs and the sofa and the boxes in The Missus card room. We have to look carefully 'cos Teeth Cleaning Chews hidden by sneaky ferrets who have pinched them from our beds!

Today we sent Old Two Legs under the boxes and chairs and he found a couple of ink stained Smoothy's!

It seems to have been raining all day or every time we wanted to go out and we all ended up with wet paws from walking in the puddles!

Holly and I are always getting our paws wet in the muddy puddles but we do have a laugh when OTL walks into the big puddle in the car park and proceeds to run on the spot cleaning the mud off his wellies!

I mean, he looks just like one of the Mini Two Legs messing about in the puddles!

We stopped on our way around the 'Walk' at the spot where the Grain Rock of the cat was positioned and found it had gone!

It will be interesting to see if it gets relocated anywhere else. We will have to have a good look tomorrow lunchtime. Providing it's not raining of course!

We haven't heard of any bones emitting from Archie Babe so maybe Holly's guess that he has acid in his tummy that will melt bones!

Talking of food, Auntie Sue seems to be out every day searching for and finding all sorts of food. She is as bad as Holly who has a life long desire to not only to find food but to consume as much as she can get down her chops!

TM is off to the village hall for some Glue and Glitter games tomorrow, that means that OTL will be able to have a snooze after lunch!

He gets all the best jobs!

See you all tomorrow and claws crossed, the rain might have stopped!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret.

Roof Top Fun!

Hello Woofers,

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

It has been another one of those damp, dark and drizzly days. If it were not for the need of a wee and a poo I might have turned around and gone back home!

It was dark this morning and there was a horrible wind blowing, there was no sign of any other woofers, not even a wee sniff!

Back home Old Two Legs was rushing around cleaning the ferret cages and replenishing the food bowl. There was time for a little game but soon OTL was saying 'Bye Bye' to us all as he headed out the door.

It seems that his expertise was needed regarding some of the stuff he sells. It was wet and rainy and there was OTL standing on top of the roof of a big academy lecturing about communication coverage while the wind was blowing rain through his woolly hat!!

I'm glad he knows what he is talking about 'cos I don't understand a word he says!

It was lunchtime before he got back and he said he was not only cold but wet as well!

Again, down on the sea wall there were no woofers and the wind was blowing even harder than this morning. It was definitely a case of 'Get it done and Home!'

Not satisfied with that, it wasn't long before they were off again to the village hall to vote, well it made a change from scattering glitter all over the place!

Eric and Wendy have been having a great time rampaging around the house. They are having so much fun together they are even both getting under the sofa and having a cuddle!

It's good to see them together, better than fighting!

Friday tomorrow and we will all be getting ready for the weekend, shame there is no F1 racing but Holly and I might mark out our own race track around the lounge and challenge the ferrets to a race!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret!
