Today It's Drafty And Cold!

Yo Ho Woofers!

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

Well, not the best of days, we went out this morning into a force eight gale, well it might as well be a force eight cos Old Two Legs was forever wiping his eyes!

It doesn't worry us woofer too much 'cos we spend most of our time with our noses in the grass looking for sniffs and the hair around our eyes keeps the wind out!

Young Eric looks to be back to rude health now. The medicine has now finished and he is bouncing around the house!

To help get the medicine down his throat we have ended up mixing it with a convalescence powder and some Lactose Free Milk. Miss Snowflake and Miss May loved this mixture and it was a good way of getting them to take their medicine.

In an attempt to not waste anything and give Eric something he loves, we will be finishing the powder off, mixed with the milk.

This morning OTL mixed up a small bowl full and as soon as it was put down Eric was straight in, slurp, slurp, slurp!

Miss Wendy saw what he was doing and charged over to the bowl and poked her nose in, shoving Eric out of the way.

Wendy loves this stuff!

Eric, not wanting to miss out, sort of slid back into the bowl, at an angle, licking at the mixture in double quick time!

The pair soon made short work of the mixture and before you could say 'Ferret', the bowl was licked clean!

Lunchtime we were out again and the wind was blowing just as hard, OTL even took his glasses off and we had to guide him along the footpath!

He wanted to take a picture of the Two Trees so we walked him past and told him that the Poo Bin and Bench had gone!

So, where is the Poo Bin?

 

 The wind was blowing off shore so there were no white horses out to sea and being at high tide the fishermen were out teaching the worms to swim!

 

 Loads of wind but no fish!

 Once we were over the hill and out of the wind OTL put his hood down. We spotted Fred brushing up all the weeds that were chopped down when the mower went over them. OTL says he would rather have weeds 'cos then the insects have something to feed on, let's face it, grass is only good for sheep and cattle plus the odd horse!

 

All together now........'Fred! You missed a bit!'

 

 

Back home again and OTL has been hiring a man to sort out the heating boiler 'cos it has a small leak plus next week he is off to hospital to get his eyes lasered, well, next week they are going to be looking at his eye then he has to go back to get them zapped!

See you all tomorrow.

 

Luv,

 

Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret.

 

And I Just Hate Wet Wednesdays as well!

 Hi Woofers!

We are back again, Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret!

Don't you just hate it when one day seems to be just like the last few days? I mean, 

Monday = Wet, 

Tuesday = Wet 

and now Wednesday = Wet

Last night around 02:30 the rain came down in bucket loads, well, so said Holly. She got up with The Missus and decided she needed a wee, so she headed to the back door and asked to go out. Only problem was that there was loads of rain falling out of the sky!

Well, Holly sat there on the kitchen door step looking into the dark trying to pluck up enough courage to go out for a wee in the rain, then, taking a deep breath she jumped down and plunged into the dark, just missing the pond and rushed over to the grass for what must have been the fastest wee on record!

I stayed in bed where it was warm and dry!

In-between rain showers we rushed around the old golf course and was soon back home, wet and damp.

Once again Eric and Wendy were having a great time rolling around on the doggy towels, even though they were just a little damp. Old Two Legs was playing 'Hunt the Ferret' with them both and was using the squeaky rubber balls to tempt them out from under the chairs. OTL even looked under the TV and found the best rubber ball, a lump of Teeth Cleaning Chew and an inky smoothie Eric had hidden some days ago.

Now, we haven't yet found the Maggs Smoothies yet, you see Eric has hidden them but just where is a mystery, OTL thinks they are in TM's craft room where she stores all the paper and stuff but the trouble is there are loads of plastic boxes to shift before you can get behind them all!

Lunchtime OTL spotted a windo in the rain and off we went down to the beach. There were some white horses on the waves but not very big. One thing we did see was a Fairy Circle, well that's what OTL called it. You could see the fungi growing around the edge of the circle. OTL says that he has seen fungi circles around thirty feet in diameter!

That's one big plant!

Over on the football field behind our house there are a couple of big circles but although there is a circle, there are no fungi growing, so we will have to wait and see what the autumn brings!

See you all tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret.
