Winter is coming!

 Hello Woofers!

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

I don't know about you lot but it seems to be getting colder. OK, I know that it's November and we are getting close to Winter but it would have been nice to have a little warmer breeze!

This morning, walking around the old golf course, Old Two Legs was trying to point out the layout of the fairways. Like, this one he called out as 'Hole Number Nine'.

It just looks like a load of grass to me!

This one is Hole Number Six and is a Par Four, whatever that is!

This is a 'Water Hazard' and the Grey Heron was hiding in the reeds!

Holly says that the Heron was employed to fish out any golf balls that went into the water and sell them back to the golfers!

Lunchtime we were back down the beach again and the clouds were beginning to look 'Dramatic' which OTL says is a sure sign that the stormy weather is coming!


 Now, what we need is this cloud formation, first thing in the morning before the sunrise!

We met up with a small woofer who was all of seventeen weeks old, she was all Rush Around and getting all excited about meeting us and sniffing our noses then rushing off to OTL for a quick stroke!


 Hello Mr Two Legs!

There was a Silver Birch that was about to lose all its leaves and the colour of the leaves was brilliant when set against the other trees.



 Yep! Winter is a coming!

Where did the sunrise go to?

 Hi Woofers!

Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret with you again.

We were up early today so we could get the big car back down to the menders. The sun was still below the horizon so the sky was a little muted, but Old Two Legs got close to the hedge and took this shot. Can you see the birds on the wire?


Early morning shot across the football field.

It was amazing that by the time we came back to the football field after wandering around the golf course, the sun was up and it was all bright and cloudy!

Mind you, with the overnight rain we saw the drops of water on the pine needles. OTL said it looked interesting and of course just couldn't resist taking a shot!


The pine cones that fall out of the tree are massive, I mean, they look like rugby balls but they hang on for ages!

Back home we were left on our own as OTL headed off to the menders and found that he had to leave the car there all day so that they could get the spare parts. That means OTL had to wait for The Missus to come and pick him up.

While he was waiting, he had a stroll along the Saxon Way and spotted a squirrel running through the bushes and trees. He also saw this bunch of fungi on the grass, we don't know its name but it looked interesting enough to take a picture with the phone!

OK, paws up, who knows what it's called?

TM arrived and off he went back home.

It's now half past four and there is no sign of the car so we reckon they will be keeping it overnight 'cos they haven't got the spare parts.

It's a good job OTL doesn't need the car!

Just as I typed that last line, the phone rang and it was the menders. 'The Spare Parts will be tree to four days' says the man. As we said, it's a good job we don't need the car!

See you tomorrow.

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret.
