Back to work again!

 Hi Woofers!

Us again, Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret.

Another good day here in North Kent. The sun was shining on our morning walk around the old golf course and the grass is getting longer and there are some that are showing the seed heads as well!

Even better is the number of 'Goats Beard' or 'Jack go to bed at midday', which is a plant the closes its flower around midday!

Old Two Legs got us all back home in time for him and Eric to get off to the vet to see about Eric's sore paw.

The vet first gave Eric a 'once over' with the pushing and poking and then decided to listen to his heart with her stethoscope thing.

Eric knew he had to be still for this, so, he sat up on his backside, held onto OTL's hand so he shouldn't fall over, then as the vet got closer, Eric decided to give her ear a good licking!

Ooooh! He is one sneaky ferret!

The vet then said she would give Eric some anti-biotic Amoxicillin and instructed OTL to give some to Eric twice a day!

OTL was forced to hand over loads of dosh and got kicked out 'cos he was making such a fuss!

They can be so cruel you know!

Lunchtime OTL was still working on the computer so Holly and I gave him the woof and pointed towards our lead, walkies time!

  First there were the sniffs!


 Then there is the Two Trees and a Poo Bin to have a sniff at.

  Then there were a few of the yellow flowers.

 Of course, all this sniffin' is hard work so while OTL was looking at some small flowers, Holy and I had a rest under the bench!

 

 

 

 You could see just how much the Daisy Flowers have grown, there were so many you could hardly see the grass!


 It was while we were resting that OTL spotted the Foxglove hiding behind the Nettles!

 Now, this is the first time we have seen the foxglove in this part of the forest!

 

 Going past the Oak Tree we saw some stuff that OTL reckons is Oak Apple Gall and is caused by the Oak Gall Wasp. We will have to keep an eye on this as we pass it every day on our lunchtime walk.

Back home for a snooze and a laugh at OTL trying to get Eric to take his medicine!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret.

Another sunny Sunday.

 Hi Woofers!

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

After all the wet stuff the other day it was just great to get some sunshine today.

We had a very relaxing walk around the golf course this morning, did a bit of bird watching and then back home to a few jobs to finish off the caravan.

  OK, a little cloud but not very much and the sky was still blue!

 Holly and I enjoyed the run around at lunchtime, loads of sniffs but no other woofers!

 I do enjoy a run on the football field and there are loads of posts to sniff at and wee on!


There is one part of the walk that is full of flowers, just two types but loads of them!

Holly loves a roll on the flowers and pretending to Old Two Legs that there is a big pile of poo she is rolling in.

It does get OTL going and he spends all his time jumping up and down and calling her a 'Stinky Woofer'


I'm not a Stinky Woofer, not really!


The rest of the sea front is all grass!

Eric is off to the vet tomorrow, let’s hope there is nothing seriously wrong with his leg!

Bye for now.

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret.

It wasn't sticky enough in the corner!

 Hello Woofers!

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

First things first, Old Two Legs has asked the vet to take loads of money off him, in other words, Eric has an appointment to see the vet on Monday morning about his lump on his leg.

OTL has been doing some serious looking and decided that the lump is not part of his paw but rather a lump caused by a thorn off a bramble bush or it could even be a scratch that has gone septic.

When OTL touches the lump, Eric doesn't jump about or act as though it is sore or hurts, so, maybe an injection of anti-biotic stuff may cure him.

Now, as you all know, yesterday it rained and it rained and it rained. We didn't do too much and got wet in the process!

This morning The Missus pokes her head into the office and says that there is water coming through one of the caravan roof lights.

Now, that is not supposed to happen!

So, after the morning stroll and some cage cleaning OTL set about removing the unit and inspecting it for leaks.

The only thing he could find was a corner where the adhesive looked like it would allow water to pass under the lip of the moulding. So, OTL sets about scraping all the adhesive off and goes to the caravan shop to get some stuff called Mastic Tape.

After sticking this onto the roof light and screwing it down we now wait for next rain to fall to see if his mending works!

This engineering too most of the day and would you believe it, TM took us out at lunchtime and mid-afternoon and again late afternoon!

We like TM taking us for walkies but we don't go to the sea side but around the old golf course again and again and again!

With any luck OTL will be back in charge tomorrow and we will get down to the coast!

Bye for now.

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret.
