Doggy Coats?

Hi Woofers!

Daisy and Eric de Ferret here!

Well, it's been a good day today, it started with Old Two Legs getting up later than normal, mind you, it wasn't cold at all and there was only a mild breeze.

We met up with Max and Oscar starting on their walk, we spent some time searching for sniffs then they had to go along the top path while I wanted to check out a rotting gull that was stewing nicely down on the sea wall!

Yeah, I'm allowed to sniff the gull but I mustn’t roll in it, even with my coat on!

I carried on but couldn't find the gull anywhere, I found the sniff but there was nothing there, I blame foxes myself!

The sun had got up and was heading off towards midday!

Well, midday is the next stop on its path!

OTL was playing about looking for interesting shots of the sun playing onto the tree barks.

Not exactly awe inspiring!

Lunchtime was fun, there I was strolling along, thinking about gull sniffs when three little Yorkie Woofers came over the hill and charged down the hill woofing their tails off at me!

Well, being a lot smaller than me, all it took was one woof from me and the stopped! 

Then they were all over OTL like a rash!

There was no harm to them and we got on OK without any trouble. They were new to this part of the world and said they would love to come back again in the future.

OK, one at a time lads!

OTL needed to get a jiffy bag posted but the local post office was shut, so was the next village and so was the one at Grain!

There was no other post office close so it was a ten-mile run into Rochester to the main post office!

Back home, OTL went back to plonking on the computer and made like he was working hard!

I, on the other paw jumped up on his chair and had a super afternoon snooze!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy and Eric de Ferret.

It's the Dentist!

Hi Woofers!

Daisy and Eric de Ferret again!

Well, not such a good day, it rained last night and that made the ground soggy.

On top of that there was no sunrise, in fact we couldn’t see any sign of a red sky, just loads of grey clouds!

After cleaning the cage, Old Two Legs was off to the dentist to get a couple of fillings done. Actually, it wasn't too bad, three years and only two fillings!

Mind you, the bill could have been for three missed years!

After that we took the car back to have the radio bit installed. OTL reckons tomorrow he will be able to listen to Classic FM all the way home!

Boring!

Eric has been bouncing around his cage and OTL has allowed him out for a scamper and a cuddle.

Once again, as soon as he was put onto his blanket, he was rushing to get out again for another cuddle!

He soon settled back down again and tucked himself under the blanket.

That's it for today, nothing too exciting, just a gentle day!

See you tomorrow.

Luv,

Daisy and Eric de Ferret.

Eric has been a right pain today!

Hello Woofers!

Daisy and Eric de Ferret here.

First thing this morning, before the sun got up and while it is still dark and cold, I woke Old Two Legs up in my normal fashion, a cold wet nose in his ear!

That always wakes him up but does nothing for his good humour!

We headed off to the sea front and it was exceedingly windy with a nasty wind chill as well!

We were a little early for the sunrise but was treated to an ever-changing vista over the top of Sheerness!

You can tell it's still dark but the sun could light up the clouds. It was a better shot five minutes earlier but OTL couldn't get across the football field quick enough!

Just as we got around the corner it started to change again and the clouds were begining to get lighter!

Then, the sun poked its head over the horizon and there was the sunrise!

Back home Eric was being a right pain. He would cuddle up in OTL's arms and pretend to go to sleep. OTL would then put him back under the blanket for him to sleep but as soon as his butt hit the blanket, he was up and scrambling to get into OTLs arms again!

This went on for ages and OTL couldn't get any work done, so, Eric got packed up in the travelling cage and off we went down to the football field where Eric was taken out and put down on the grass for a run!

Eric don't do running!

A slow waddle maybe but today is his first time out for ages and he had forgotten what the grass smelt like and how the earth was damp and cold!

The walk was longer than normal but Eric got to have a walk between being carried in the Ferret Bag!

Back home it didn't take long for him to fall asleep under the blanket and that is where he stayed all afternoon, allowing OTL to get on with some work!

See you all tomorrow.

Luv,

Daisy and Eric de Ferret.
