The Missus goes Potty in the Big Car!

Hello woofers!

Daisy here again!

Sorry we missed yesterday, blame the Missus!

You see, we are off on holiday soon and will be driving up to Scotland in the big motor. Now, Old Two Legs, being the careful type of Two Legs suggested that TM should have a drive around in the new car to get used to driving it, just in case there was some reason that prevented OTL from driving.

'Oh No'! 

That, plus a couple of other reasons not to do it were declared by TM.

After a while and on the promise that the road will be wide and safe, that TM finally agreed to drive us down to Grain Beach, providing OTL was sitting in the passenger seat!

Well, off we went and TM gently navigated the road through the village and onto the main road.

TM was saying that the car was very comfortable to drive and most responsive to the steering and it really gripped the road with its low-profile tyres and sports suspension.

Once we got past the container port the road opened out to a very wide road.

That's when it happened, TM put her foot down on the accelerator pedal and the car took off like a cat with its butt on fire!

Wheeeeeeeeeeeee! 

The long and the short of it all was TM high jacking the car and taking us for a tour around the Hoo Peninsular trying to get the car to take off!

I'm sure that there were a couple of spots where she did in fact take off, with the help of an undulating road!

By the time we got home OTL and I were feeling a little bit wobbly but at least TM was feeling comfortable driving the big car now!

Today was a more of a gentle ride 'cos TM stayed home messing about with her buckets of glue and glitter. You see tomorrow she and her mates will be meeting up at the village hall for a day of glue slapping and gassing!


Today was sunny with very little wind and I even got to go in for a deep paddle!

There were some of the lads already out and running in and out of the water chasing a rubber ball. It was a big ball and I would have never got my teeth around it, so I let them play!

Go on, splash about then!



We spotted the first bits of Laburnum flowers opening up, so it won't be long before all the butterflies will be out!

Well, that's it for today, let's hope the rain keeps away and we will be back tomorrow.

Luv,

Daisy.

That's Better!

Hi Woofers!

Daisy Dog here again.

Well, today has been good, little or no wind and an almost cloudless sky!

I love it when the sea is smooth, all sort of dreamy and calm.

Now, when you add water with no wind and coming up to high tide........Time for a swim!


I managed to escape from Old Two Legs and before he could stop me.........I got a deep paddle!

It didn't stop there 'cos I managed to get a couple more dips and I even got a roll on the sandy beach!

I'm looking forward to going on holiday and getting a swim on Calgary Beach, all sand!

Lunchtime we came across the pile of hair that got pulled from my mates the huskies, a bit of a mess!

 One of the good things about husky hair is that it is good for lining bird nests!

Just over half way around the walk we come to a bench and table which is great for having a small rest. OTL likes to try and take a photo of m e and most of the time I manage to turn away but today I was a little slow!

While we were sitting there, taking in the sunshine, OTL saw a fox come out of the bushes. She stopped, looked at OTL but as soon as he raised his camera she turned around and ran back to the bushes!

She managed to get away quicker than I could get up, maybe next time!

Still no sign of the squirrels, I reckon they must be hiding in the trees.

See you tomorrow.

Luv,

Daisy Dog.

Where has the sun gone?

High Woofers!

Daisy here.

What has happened to the weather? a few days ago it was all sunshine and balmy breezes but of late it has been gales and rain!

I've always thought that it was 'Flaming June' where we all head for shadows to escape the heat!

The only thing flaming is the meat in the kebab shop!

Looking towards Sheerness it is just the same except the kebab shop is shut today!

We were joined by the gang of hooligans who were chasing a ball that kept on bouncing into the mud!

Old Two Legs got a cuddle from the Yorkie but was ignored by all the others, maybe because they can't chase OTL into the mud!

It was on the lunchtime walk that I had a little roll in the sea weed but to be honest, it really wasn't wet enough and I didn't even get told off!

 I'm sure it was a squirrel or maybe it was a rat! 
 
In the forest I often see things rushing about but it's only out of the corner of my eye. I can normally catch the birds but there are mice and rats and of course squirrels.

There was a time when I saw a weasel, well, I thought it was a weasel 'cos of the colouring but I haven't seen it for a year or two.

OTL has been busy today. He has notified his regular customers we are off on holiday in a couple of weeks and they have responded by placing orders!

See you all tomorrow and claws crossed we get some sunshine!

 

Bye for now.

 

Luv,

 

Daisy.

A day of Street Parties!

Hi Woofers!

It's Daisy here again.

What a day! We've been watching the parade on the television, loads of fun. After the armed forces came a load stars and people representing all walks of life.

The only thing missing were some woofers!

I mean, without woofers where would you be!

I decided to do my own march up and down the sea front!

Come on, quick march, left right, left right.

I must admit, after a little while even I got bored!
 
It would better if the tide was in!

On our way back OTL took some pictures of a street party in the next village. The only problem was, the road was closed and we had to go the long way around!

Sundays will never be the same, unless we do it next year!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy
