Blue Skys and Sunshine!

Hello Woofers!

Daisy & Holly here.


It was a little chilly this morning as we went on our walk by the Sea Wall, but after a really good chase of the rabbits, there were loads of them, we soon warmed up and had some fun running on the shingle chasing the Wheatear and Pied Wagtail birds!

It was a naughty thing to do 'cos Old Two Legs was trying to take a picture of them at the time!

We must have had a bit of rough weather out to sea 'cos today there was loads of seaweed type stuff at the high water mark, it didn't smell all that interesting and was sort of light and wispy.

So OTL just had to take a picture!

High Tide Mark

Holly and me were running along the wall and diving off for a sniff in the grass. We didn't see OTL get ahead of us and hide down on the beach, so when we realised he was missing we rushed after him, only to see him pop up and run off a couple of shots, sneaky OTL!

Holly Full Stink and Flying!

We saw that Little Egret again and this time he was having lunch.

Lunch Time!

 There were the Fishermen out on the mud looking for their worms, but Holly found where they started from and asked why the footprints wobbled.

Maybe they have been at OTL's whisky or maybe it was the shortbread?

Wobbly Fishermen

OTL had to go to the carriers, so that was a good excuse to go to the New Park.

We had a good run around and we saw a couple of dogs with flashing lights on their collars and OTL saw them as well and thought it would be a good idea for us to have them so the rabbits get a chance to see us in the dark!

Now that's just not fair!

Back with you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy & Holly

It's Sunday so it's Anti Flea Day!

Hello Woofers!

Daisy & Holly back again!

Did we have some fun last night, we watched the Harry Potter DVD's and mugged OLD Two Legs for his shortbread then we brought the biscuit bowl onto the sofa and watched the films while having a nibble from the bowl.

Even Holly said she felt a little 'Blown Up'!

So it was a little later than normal that we went off to our beds and it was a little later this morning that we asked OTL to let us out for a wee. Of course, as soon as that was finished it was straight up to get the best spot on the bed before OTL got back into bed!

It was not long before we heard some one messing about with the front door, so we gave a little grumble, then a woof and after that, a 'Serious Woof', then it was 'WOOFIN CHARGE! as we flew down the stairs snarling and woofing, ready to defend our house from intruders. The door opened for us to see The Missus arriving back from baby sitting.

We gave her a big puppy 'Hello!' and a good 'Glad To See You' lick.

Then we rushed off to OTL for another snooze, before he got up and went for his shower!

Holly and me are glad we don't have to bathe as much as these Two Leg do but, I suppose it's because they get so smelly each day!

OTL took us to the Sea Wall for our morning walk and the tide was just going out, so there were loads of birds digging in the mud for their breakfast and we saw a fisherman going off with his fork and bucket to look for his worms as well!

Breakfast is Served!

Hey, this morning, the Advent Calender contained a bone biscuit, not very tasty but Holly and I had fun picking it up in our mouth and throwing it at each other, that was until OTL took it away!

It was then that he decided that we should have our monthly anti flea stuff. Now I know that I would not like to have fleas, what ever they are, but the stuff OTL puts on our back smells horrid! No wonder the fleas don't come near us!

OTL had a shock. TM walked into the office with her laptop and said that the screen had gone 'wobbly'!

Wobbly? She had mullered it! I think OTL said that the screen leaking like that was poison so we had better leave it alone.

That put TM in a mood, so, instead of going out for an adventure, we went off to the computer shop. OTL was not a happy puppy 'cos he fancied a run around the New Park and instead he got to run around the computer shop!

Best of all was when he came back, all sort of washed out and ashen looking, we told him we just had to go into the Doggy Shop!

We got some rawhide chews and a collar for Holly and some chicken fillets and some Jumbone chews and OTL got to pay!

So, no more runs out his afternoon 'cos OTL has been playing with the new computer getting email and Internet and networking TM's computer!

Poor Old Two Legs, he doesn't even have time to have a whisky and try to keep us away from the shortbread!

Never mind, at least we won't get any fleas!

Bye bye for now.

Luv,

Daisy & Holly

Sleepy Saturday?

Hi Woofers!

Daisy & Holly here with you again!

Today we have been sort of seriously lazy. We over slept this morning, didn't get up until seven thirty! We wandered out to the garden, found it was raining and went back to bed!

A run around The Football Field a little later, with The Missus,  didn't really help to wake us up. I had a chase of the ball but had no real heart in it and Holly, she just sat down and watched the world go by!

Back home for a brush and a nibble of chicken was followed by a 'snoozette' with Old Two Legs in his office. Holly decided to stay downstairs and stretch out on the sofa and sleep under TM's jacket!

Do we have it made or wot!

Lunch time OTL took us to he Sea Wall but this time we didn't see anyone collecting sea weed, however, we did see three Ringed Plovers on the wave breakers, normally they are well out on the mud flats.

Three Ringed Plovers.

A bit further on we saw a Little Egret, pity it wasn't the Great White Egret, but you can't win them all!

Another Little Egret!

Holly found a stick, so we played 'Grab' and first Holly had the stick, then I got it, then Holly and finally, we broke it and no one had it!

My Stick!

TM is out baby sitting tonight, so OTL is getting the whisky out and the shortbread! We're in for a good night tonight especially as we have got the last Harry Potter DVD so we're watching that as well, providing it's not too scary, 'cos OTL hides under the cushion when it gets too dark and scary and then we got to give him a cuddle and hold his paw!

What baby!

See you tomrrow, but not too early, we want a lie in tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy & Holly

It's Friday Already!

Hi Woofers!

Daisy & Holly here again.

We woke up this morning to a chilly feel in the air, it was a lovely sunrise and a clear blue sky. A good reason to get back to a nice warm bed!

Old Two Legs took us down to the Sea Wall where we chased three rabbits across the grass and down the holes! It was good fun catching them above ground so early in he morning, we reckon they have been out partying the night away and were late in getting home!

We saw a Goldcrest in the tree twittering away, so OTL took this photo, not brilliant but OK, did you now that it is the smallest bird in Europe?

Goldcrest with Attitude!

Holly took up here place on the Sea Wall and said she was keeping an eye out for Pirates, but she didn't see any, just a load of sea birds feeding on the mud! OTL took a picture using the Black & White setting in the camera but as Holly says, 'We're Black & White already!'

A Black & White dog in Black & White!

So, OTL got closer and took another, in colour, just when Holly was saying she looked good in this pose.

Looking Good?

I said that it was a case of a Poser showing how big her 'Butt' is!

That's when the fight started!

It didn't last long 'cos we saw a Spaniel coming along the wall, so we stopped and had a real good look. OTL said we had a 'Twinkle' in our eyes!

Puppies with a Twinkle!

Well, you've got to put up a good front when another dog comes along, you know, 'You mess with me and you mess with my sister as well!'

That normally sorts them out!

We also saw a man picking bits of sea weed off the breakwater. OTL was curious to know what he was doing. So, OTL being OTL asked him! It seems he is from the Natural History Museum and was doing a survey on what sort of sea weed was around the coast. Well, we could have told him that if he asked us in the first place!

Its the Green Sea Weed!

Sea Weed Sampling!

This afternoon we went to see The Boys and Ethan & Finley and load of other people. Best of all we got to have some freshly cooked chicken!

And, we also managed to mug some tit bits from the table, sneaky or what!

Back home again and now we are going to have a 'before bed snoozette', just to wind down a little!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy & Holly

Wet, Wet, Wet!

Hello Woofers!

Daisy & Holly here!

What a terrible wet day it has been today. It started off first thing this morning. Down we went with The Missus for our early morning wee in the garden and as soon as she opened the door I stuck my nose and two front paws outside.

Yuk!

It was raining, so, I stopped and was trying to decide if I wanted to go and further.

Walking behind me was Holly, still half asleep, her eyes closed and just following me. Trouble was, she didn't see me stop and she kept walking, well, ambling really!

She finally stopped when her nose met the bit of me where my tail joins my body! Hurumph! She went and barged past me grumbling. Some thing about stopping too quickly and having no brake lights if you please!

When she got outside she also suddenly stopped, went 'Hurumph!' again, turned around and came back into the kitchen.

We don't do rain!

Well, that was it, back to cuddle OTL and wait for the rain to stop! That was the idea until OTL called us for a walk and using the car, off we went to the Sea Wall!

The long and short of it all was, we got soaking wet, from the tip of our nose to the end of our tails! It was a good job OTL had one of our special doggy towels in the car, even so, we still needed a final rub down when we got back home. That was just before our Chicken and Biscuit Breakfast, followed by our normal 'After Breakfast Snoozette'!

Lunch time was fun, OTL tried to sneak out without telling us, just how silly can he be! We are Guard Dogs and that is guarding against anyone getting in AND anyone getting out without permission!

Off we went and landed in the New Park again, having a run around the back of the trees plus staying away from B B Badgers Hole!

No Badgers Here!

We stopped by the Training Area and blew some raspberries at a couple of dogs who were being taught to 'Sit'. Holly can do a really big raspberry when she wants and she did one today!

Both of the dogs went potty and were woofing at us but as they couldn't get over the fence, we felt safe, so we blew some more raspberries.

Their owner came over and asked OTL if he would take us away 'cos we were upsetting their dogs!

OTL said they were a couple of big soppy dogs and we should leave them alone, so we trotted off, around the corner and from behind the bush we did our really BIG WOOF and blew some more raspberries, then ran away to OTL like we knew nothing of what just happened!

On our way back to the car, I didn't feel like running through the wet grass, so I stood on top of the stone circle while Holly and OTL went to open up the car.

OTL looked back at me and called me, then he whistled for me to come.

None of which I took any notice of at all!

So OTL had to walk back and sat down next to me and asked what I wanted?

I climbed onto his lap and said 'Carry Me' and he did, on his shoulder, all the way back to the car!

It's not often you get to see the New Park from that height, unless your OTL!

This evening we have got chicken again, so we're looking forward to that and maybe we will get to mug OTL for a bit of his dinner, if we're lucky!

Also, we get to open the first door of our Advent Calendar, it was a Chocy Doggy Biscuit!

Bye bye for now and see you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy & Holly

 

December Tomorrow!

Hi Woofers!

It's Daisy & Holly back with you again!

It has been a warmish type of day today, we were out early with The Missus across The Fields and the weather seemed quite balmy!

Back for breakfast and a brush before our 'After Breakfast Snoozette', only problem was, Old Two Legs was bashing about all over the place.

He had some orders to get manufactured and was getting into a right state what with all the wire and stuff.

Then, having finished that he was crashing and bashing about in all the cupboards and drawers looking for his Remote Shutter Release!

It appears that he has lost this vital piece of equipment and can't take pictures of fungi and insects and other beautiful stuff, like us!

So, poor old thing will have to buy another one!

We went with OTL to the carriers and afterwards guided him to the New Park. We went on a long route march all over the park, keeping off the made up paths and sticking to the grass paths amongst the trees and bushes.

At one spot we saw a big cave where OTL said that a 'Big Bad Badger' lived and at night he would come out and chase the horses in the fields!

Badgers Place

We didn't hang about!

 OTL said he liked the plant life and the way the sun shone on the young trees, so he took another picture!

Afternoon Sun.

OTL took some pictures and even found a couple of mangy looking fungi that were past their 'sell by' date!

 So he didn't take their picture!

Instead of going around in a big loop as we normally do, OTL crossed the 'Green Lane' and we we crossed the field and suddenly we were in The Forest!

What! This is a seriously long walk! I did notice that OTL was looking around the sites he was photographing fungi, but he didn't find his gizmo thingy.

No Shutter Release Gizmo Here!

We went by the 'Dog Training Area' and OTL said that as it wasn't being used, we could go in and he would teach us how to behave.

Well, we couldn't stop laughing, us, doing all that Stand, Sit, Come By, Away, and best of all 'Stay'!

We told OTL what he could do with all that rubbish!

Don't make us laugh, it hurts so much!

By the time we got back to the car we were worn out little puppies and you could tell that 'cos we slept all the way back home!

Tonight's dinner was Chicken, but we did notice that OTL has got one of TM's home made curries. OTL loves them and we get to have a small bit of Nan Bread dipped into the curry juice, just as a treat, mmmm! Super!

Hey, Tomorrow is December, so that means it is not long until Christmas and you know what that means?

Yes! A whooping great big Turkey and loads of turkey dinners for us! Holly says that we will also get other special stuff like Christmas Pud and Rawhide Chews and Doggy Treats and stuff like that.

Now TM has made us an Advent Calender and behind every door is a treat! We sneaked a sniff the other night when they were asleep and worked out that there is a small biscuit behind every door. Not the most exciting thing to offer a cute puppy like wot we are, but it's better than nothing!

At least we got an Advent Calender!

See you tomorrow, we're off to mug some shortbread from OTL!

Luv,

Daisy & Holly

We're in Trouble Again!

Yo Ho Woofers!

Daisy & Holly back again!

While we think of it, Max, pay attention, your paws are for digging holes, the other end is for attaching your tail to!

Not so cold this morning but it has been raining over night. We found out when I fancied a wee, around one thirty this morning. I jumped up and woofed at The Missus with our 'I Wanna Wee' woof.

Good old TM, she gets up and staggers down stairs, all grumbly and mumbling under her breath, then she opened the back door for me.

Hey! What? Shock, Horror!       It's raining!

Well if the sky is having a wee on the garden then I'm not going out!

Holly just barges past and has a wee on the grass, no shame that dog!

I turn around and go back to bed, I'll hang on 'till the morning thanks!

TM goes back to bed, all grumbly, that means we're in trouble again!

Old Two Legs slept all the way through it all!

After our 'early morning run' over The Fields we got back to a Lambs Heart Breakfast and Biscuits, one of our most favourite breakfasts!

Lunch time we got OTL to take us to the New Park and boy was it windy! It blew our ears inside out and our fur was pointing the wrong way!

Windy or Wot!

We were not allowed to go for a paddle in the swimming hole 'cos there were some big Labrador dogs splashing about and we didn't have our ball with us either, so we stayed good and dry!

Watching the Watchers!

We said 'Hello' to The Watchers and an old Alsatian who was passing by, but most of all we just tried beating each other up!



When we got home, Holly decided to wrap up in TM jumper thingy which was good and warm and smelt sort of comforting!

In Our Place, Warm and Safe

I just sat on the blanket!

OTL was busy for the rest of the afternoon, so we enjoyed some TV and a gentle snooze!

Dinner is almost ready, Chicken & Biscuits by the smell of it, followed by a bit of shortbread mugged from OTL!

See you tomorrow.

Luv,

Daisy & Holly

Frosty or What!

Hi Woofers!

Daisy and Holly here.

We have been doing our job (Guarding) all last night. We did our normal hourly inspection of the perimeters, keeping an eye open for possible intruders. It is a little difficult to keep in step marching up and down the stairs, so we call out numbers to help, you know, hup, two, three, four, Hup! Two, Three, Four and so on.

Holly gets all Sargent Major when we need to stop and turn around. 'Puppy Patrol, Halt! About Face, Turn! One, Two, Three, Four. Forward March, Hup, Two, Three, Four!

It's great fun but sometimes it wakes The Missus up and she has a little grumble to Old Two Legs about 'They're at it Again!'

OTL just turns over and continues sleeping, he knows the security is in good paws!

TM was up early, playing about with her cards and the glue pot, so we stopped the Guarding and went back to bed, until TM called us for our morning walk. You know, it was frosty on the cars this morning, it's the first time we've seen that this autumn, Brrrrrr, winter is on it's way!

The fields were all white with frost and the ground was a little cold on our pads but at least the mud didn't stick to our fur!

It had warmed up a little by the time we went out at lunch time, to the Sea Wall, and we nearly had a rabbit by the tail, but he just got down the rabbit hole before I could grab him. It's the closest I got in a long time!

Holly spotted a Monster swimming just off shore, it was bobbing up and down and Holly reckons it was growling as well!

OTL took a photo and when we zoomed in, we saw it was an old log!

A Real Log & Roll Monster!

Late this afternoon we decided that it was time for a run down the New Park, so a little bullying and a customer who needed shipment today meant that we got OTL moving and a run in the park, in the dark!

Now, a run at night is no bother to us bold puppies and we know just what to do, stick close to OTL!

This time we tried to be big and brave!

Along the path we saw, coming in our direction, was a flashing red light, walking slowly and stopping every so often. Holly started to grumble, then I joined in and we both had a good grumble. The light still kept coming in our direction

I started to walk towards OTL but Holly just stood there, 'Dopey Dog', I thought, what happens if it is a monster?

OTL was calling us, Holly stayed there woofing at the flashing red light, I decided to get OTL between me and the flashing light.

I reckon I'm big and brave, but not stupid!

Holly was woofing big time by now, and even had her tail sticking up straight, (That is 'Serious Holly').

Then out of the dark walked this big Old Labrador with his tongue hanging out and a silly grin on his face!

'Hello Girls!' he said ' Shall I show you the way out?'

Holly laughed, I laughed and OTL laughed and the man holding the dog lead laughed as well!

OTL says that is a good idea to have a light on us at night and said he might get us a bicycle lamp to hang on our collars and a red hurricane light tied to our tails when we go out at night!

Holly and I were not amused!

Bye bye for now!

Luv,

Daisy & Holly

Hunting the Great White Egret!

Hello Woofers!

Daisy & Holly back with you again.

We have been playing the Big Hunters today!

If you remember, Old Two Legs said that we were going to get up early and go off hunting the Great White Egret, we didn't get in until late last night, so, we had a little bit of a lay in and didn't get going until mid morning!

First of all we started with our normal run down on the Sea Wall which was OK 'cos it allowed us some time to hunt a rabbit or two! Then, OTL pointed out a 'Little Egret' flying past, just to show us what an Egret looked like.

This is a Little Egret!

Yes, Holly did ask the question!

As the sun was low in the sky, OTL was playing about with some 'into the sun' type of photos that were half way to a silhouette, but not quite, if you know what I mean!

Sheerness Docks

 The Puff Ball had still not got ready to 'Puff' so we left it alone and went home for some breakfast.

That gave OTL time to load the car up with all the photo gear and our bed and our chews and our water bowl full of clean water. Then we were ready to go.

Off we went to Oare, near Faversham, 'cos OTL had read on the Internet that the Great White Egret had been seen down there for the last two days. So, there was a good chance that it would still be hanging about.

OTL had to keep us on our lead as we walked all the way around the reserve because of all those 'Anti Dog' notices. I wish they would put up some 'Anti People' notices about all the paper and junk they leave on the ground!

We did our 'Sneaking Around' hunting bit, sniffing the air and sniffing at the reeds. Then looking carefully at the islands where there was a Little Egret having a snooze, but no Great White Egret!

OTL said that it was possible that the bird had gone over to Elmley RSPB site on the Isle of Sheppy, so off we went!

When we got there we remembered it was one of those 'No Dogs' sites, so we crept slowly along in the car looking out the windows. We saw Lapwings, Swans, Starlings, Redwings, Marsh Harrier and Curlew, but no Great White Egret!

Holly and I were having fun woofing at the cows by the side of the road, that was until OTL wound down the window and stopped next to a big cow who looked at us as said 'YES?'

YES?

 We didn't woof, but I did have a little growl and went back to sit next to OTL!

Disappointed, we headed back home, until we got near the Riverside Park, we could sniff it on the air, so we jumped up and down and told OTL to pull in 'cos we wanted a wee!

In we went but OTL could not find a place to park! Holly and me were distraught! We both whimpered and gave OTL a seriously sad look, then we sat down and showed off a bit. Collapsing down and pretending we were crying!

OTL said he was sorry and told us we can go to the Sea Wall before going home. Which wasn't too bad really, even if we did have to wait a bit longer!

Back home again, just in time to see the F1 racing, Jenson came third but Lewis had to stop when his car broke.

So, dinner here we come, and then maybe an early night, just to catch up with last night!

Bye bye for now.

Luv,

Daisy & Holly (Stopped Showing Off Now)

F1 Qualifying and OTL's Bacon & Mushroom Baguette

Hi Woofers!

Daisy and Holly again!

What a Super Saturday! We were out with The Missus first thing for a run around The Fields, chasing each other 'cos there are no rabbits on these fields, foxes and pigeons and other doggies, but no rabbits!

It really was a little boring going around The Field, especially after our runs down at the Sea Wall, so, later this morning we had a word with OTL and let him know where we want to go next!

We got back home and had a super 'Chicken & Biscuit Breakfast', freshly cooked!

Then up to Old Two Legs office for our  'after breakfast snoozette' while OTL played around on the computer!

Our run along the Sea Wall was a bit of fun 'cos we went a different way around the bushes and there was loads of rabbit sniffs to be had and Holly said she could smell a fox as well!

I sort of half believed that 'cos I had seen a fox by the side of the road on the way down and both Holly and me had woofed at it, not that it took any notice 'cos we were in the car and the fox was creeping along the hedgerow!

When we got down to the Sea Wall the tide was right in and almost covering the Dragons Teeth, so no climbing for me!

Dragons Teeth!

Holly said that the sea was making funny gurgling sounds but it was really the sea bashing into a big pipe, so I told her it was a Sea Monster who was going to at her!

Here be Monsters!

Holly worked out what it was in the end and that's when the punch up started!


OTL found a Puff Ball fungi and was having a close look, trouble was, it was not ready to go 'Puff'

It was a 'Ball' but not old enough to go 'Puff' yet, so we will come back tomorrow and see what has happened.

It was growing by the side of the pathway and we think it may get kicked or trodden on, which will be a pity 'cos OTL really wants a Puff Ball photo!

All Ball & No Puff!

 The F1 Qualifying was fun and Button got third position on the grid for tomorrow, so, fingers crossed for some fun!

While we were watching the F1 Qualifying, OTL had a couple of Bacon & Mushroom rolls, well, he started off with two but Holly and me helped him a little bit.

He is so easy to mug!

I'm off to bed now 'cos we have got to be up early in the morning as OTL wants to go and photograph a Great White Egret at Faversham, so claws crossed for some good weather tomorrow.


Hello to Max, good to see you got another key board, or did they just run the other one under the tap!

Bye for now.

Lu,

Daisy & Holly (Monster Muncher!)
