Wot a Horrid Day Today!

Hello Woofers!

Daisy & Holly back with you again!

We got up good and early this morning and it was because the wind was blowing the trees about!

The Missus was out baby sitting, so we went out with Old Two Legs for a run on the Sea Wall. We jumped from the car, as we normally do, only to get blown back again! So, OTL opened the other door and we jumped out and carefully moved around the side of the car, out of the way of the wind.

Now, it wasn't really raining but there was a lot of spray being blown about, so it felt like hard rain drops hitting us!

Not nice!

OTL shut the doors before we could change our mind and get back in the car and off we went for a run. It took just a couple of minutes for us to decide that out in the wind was where we did not want to be!

I'd rather be back home!

A quick word with OTL and it was not too long before we were back in the car having a rub down with the towel!

OTL had a load of stuff to do and we went with him to deliver and pick up things.
We had another run out around midday but the wind was still strong but the rain had stopped.

Back home we had another rub down and retired to the office for a snooze after we had finished off our Lambs Heart breakfast.

We will be glad when this day is over, we don't mind fresh air or a gentle breeze but a howling gale is the best reason for staying indoors and playing 'Chase' around the house!

Let's hope that tomorrow is a little better!

We've just seen TM putting a pack of shortbread into the kitchen cupboard, so we might be in luck tonight!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy & Holly

Another Days Holiday!

Hello Woofers!

Daisy & Holly here!

We had some fun last night, around three thirty we jumped up onto Old Two Legs bed and gave him a 'Wake Up' lick, then jumped off the bed. He knows what that is, it's the 'We Wanna Wee' signal. We know it is a waste of time doing it to The Missus 'cos by the time she has woken up and got down stairs, we might have had an accident!


Poor OTL, he gets all the good jobs! Still we let him sleep in until nine before he got the old 'Cold nose and Wet Lick' treatment again!

He didn't even have time for his breakfast before taking us out!

First of all Holly tried flying again. I am sure she must know by now that she has just got to loose a few kilos before she can get airborne!

Nose Wheels Up!

 We had a good run down the Sea Wall and Holly was getting a bit ratty about not flying. In fact, she even stopped at a Two Legs who she thought was laughing at her and gave her the old 'Hairy Eyeball'!

You Looking At Me?

Just to make her feel better I suggested we go hunting sniffs on the beach, which was OK to begin with. Then we got into a bit of shoulder shoving at a particularly interesting sniff.

Shove Off, This is My Sniff!

Well, after that first shove, it was only a few seconds before another fight started!

Another Fight!

OTL told us off for fighting and threatened to put us on the lead if we didn't behave, fat chance, he has got to catch us first!

But we did go and have a sniff around the grass bank and even stopped to let OTL explain all about modern Cave Art and to prove a point he took this picture that not only shows the 'Cave Art' but also a bit of a Power Station!

Modern Cave Art!

Really, we thought it was a bit boring, but we have got to keep him happy and look like we're interested!

Then along the beach a bit further we came to the Power Station Outflow, now, the only way I can describe it is like this. You see, the power station is doing loads of work making electricity and getting all hot while it's doing it and so, it needs a drink of water to help cool it down a bit. So, if it is like us, when we get hot, we get thirsty and have a drink of water. After the water has cooled us down, we have a wee to get rid of the water. Simple really, even a dog can understand that!

Power Station Wee!

Now, you didn't expect that did you!

OTL spotted a Black Headed Gull standing in the water looking at it's own reflection. OTL said that some birds do that and think they have a friend to talk to when all their mates have left them. We think that OTL has been getting some strange ideas of late, maybye he has been having too much whisky, or not enough!

Mirror Mirror on the Beach, who is the Prettiest Gull of All?

Holly and me reckon we are surounded with weirdo's and we are the only sensible puppies we know, except OTL, but we are not always sure about him!

Bye bye for now,

Luv,

Daisy & Holly

2012 with a Thud & a Dribble!

Hello Woofers!

Daisy And Holly here with you again.

First of all a big Happy New Year to everyone, but not so loud! You see we were up late last night, singing and dancing and having loads of nibbles and playing games of chase and Woof at the Fireworks!

So, this morning we didn't get up until nearly nine fifteen!

Both Holly and me had funny tummies and Old Two Legs looked a little out of salts as well! The Missus, who had been on the Champagne all evening looked like she was going to have a quiet day!

We finally got our morning stroll at about ten, so, the sun had got up and was tearing across the sky before we got to the Sea Wall, so no moody sunrise photos!

Too late for the Sunrise!

We did meet up with Billy and when he saw OTL had a camera, did his 'Funny Pose', which made us laugh!

Say Cheeese!

Back home it was chicken for breakfast followed by a snooze on the sofa while OTL was messing about with the computer.

A Big Hello to Max, we thought you has got lost! Have you got rid of that virus thingy in the computer? Nasty things they are, OTL is always looking for them!

We went out this afternoon for a walk, as you do, but we thought it was a bit strange that OTL got our snow coats out.

Snow Coats?

Snow?

No, it was rain, too much to be going out without a coat on!

Mind you, when we got out there on the Sea Wall, it seemed to be raining more than when we left home!

Holly was not too pleased with walking in the rain and kept complaining about going back. OTL was not listening and took us on the 'Full Walk' as normal, he said he needed the exercise as much as we do, in fact more!

Holly was still bitching even when we had turned around and was heading back to the car, she said that the rain was dribbling down the back of her neck!

I made sure I was warm on the way back, I sat on OTL's lap and made sure my bottom was warm and dry!

Back indoors it was a good towel down and a snooze on the sofa again until diner time!

What a way to end the holidays!

Back to work tomorrow, well, for OTL anyway!

Look on the bright side there is only three hundred and fifty five shopping days until next Christmas!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy & Holly (All warm and dry and with full tummies!)

The Last Day!

Hello Woofers!

Daisy & Holly here!

Did you know that today is the last day of the year? Now, does that mean that tomorrow we will all be one year older?

It sounds a bit 'Technical' as Old Two Legs would say. As long as we get our walks and meals we will leave that all to you lot!

Holly is still trying to get up into the air. This morning she ran all along the wall and kept jumping into the air but failed to take off!

That was until she fell off the wall, onto the beach. I suppose that was technically flying, but I didn't tell her that!

Getting up to Take Off Speed!

One day she will take off, but will she be able to land properly?

She soon forgot the flying lessons when we met up with Elmo again, he's the same age as us and enjoys a good run around and we had a good chase up and down the path.

Yo Elmo!

We showed him the new rabbit holes we had found and also a couple of rat holes!

On our way back we met up with a poodle called Mac, he had a thing about hats, according to his owners but we told him that OTL's hat was really part of his head and not to be worried!

That seemed to work and he ended up giving OTL a lick on the nose!

Is that a Hat?

Tonight, OTL is going to have a drink of his whisky to 'see the Old Year Out', I reckon that he will have some more just to see the New Year In!

We're going to help him with the shortbread!

So, we will be late going to bed and I think we will all be getting up a bit later tomorrow morning!

So bye bye for now and from Holly and Me,

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Luv,

Daisy & Holly

Fox Holes and a Flying Holly!

Hi Woofers!

Daisy & Holly here again!



It's been a bit gloomy today, the weather has even turned a little colder than yesterday. That doesn't worry us in the slightest, a good run along the Sea Wall and we are warmed up and ready to go!

Toad Hall from Grain Sea Wall

Old Two Legs pointed out that a building over in Sheerness Docks was called Toad Hall, we thought that was a funny name for a building.

We were snuffling along the path when we heard a woofing from up on the hill. So, Holly and I stood there looking for the woofer, it wasn't long before this long  haired Labrador walked past us without even a look. Not very polite!

So, who is the new Woofer?

I didn't think that was the right thing to do, so, I rushed up to the top of the hill and woofed at the doggy, nothing! Didn't even turn around to see who woofed!

That's it, I will mark that dog in the 'Rude Book' and it will take some good manners to get out of there!

Holly decided she was going to have a go at flying, just like me. So, she ran at full speed down the hill and jumped. It was no good, she just couldn't get into the air. She did however have some fun when Barney came bounding down the hill and said he wanted a game of 'chase'. Holly did her side step trick and poor old Barney got all out of shape again!

Barney getting out of shape again!

Back home we had some more chicken and biscuits followed by a snooze. OTL went back to working on the computer and we went back to sleep.!


That was until my body clock woke me up saying 'Time for Walkies'!

It didn't take too long to get OTL dressed up in his coat and his boots on, off we went, woofing all the way to the car. Next stop The Farm!

Holly and her Fox Holes.

Before long we were charging around the woods looking for squirrels or rabbits or even badgers!

Holly found these two holes next to each other and said that it must be a semi detached fox hole!

We had a good sniff around but there was no sign of a fox.

I went off hunting on my own and found my own fox hole that smelt like it was in use, so, I woofed a few times but the fox stayed in bed!

I smell Foxy!

It was great fun in the woods, so many sniffs! OTL found his mystery plant again but this time he found a big one next to it, but although it had seeds and flowers on it, he still doesn't know what it is!

We will have to wait until the spring to see what happens!

But What is it?

Holly spotted some trees that had been cut down and guess what we saw in one of the logs?

It's Alfie the Elf!

You just never know what you will find in these woods!

Back home for dinner and a cuddle with OTL and the last of his shortbread!

Bye bye for now and see you tomorrow.

Luv,

Daisy & Holly

Snoozy and Another Fight!

Yo Ho Woofers!

Daisy & Holly here again and getting into trouble, as normal!

We were woken up by Old Two Legs snoring this morning, at first we thought it was a monster trying to tear the house down. The room shook, the windows rattled and our water bowl vibrated so much, half the water sloshed over the floor!

We managed to stop him, a cold wet nose in the ear always does the trick!


As we went out this morning in the car, we saw a Pussy Cat crossing the road, well, OTL had never heard such a Woofing and Grumbling from inside the car, we were on top volume and running from front to back of the car as well!

Great Fun!

When we got to the Sea Wall we found the tide was out, so, that means the Wormy Men are out.

So we woofed a 'Hello' but as normal they just kept on digging!

There goes The Wormy Man!

We did get to go a bit further along the Sea Wall today, so that meant new sniffs and new things to see.

Holly found the power station water outlet and woofed at some birds behind the railings. Just as OTL was trying to take a photo of them!

No Rabbits, just Birds!

Mind you, we did find some new Rabbit Holes and spent some time investigating them for future use! You know, what is the best way to sneak up on them and where can we hide before jumping out and woofing BOO!

New Rabbit Holes!

Now it's OK sorting out the Rabbit Holes and doing all this planning, but, when you are deep in 'Planning Mode' and checking out the normal way the rabbit hole is placed against the hill, the last thing you want is your sister coming along and poking her nose in!

She just would not leave the hole alone, sticking her nose where it was not wanted, taking over the planning and even having a wee close to the hole so she could claim it was hers! Well, I wasn't having any of that and told her just where she could get off! With that she got all possessive and said that the hole was hers 'cos she saw it on the way down there and had marked it beforehand. I got all upset and called her a Hole Snaffler, she accused me of being Domineering and a Proper Madam''

As you might have guessed by now.

That's when The Fight started!

 
It took OTL to come between us and warned that we would get no more nibbles if we carried on fighting. So we just walked together back to the car, shoving each other every so often when OTL wasn't looking!

It's fun being a Puppy!

When we got home we were both tired puppies and crashed out for most of the afternoon cuddling our rawhide chew.

That was until diner time, chicken and biscuits and some of OTL's beef burger!

Bye for now and see you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy & Holly

ND Filter and a Smelly Nelly!

Hello Woofers!

Daisy & Holly we're back again!

The Missus has been having a good/bad day. You see, she has not been doing the washing or ironing for some time, because of Christmas and all that.

Today she finally found out that she enough clothes for just two days, so, the washing machine and ironing board have been working today. That normally means it is a 'Bad Day'.

However, between the washing and ironing, she has been card making. That means it is a 'Good Day'.

So, she has been all Smiles and Grumbles today.

Old Two Legs has learnt to keep his head down when she gets the Grumbles and tries to time our walks when the Grumbles arrive and he comes home when the Smiles come out!

We don't mind really, Grumbles mean an extra bit of walking!

OTL took a picture of Holly 'On a Mission' as she ran along the wall, little did he know that she was following a real fishy sniff!

Holly on a Mission!

Holly went running up the path and before OTL could do anything, she was rolling around on the grass getting all super smelly!

When OTL finally got to her it was obvious that she was now a real Smelly Nelly, in fact even I couldn't walk next to her!

I made her walk on the path while I walked along the wall!

Fresh air on top of the Wall!

When we got back home, Holly had to have a wash down, just to get rid of the Smell!

Holly is not really into washing, I mean, she only puts up with brushing 'cos she gets a Choccy Drop afterwards!

Our afternoon walk was just as TM got the ironing board out, so that was a close thing!

This time OTL made sure Holly stayed away from the Fishy Smell and left us to have a game on the beach.

He was playing around with his ND Filter Thingy by resting the camera on one of the wooden posts.

30 sec at f/11 10 stop ND filter.

Now, allowing for the fact that the sea was almost dead calm, the effect is to make it sort of 'Milky' looking. This picture didn't set the world alight so he tried one of the Sea Wall like he did before.

30 sec f/10 10 stop ND Filter

This one would be OK except for the two 'Ghosts' up near the steps, they stopped for a short while before walking off again!

Holly says she wants to try standing still for a little while, then moving and then stopping and then moving so it looks like there are loads of Hollies along the wall!

I said that was a bit daft and she said I was a 'Whimp' so I called her 'Show Off'.......and that's when the fight started!

Off we ran down the Sea Wall and we were going so fast that we nearly ran over a Rook that was sitting in the middle of the path!

Scary Crow!

OTL has got a curry tonight, so, with a little bit of luck we may get a taste of Nan Bread dipped into the gravy!

See you tomorrow, and no, he has not finished tidying his room yet!

Luv,

Daisy & Holly

Gloomy Day Outside!

Hello Woofers,

It's us, Daisy & Holly, back again!

Something amazing is happening here, Old Two Legs is clearing up his office/workshop! He says he does it every year around Christmas time, whether it needs it or not! He has been at it all day and so far has done one wall end, the desk and the floor!

It is not that he has thrown much away but he has moved it along the next wall to clear up tomorrow!

Still, as normal we took him away from all that terrible work and let him walk us up and down the Sea Wall!

There was a Shore Lark reported on the Internet as being down on the Sea Wall, near the Power Station and we found it! OTL was too far away to get a good shot of it, so we ran up to the bird to ask it to come closer.

It flew off!

OTL was not a Happy Puppy!

Holly made a new friend, a Spaniel, in fact what happened was Holly was climbing the stairs and the Spaniel was going to jump over the wall and they met, nose to nose.

All together Aah!

Do you come here often?

OTL was still mumbling about the Shore Lark as we got near to the car park. Holly spotted a Little Egret on the beach and told OTL, so, creeping up on it, he put the camera to his eye and.........the bird flew off!

It's That Bird again!

So, again OTL was not a Happy Puppy!

Back home he was bashing around, so we stayed out of the office, The Missus was a better bet, even if she was splashing the old glue pot around!

Poor old OTL, he was making such a noise with the vacuum cleaner and taking so much rubbish out, we almost felt sorry for him!

Later on, on our second walk of the day, the tide was right in. We had never seen it so far in before. OTL was messing about with the camera again and tried some slow shutter speed shots, but he should had brought along his ND filters, (Technical Glass Things) 'cos he couldn't get a slow enough shutter speed to get a milky look to the water.

Again, OTL was not a Happy Puppy!

In need of an ND Filter!

It was not OTL's day today, the weather was gloomy and so was he, but, the best was yet to come!

Before we eat our evening meal, we like to play a game called 'Mugging OTL'.

When OTL and TM sit down to dinner, we do all we possibly can to get a nibble of whatever they are eating. You should see the tricks we try.

Head on one side and stare into their eyes. (That's a good one)

Sit with head on one side and stare into their eyes while at the same time pawing their leg. (Always get a response!)

Well this evening I worked on a new one. I did the old head on the side and even threw in a whimper as well, but best of all, I turned my nose up at a bit of ham, after licking it!

OTL was mortified, what, his little puppy refused a tasty bit of ham?

So, he dipped it into the egg yoke and offered it again, I took it this time.

Now you can guess the rest, everything else just had to be a bit eggy before we would touch it!

Absolutely super or wot!

The best bit was, after giving us bits dipped in egg yoke, there was no egg yoke left for OTL!

OTL, definitely not the Happy Puppy!

We are off now to see what damage we can do to OTL's stock of short bread, after a day of cleaning he must have something to keep him from moaning!

Nite, nite, see you tomorrow.

Luv,

Daisy & Holly ( The Eggy Girls)

Boxing Day

Hi Woofers!

Daisy & Holly here again.

We woke up this morning feeling a little tired and very full in the tummy! We had made Porky Puppies of ourselves yesterday and were making up for it this morning!

Holly was cuddling her puppy on one side and her rawhide chew on the other!

When we finally got up, Old Two Legs had been in for his shower and was getting his coat on ready for our morning walk.

We always enjoy the morning walk 'cos there is always the chance to catch a rabbit above ground if we run hard enough around the bramble bushes, but this morning it was a case of slowly amble around the corner and see nothing!

Well, we didn't mind that, I don't think we could have run if our lives depended on it!

OTL was getting all 'photographic' and took a picture of the Sea Wall which didn't turn out too bad.

Boxing Day on The Sea Wall.

Back home we had a good brush then settled down to a snooze on the sofa while The Missus did some card making with some of the presents she had been given. OTL watched some television before falling asleep as well. He had a heavy night last night as well, all that shortbread and slurping!

The midday walk was a little more lively and we met Stella who just fell in love with OTL. She came lolloping up to him and then rolled onto her back to have her tummy tickled!

What a Tart!

Holly said that she was a Tart and obviously been at the Sherry Trifle when no one was looking!

There were a couple of other doggies, but we didn't get too close to them 'cos they were on leads and they were seriously muddy!

I was enjoying a run around and at one time I am sure I was flying!

Me Flying, Super Puppy!

There I was, bragging to Holly. how well I could fly and how she could only roll along the ground when there was a fluttering near to us and a Pied Wagtail landed on the Sea Wall and said that I was only jumping and if ever I wanted a real go at flying, I had better get some wings and feathers!

Hey! Want some 'Cheep' Flying Lessons?

Show off!

Back home to another snooze before getting ready to mug OTL for some shortbread while TM finishes off today's bottle of champagne!

We hope you are all having a super Christmas, we are!

Bye bye for now.

Luv,

Daisy & Holly

Christmas Day!

Hello Woofers!

It's Daisy & Holly here again!

We were up early this morning 'cos Holly reckons she heard Santa on the roof top! So, we woofed at the noise and rushed down stairs to see what he had left for us!Trouble is, we woke Old Two Legs and The Missus up at the same time!

OTL is OK, he just sort of stumbles about crashing into things and bouncing off the walls as he goes down stairs! He always does this at three in the morning!


Well, we went down stairs and found he had left us a super big bag of goodies that we can play with or eat. We love the eating bits and I really love the toys!

Decisions, Decisions!

We also got some chews and Pink Balls from Auntie Karen (Cat People), great chews and we will have fun chasing the balls!

After about an hour of giving the chews a seeing too, we both had funny tummies, so a little relaxing snooze was called for!

I've got a funny tummy!

We helped TM to open her presents and even offered her a chew of our presents as well!

Then we stood guard at the table, just to make sure there was nothing left that we could offer our food bowl to!

No, we don't want the sprouts thank you!

After all this food, we are absolutely full to the brim and now we are off to have a snooze before going to bed, proper like!

We were going to show you a picture of us helping TM to open her presents but she said that she didn't want everyone to see her new bloomers!

Well, we didn't have our wide angle lens on the camera anyway!

We're off to bed now and taking our big chews with us, just for a nibble before going to sleep!

Bye bye for now.

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy & Holly
