Holly Injured In The Line of Duty & I get Trapped Behind The Lines!

Hello Woofers!

Stand to Attention, It's Us back again, Daisy, Holly, Snowflake and Mr Brambles!

And Wot A Day!

This morning we were out with Mr Brambles for our morning walk, it wasn't too warm but getting a bit muggy.

Off we went, no problems, sniffin' the sniffs and doing what we do!

Then it started to rain, you know, those big rain drops that really go 'Splat' and soak you with just half a dozen drops.

That was it, we all turned around and headed back towards the car, then it stopped raining. It looks like we were just on the edge of the rain storm. Mr Brambles was steaming along having a great time, then it happened.

Old Two legs called us to come and get put on the lead, I spotted a rabbit, Holly spotted the same rabbit.

We chased the rabbit!

OTL carried on towards the car 'cos he knows the best thing is to put Mr Brambles in the car and come back for us!

That's what he did.

We chased the rabbit, we chased it through the bramble bushes, through the long grass, down under the thorn bushes and away into the gorse bushes.

When OTL came back for us, we had gone, like, vanished into the woodland! OTL spent about half an hour walking all around where we normally go rabbit hunting but we were not there. Back he went to the car, just in case we had missed each other on the way, nothing. Back he came, calling and doing that whistle thing but nothing.

OTL was getting concerned.

He went to the school field where we get trapped abut he couldn't see us at all. Then he went back to the car, still no sign of us, so back he went to start all over again.

There, on the path, at the very end of the path, stood Holly. She had one rear leg lifted off the ground and she looked mucky. Just like she had been digging, which she had!

She started to limp towards OTL who immediately lifted her paw up to have a look and after a bit, found a big thorn she had stepped on and it had stuck into her paw between the pads.

Painful!

OTL got it out and checked to make sure it still had it's sharp point on the end 'cos if it hadn't, that means it would still be in Holly!

Luckily it was complete and soon she was walking on all four paws!

Back to the car she went with OTL to wait there with Mr Brambles for me to arrive.

Which I didn't.

Back went OTL, calling whistling, shouting, giving our secret call, but I couldn't get to him.

I was stuck in the school field again. I'd got through the fence chasing the rabbit but couldn't find the hole to get back!

Finally OTL looked through the metal fence and we spotted each other. I was so pleased to see him. I was imagining being stuck in there all day without anything to eat or drink!

OTL managed to lift me up over the fence and I sat on top of his hat until he pulled his arm out of the fence to grab me and put me on the ground!

Lucky or wot and it was his 'Best Hat' as well!

Back home it was a brush and check over to see if there were any nasty things on us then a bowl of lambs heart and a snooze until it was time for our afternoon walk.

Mr Brambles said that he was going to pass on this walk but Snowflake was all up for it 'cos she hasn't had a run out for a couple of days.

After two days without a run, she was all full of it and was tearing about all over the place!

You know she was even giving us a run for our money!

Out of the way Fast Flying Ferret comin' thru!

 Holly and I were kept moving all the way up the hill and normally we have at least three sniff stops!

Nah! You tell her to slow down!

When Holly finally mentioned it to Snowflake. she said it was 'cos she was thirsty and wanted a drink, so shift it an' stop moaning!

Ooo! Get You!

I'm Thirsty so Shift It! Any questions?

 At the end of the path OTL stopped to put our leads on and Snowflake legged it into a big bunch of large stinging nettles, OTL took a flying leap into the nettles to get her back and luckily she still had the lead on which got caught up on the nettle stems, so slowing her down enough for OTL to pick her up!

OTL was not a Happy Puppy!

He had nettle stings all over his arms and neck and when he got home he was covering his stings with some stuff called 'After Bite'

He sniffed like a Poo Tray that was full of stale wee!

We all suggested he have a good wash down with some soap and water!

He said he would, but only after it stopped stinging!

All is well in the end, we are all back together, safely tucked up snoozing while OTL tends his stings!

See you tomorrow, if we are allowed off our leads!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Snowflake and Mr Brambles (we never get stung by nettles 'cos we got hair all over us!)

In The Poo Again, Naturally!

Hi Woofers!

Daisy, Holly, Snowflake and Mr Brambles, back again.

As I said yesterday, Old Two Legs was up and out early this morning, after cleaning out the Ferret House and getting them fresh water and food, plus a slurp of the Ferretone.

Now I've often wondered what was so wonderful about that stuff, so, last night, before going to bed, I went up with OTL to watch him have a little game with them and give them their bedtime slurp.

I sat there with my tongue poking out, indicating I wanted a share as well and after the ferrets, I got a couple of drops on the cap to lick off. You know, it's not too bad, mind you, I wouldn't fancy too much 'cos it makes your tongue stick to the top of your mouth!

I think I'll leave it to the ferrets in future, unless I fancy an oily slurp!

OTL was off and away early, so that left us with The Missus.

Off we went for our morning walk across The Farm, 'cos OTL had taken the car. Now, do I look like the sort of puppy that would go looking for trouble? I mean, Me?

Well TM must think so 'cos I got put on the lead and marched past the place where the horses and Bunny Rabbits were frolicking in the field together, I wasn't even allowed to join in!

It was only when we were well down the path and on the 'Home Straight' as OTL calls it, that I was let off the lead!

It's just not fair!

Well, getting close to lunch time OTL returned! Oh! Wow! Was it good to have him back! Maybe we will get a good run down on the beach and a chase after a bunny or two!

Holly and I gave him a great big 'Welcome Home Lick' and jumped around all over the place!

In turn,, we both got a good brush and some chicken for lunch!

Our afternoon walk was an effort! It was just too hot to run about and even the rabbits had stayed in their burrows!

We saw a couple of Two Legs on the beach trying to catch the rays!

Whatever Turns You On!

 Then we spotted the rubbish bin that had slid down the path and landed on the Sea Wall. Holly said that there must be a load of rubbish in there to make it slide down the hill like that!

OTL said it was just the local kids with nothing better to do than be destructive as a joke!

Holly and just couldn't see what was so funny, but, it takes all sorts!

It Takes All Sorts!

Holly found a shady spot, just under the Sea Wall and suggested that we stay there while OTL does the walking and we would wait for him to come back!

Let's Stay Here And Pretend We Are Asleep!

It was no good, OTL insisted we do our walk and also enjoy a sniff, whether we wanted to or not!

So, off we went sniffin' and snufflin' along. Holly said  it was a good job the ferrets stayed at home 'cos OTL would have had to carry them!

Do You Thing OTL Would Carry Us?

 We had to stop for a rest in the shade of the picnic tables, it was getting too tiring!

Lets wait for him to get down the hill first!

Back at the car our water bowl was full of warm water, so OTL emptied it and refilled it with fresh water.

Unfortunately, that was warm as well, so we had a couple of licks and sat in front of the Air Conditioning Vents, it was super!

Back home the only thing we could do is flop down and have a snooze and wait for the sun to go down. That's what Snowflake and Mr Brambles was doing!

Tomorrows Friday! So it won't be long until the weekend, I wonder what OTL has in mind?

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly Snowflake and Mr Brambles.

It's Holiday Time but OTL is doing More Work!

Hi Woofers!

Daisy, Holly, Snowflake and Mr Brambles, back with you again.

Poor Old Two Legs, he is being rushed off his feet and there is more rushing on the horizon!

He was out all day yesterday, he has been working all day today and on top of that, he will be out early tomorrow leaving us with The Missus again!

Help!

I bet we will be going over the Farm and I reckon she will stop me chasing rabbits and I'll bet she will have us on the lead so we can't sneak off for a private sniff or a quick 'Rabbit Hunt'!

Not like OTL, he let's us get on with our games, like this morning.

We were down to Sea Wall with Mr Brambles, mainly 'cos Snowflake was still in bed snoozing! You know, we reckon that her and Holly have one thing in common, neither of them 'Does Mornings!'

Mind you, a slurp of Ferretone will get her out of bed but then as soon as the bottle is put away, back she goes for an 'After Ferretone Snooze'!

Mornings can be Fun!

Mr Brambles is more fun on the walk 'cos he takes loads of time for really detailed sniffs, just like us. He also just loves getting wet, just like me!

Just a Little Splash This Morning!

Mind you, he doesn't go as deep as me but I have seen him swimming!

An Early Morning Dip!

 Just like us, he also enjoys a good dig in the sand and we have even seen him trying to dig up the grass!

Just a Little One to Begin With!

 We have noticed that while when walking slowly, sniffing, he still sort of 'Waddles' but when he gets a trot on he moves his back legs just like Snowflake, but no where near the Gallop she does!

We are hoping that is a good sign that a little exercise will get his legs working like they should!

Off We Go to The Next Beach!

When we got to the next beach Mr Brambles ran straight to the waters edge and dipped his claws in the water.

Hey! He called out, 'Do you want to see me climb?'

'No Thanks!' Says Holly, who was digging the biggest hole she had ever seen!

Swim or Climb?

I had found some rotting fish up the beach and while OTL was busy with Mr Brambles and Holly was head down in a sand hole, I did some serious rolling in this fish stuff!

It Really Ponged and felt all squishy across my shoulders and down my back!

It was me rolling in it that released more of the Pong and even OTL got a sniff of it!

Mind you, I was banned to the back of the car and all the windows were wound down and when we got home I got a wash All Over, from my Nose to the Very Last Hair on My Tail!

Tomorrow we will be across the Farm, maybe we can find some Horse Poo to roll in? I haven't had a Horse Poo roll in ages!

Bye bye for now!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Snowflake and Mr Brambles.

A Day Without OTL and We Get In Trouble, Again!

Hello Woofers!

It's us again, Daisy, Holly, Snowflake and Mr Brambles.

This morning, well before dawn, Old Two Legs was up and pottering about doing his 'Morning Jobs' of clearing the Poo Tray in Snowflakes place and refreshing the water bottles. Mr Brambles and Snowflake didn't quite understand what was going on, I mean, they are never woken that early, not even on holiday!

Holly and I stayed in bed, Holly reckons that OTL had got the 'Fidgets' and decided to have an 'Early Morning Clear Up', so the best place for us was under the blankets!

Mr Brambles said that he was going back to bed and crashed out on the cushion!

Wake me when it's over!

As soon as OTL had done all his jobs he was off out, without us!

Now this is a bit much!

The Missus would have to feed us and take us for walks, providing she did what we wanted, things should be OK.

But they weren't.

We started off with a walk over the Farm and we played with the ball, then it started to rain, Holly started to head for home but I spotted some rabbits in the next field where the horses are kept!

Off I went like a puppy on rocket powered roller skates!

I was in trouble, you could tell that 'cos TM's voice had gone up in pitch to a loud screaming yelp sound and then she was grumbling, just like Holly does when she warns you off her chew!

That was it, I was put on the lead and marched home.

Lunch time was no better, by now TM was watching out for the 'Danger Spots' as she called them and when we got near to the place where the rabbits are, I got put back on the lead, again!

TM said she didn't trust me!

OTL does, well he says he trusts me as long as he can see me or my tail!

So, that was it, restricted walks, no rabbits and what was worse.................

Neither Mr Brambles or Snowflake were allowed out with us for a walk!

We will be glad when OTL comes back, at least we'll get a cuddle!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Snowflake and Mr Brambles.

OTL Tries To Fly Again and Mr Brambles Picks Up Speed!

Hello Woofers!

It's us again, Daisy, Holly, Snowflake and Mr Brambles back with you!

What a day! What a night!

Old Two Legs did it again, yep, he rolled over and fell out of bed! OK, so we know that The Missus does like a little more than her fair share of the bed and of course, Holly and I jump up for a cuddle before going to our own bed and we know that there is not always a lot of room left for OTL!

Just after midnight he was sleeping on his back, close to the edge of the bed, when he decided to roll over, the wrong way, and fell onto my bed!

Luckily I was still on his bed, thinking of moving back to my bed, but not yet!

Down he went with a 'Crash' and managed to hit the bedside cabinet on the way down!

Ouch! says OTL and a couple of other things I didn't really understand, but we gathered that he was in pain!

Holly and I jumped into 'Paramedic' mode and gave his head a good licking, to take the pain away, then we licked his ear to take the pain away from that and then we both licked his nose to stop him moaning!

Poor OTL, he thought that a King Size Bed would have been big enough for all of us!

Maybe he should start off by going to bed on our beds on the floor, while we sleep on his bed. At least he won't have far to fall!

We had a good look at his head in the morning and there is no bruising, just a sore red patch on his cheek where the bedside cabinet 'Kissed' him last night!

This morning, Mr Brambles came with us for our morning walk. Now, before, he had to be picked up a few times on his walk along the Sea Wall, although he did enjoy a good spell of 'Hole Digging' with us but today he proved that this walking thing with us is doing him some good.

Just after leaving the car park he asked to be put down and waddled his way along the path to the beach. OTL had to pick him up a couple of times 'cos he was insisting on running into the long grass and OTL wanted to catch Holly and I, as we were well ahead of him.

Just a Little Hole to start me off!

Mr Brambles really enjoyed that run and after a little dig on the beach, he was off again, along the Sea Wall back to the other beach where we normally dig BIG holes!

I think it is 'Right Hand Down a Bit' here!

He walked nearly all the way there and had a little 'Ferret Around' the rock pools and piles of Sea Weed.

Now you see me, an' now you don't!

For a little ferret that has spent a long time in a cage, he was doing very well and showing us that the runs out were improving his health and well being!
 

Hey! Do I look SUPER GOOD or Wot?

Holly on the other hand said she was feeling a bit warm after chasing Mr Brambles, so she sat down in a nice cooling puddle of mud and water!

Ooh! That's Better!

Back home to a chicken breakfast and a snooze!

That's the way to spend a hot day!

By the way, I've left the lead in some of the pictures, just to let Michael know what it looks like!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Snowflake and Mr Brambles (Looking Super Fit!)!

The Missus Returns!

Hi Woofers!

Daisy, Holly, Snowflake and Mr Brambles back again!

What a let down! Yesterday evening we were expecting the Great Flood with loads of Thunder & Lightning, power failures and stuff like that.

What happened?

All we got was a mild shower and two flashes of lightning and that was it!

Old Two Legs had set up the camera ready for some photographs of the storm and nothing happened!

We were all disappointed!

We were up early this morning 'cos we were woken up by the ferrets re arranging their furniture again. There is something about a Poo Pot as it crashes against the cage that just screams out for your attention, no matter fast asleep you are!

Snowflake came out with us this morning and we all set about hunting rabbit. I saw one and was creeping up on it when Holly came crashing past me, in 'Full Charge' mode and scared the rabbit down its burrow. Snowflake offered to go down and flush it out but OTL said 'no' to that idea!

Down on the beach we all sat to see if the tide was coming in or out and decided that 'Out' was the answer, so no swimming this morning.

Mind you, that didn't stop us from having a good sniff around to see if the tide had brought in any 'Super Sniffs' this morning!

Not a 'Super Sniff' but rather it's an 'Interesting Sniff'

Back home for a brush and breakfast, we got the brush, that was good but when breakfast was served it was 'Doggy Scoff' Yuk!

Holly and I retired to the sofa for a snooze after checking that Snowflake was eating her breakfast, which she was.

You know, that Ferret Nuggets stuff ain't too bad, it's made from chicken or turkey and tastes OK.

Maybe we could do a swap with her for our Doggy Scoff?

Snowflake settled down to her 'After Breakfast Snooze' cuddled up to Mr Brambles.

'After Breakfast Snooze'

OTL headed of to the Little Car armed with a vacuum cleaner, nasty noisy thing that is, the vacuum cleaner, not the car!

We came back from our lunch time walk, just Holly and I 'cos Mr Brambles said it was just too hot for him, half way down the path I got a familiar sniff. As I got closer to the front door the sniff got stronger and when we got in the hall I was positive.

The Missus was home!

We crashed through the door and there she was, sitting on the sofa!

Both Holly and I gave her a big 'Welcome Home' lick and we both jumped up onto the sofa and around the lounge and back up on the sofa and then another lick and around the lounge again then back up on the sofa!

We think she could see that we were pleased to see her!

After we all settled down, TM put the recording of the F1 racing on and we enjoyed a very good race. Lots of super racing and in the end Lewis finally got first place!

So, now we are all snoozy again and like the ferrets, Holly and I are enjoying a late afternoon snooze.

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Snowflake and Mr Brambles.

Wot A Day!

Hi Woofers!

Guess who is here? Yes! It's Old Two Legs!

Not forgetting Daisy, Holly, Snowflake and Mr Brambles!

Down here in North Kent we have had a day of excitement!

First of all Snowflake came with us for the morning jog along the beach. She said that there was no way she was going in for a swim 'cos the mud looked too 'Yucky' so she will stick with the training run, thank you very much!

Just a Jog Thank You!

Holly agreed with her, no swimming and better still, no jogging!

Now that's OK providing you don't have to jog too quickly and Snowflake is getting very good at this running lark.  I'm OK 'cos I'll super fit and sleek and fast but Holly is more of the 4 x 4, slow lumbering but gets there in the end!

Back home to a hearty breakfast of Lambs Heart which I made disappear in no time flat. Holly said she didn't feel like eating and left hers. OTL covered it up and put it in the fridge until later when the temperature cools down a bit.

Now, last night there was forecasts of storms and wind and rain and hail and floods today, at lunch time it still was sunny!

We decided to go out for our lunchtime stroll and of course, take Mr Brambles with us. We went the long way around the circuit and the idea was to stay away from other Two Legs who go Oooh! and Ahhhh! and Wossat? a Rat?

What did we meet? A Family of Two Legs but this time one of the little girls called out 'Look! A Ferret!'

Well that was a good start, at least she knew what she was looking at! Next they wanted to stroke Mr Brambles then blow me down, they wanted to have their photo taken with Mr Brambles! Mr Brambles says it's 'cos he has 'Star Quality' Holly said it was 'cos most Two Legs like that are Dopey and did daft things like have their photo taken with small furry people!

Next it was down to the beach for a dig in the sand.

Holly and I started off in our own hole having a great time.

It's a Daisy-Holly Hole!

Mr Brambles was a bit further back digging his own hole!

This is going to be a Quality Hole!

Next this we know, up marches Mr Brambles and claims that he is going to do a Health & Safety Inspection on our hole and would we clear off!

Health & Safety Inspection!

Holly and I had never heard of that before but it sounded very important, so we let her get on with it. Old Two Legs said it looked more like we were being robbed of our sand hole by a very clever ferret!

This 'Ere Hole Is Condemned!

Next thing we know, our lovely hole was pronounced as being 'Unsafe and Condemned' and she said we weren't allowed back in it again!

Then she marched off saying we would get 'Official Notification' in the post!

Inspection Over, I'm off!

I think I believe OTL, 'We Wuz Robbed!'

We got back home and it was still all sun shine, no sign of a storm yet, but just to make sure, this morning OTL watered the flowers in the pots in the garden and that is a sure way of making it rain!

By the way, there's an old Two Legs in the next village, building a boat and advertising for 'Animals Two by Two', do you think he knows something? 

See you tomorrow, we are off to see what OTL is cooking for dinner and maybe mug a bit for us!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Snowflake and Mr Brambles!

FFF & F1

Hi Woofers!

Guess Who? Yes! It's Daisy, Holly, Snowflake and Mr Brambles!

Last night was a bit warm again, so we were wandering about looking for a cool spot. I decided that Old Two Legs bed was a 'Good Place', so I crashed out there. Holly, on the other hand decided the lounge arm chair was 'The Place to Be' and both Mr Brambles and Snowflake crashed out on our old sleeping bed cushion and decided it was the most 'Ferret Friendly' place to be.

OTL stayed in bed, on his back and snored his head off, as normal!

We were up good and early this morning, no real reason but the temperature had dropped and we all felt lively, even the ferrets were chasing each other around!

OTL was still snoring his head off but a cold wet nose in his ear and me licking his bald head soon got him out of bed!

We took Snowflake out first thing for a run with us along the Sea Wall. As you know, Snowflake is not really into digging holes or swimming, but she does enjoy a good jog!

Normally what happens is, OTL gets her all kitted up in her harness and clips the lead on, then he carries her to the beach which is the start of her run. She used the 'Carrying Time' to wake up, have a stretch and enjoy a sniff before the 'Off'.
 

Wake me up when we get there!

 Mind you, it does take a couple of minutes for her to work out which way to go and make sure no one is in her way!

She says that she is getting faster now and should be called a Fast Flying Ferret! Holly says that she is just showing off 'cos OTL looks after her and picks her up if she gets tired!

Get that Dog Off The Track, FFF about to Set Off!

 She can be a right Fuss Pot sometimes!

Fast Flying Ferret Coming Through!

 Holly and I raced ahead 'cos we know that when Snowflake gets to the 'Rabbit Hunting' place we will have to be put on the lead, so a quick 'Ferret' around just to see in there are any bunnies out to play!

No Bunnies Today!

Back home we got a super bowl of freshly cooked chicken, we know it was freshly cooked 'cos it was still hot and because OTL does it, he leaves the skin on the chicken and that tastes super as well!

We spent the morning with full tummies, snoozing our heads off. OTL did a bit of work in the office then back out to the Little Car to see if he can clean it up where the lettering was. You know, he even tried spraying some WD40 on it to remove the glue!

Of course, we knew that wouldn't work, in the end he was using White Spirit and that removed the glue stuff!

Our lunch time walk was great fun,Mr Brambles came with us, even though it was a bit warm. He is good fun 'cos he loves swimming but today he decided to keep his paws dry!

Unlike me!

Me Cooling My Bits

It was super, just sloshing about in the water and as normal, Holly stayed on the  shore keeping dry!

Mr Brambles said he wouldn't come in swimming today 'cos he fancied some hole digging in the sand!

I'll pass on the swim today!

It wasn't long before we were down on the 'Hole Digging Beach' and after a quick paddle I set to digging a big hole.

Mr Brambles started to dig a hole where all the shells were, he said that his hole was called a 'Shell'ter'! Oh Yes! Very Droll!

Shell'ter from The Storm!

Holly and I were going potty with our own hole and didn't see Mr Brambles creep up on us! Just as we were both 'Tail Up, Nose Down' in the hole he came up behind and gave us both a nip on our rear legs!

That was it, we almost took off!

As soon as we were in the air, Mr Brambles dived into our hole and declared it to be Ferret Territory and told us to find another hole!!

Mr Brambles getting his own back for yesterday!

OTL was sitting on the steps laughing his ears off at the way we got out of the hole. Mr Brambles walked over and said that he was ready to go and 'Didn't he Sort Us Out'!

That's Them Sorted!

 Back home we spent the afternoon watching the F1 Practice on the TV while OTL was doing his office stuff and making phone calls!

I think we got the best idea, I mean, working is so boring!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Snowflake and Mr Brambles!

Mr Brambles Digs Another Hole!

Hello Woofers!

We're back again, Daisy, Holly, Snowflake and Mr Brambles!

Another hot day, but we get lots of water to drink and some cool shade to  snooze in, so we're OK.

This morning Old Two Legs said that we would take Mr Brambles out with us for a walk 'cos he really enjoys the morning walk as it's not so hot.

Snowflake said it was OK by her and rolled over and went back to sleep again!

Of we went in the little car and very soon we were racing along the path to were the rabbits are. Sadly, there were none there, they had all gone back to bed!

It wasn't long before we were on the beach, one of my favourite places!

I just love it when the tide is in 'cos then I can have a 'Deep Paddle' and even when the tide is out I can still get a cooling mud bath!

Mud, Mud, Glorious Mud!

While I was cooling off, Holly found a shady spot under the Sea Wall but Mr Brambles, he was off and digging like a tunnelling machine, he was relentless!

Hi, Ho, Hi Ho, it's Down the Hole we go!

 Sand was flying out the back of his legs, just like a terrier after a rat! Well, we couldn't be shown up like that! I mean, two dogs out done in a digging contest by a Ferret?

Yeah, Getting Down and Dirty in De Hole!

 Next thing we know is Holly shoving Mr Brambles out the way and in she goes like a steam train!

This is how it's done Shorty!

 Mr Brambles was not a happy ferret, he was shoved out of the hole by Holly and all he could do was sit there and Glower!

Ferrets are good at Glowering!

Mr Brambles, Glowering!

 It wasn't long before I had a go as well and soon got really filthy with mud and sand all over me!

Me getting Really Filthy!

 Mr Brambles said he wasn't playing with us any more and marched off to a fresh patch of sand.

That's It, I'm OFF!

 He started another hole but in the end it was more like a scrape, deep enough to be cool but not so deep that he disappears down to the bottom!

This is a good hole, and it's all MINE!

So, OTL and his little 'Point & Shoot' camera managed a couple of good photos, next time, we will ask him to take it instead of his big flashy one!

Back home a parcel arrived with the new shelves for Snowy Heights, the ferret cage, OTL has installed then how he thinks they should be and we await Mr Brambles and Snowflake to let him know if he has done it all correctly!

Ferrets can be so fussy sometimes!

Lunch time Snowflake came out with us but she was not as much fun as Mr Brambles, all she wanted to do was hunt rabbit!

This afternoon we spent snoozing, OTL was going to start on the inside of the Little Car, clearing out all the stones and mud and fur and old paper and sweet wrappings and scent bottles (The Missus's) and hand wipes and, and ,and!

But it was just too hot, so instead he had lunch followed by a snooze!

We know how to live!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Snowflake and Mr Brambles!

Mr Brambles goes in for a swim!

Hi Woofers!

Us again, Daisy, Holly, Snowflake and Mr Brambles!

What a hot day today!

We have decided that this is a good day for 'Doing Nothing'! There are some days when doing nothing is the most sensible.

Our morning stroll was a gentle one, not too much rushing about and Snowflake came with us this time. As soon as she was put down on the beach, she headed for home! She said that she would rather be at home, doing nothing!

Us sensible ones know just what to do, unlike Old Two Legs, he spent most of the morning out trying to get the lettering off the little car, with a 'Hot Air Gun', as if it wasn't hot enough as it was!

So, by lunch time he was suffering from too much heat!

Mr Brambles went with us for our midday stroll and as the tide was right in, he got even closer to the water this time and got caught out by a wave that came and washed him off the beach, he paddled like crazy, for a short while until his claws reached the beach again and he scrambled out, soaking wet and with a big grin on his face!

OTL had him on a lead, so there was never any danger of him being swept out to sea. I had a deep paddle as well which helped me cool down a bit. Holly just parked herself under a bench, in the shadow and wanted to know how long before we get home!

Some little two legs were on the beach and wanted to stroke Mr Brambles and OTL had to instruct them on how to do it.

'This End is the Bitey End and This End is the Stroaky End'

OTL would make a good teacher!

Back to the car and while OTL was finding his keys and getting the seat belt on, I decided that the best place to be is on OTL's lap, so I jumped up and then snuggled down for a cuddle.

OTL was not pleased, you see I was still soaking wet from my deep paddle!

By the time we got home, OTL was still soaking wet and he had to change his trousers 'cos he says it looks like he has wee'd himself!

Mr Brambles managed to dry off before we got home, so he was able to have some lunch and the crash out for the afternoon!

OTL went back out to finish off the car and came back in all hot and bothered. He is presently snoozing in the lounge so we will be waking him up soon, he has got to do some dinner for us all!

Sorry, no pictures today, OTL says that two dogs and a ferret is just about all he can handle and a camera would be too much.

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Snowflake and Mr Brambles (He just loves a 'Splash & a Dash!)!
