It's a Yucky Day Today!

Hi Woofers!

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake and Mr Brambles back again!

Wot a day! We were woken up in the early hours with The Missus switching lights on and off plus banging pot and pans about in the kitchen!

Even the ferrets  said they were woken up as well!

We dropped TM off at The Cat Woman's house 'cos TM was out playing 'Glue & Glitter' and was going to meet Archie Babe's mum as well!

We got down to the beach and Old Two Legs said we had to 'Get in line'!

Wot?

Get in line with the tower.

Why?

The Light, Look at the light!

So!


In Line with the Light!
Both ferrets said they needed a wee, so OTL put them down on the beach and they both ran to the waters edge.

Mr Brambles said he always enjoyed wee'ing in the water 'cos it 'Tinkled'!

What ever turns you on Brambles Babe!

There is nothing like a good tinkle!
Then it started to rain, so, back home for some food.

TM had just said that our food was, 'In the Kitchen' but when we all went in there all there was on the work top was a tin of Doggy Scoff!

Right! No cuddles for her tonight!

Lunchtime we were out again, hoping for a 'Dry Walk' but guess what? It was raining and that means it was a quick run and a wee before heading back to the car.

Mind you, we did come across a few interesting sniff!

What you got Sis?
Back home we helped OTL eat some lunch and settled down to watch the rugby, we lost!

Not sure what OTL has planned for dinner tonight but we are hoping it is 'Mugable'!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake and Mr (Tinkle) Brambles!

Do we look The Business or Wot?

Hi Woofers!

Here we are again, Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake and Mr Brambles.

This morning we were up early, in fact Holly and I were up about four fifteen, Holly decided to go down stairs and spend some time on the sofa while I gave Old Two Legs a lick behind the ear then cuddled up to him and went back to sleep!

The Missus got up early to get her stuff packed ready for her day at the village 'Glue & Glitter Bash'!

Holly said that she makes too much noise, so as soon as she started crashing about, Holly legged it back up OTL's bed!

We got OTL up earlier 'cos we had to take TM to the hall and then we needed to get our walk in before heading off to the Poodle Parlour!

It was spitting with rain and OTL had brought our rain coats with us so we were well protected.

Unlike the Ferrets!

They stayed in the Ferret Bag until OTL emptied them out on the beach.

Miss Snowflake headed for the rocks and tried skipping from one rock to the other, until.......

Oh No! Not again!
 Mr Brambles stayed away from the water and spent some time digging a ditch in the sand!

He said that he had heard that pirates buried treasure on the beach and he was looking for some!

Looking for buried treasure!
 After a while Snowflake got back onto the rocks again and was looking around for the 'Slimy Wet Thing' but we reckon it was hiding to get out of the rain!

No, can't see anything!
 Then Miss Snowflake decided that enough was enough and decided that she would rather be back in the bag again!

So, back went Snowflake and she stayed there until we got off the beach and into the grass.


Come on OTL, I want back in!
Back to the car for a towel down and then off to the Poodle Parlour.

Well, we both got washed, blow dried, clipped, shaved and squirted with smelly stuff!

When OTL came to pick us up at two thirty we were good and ready to get out of there!

The only trouble was, yep, you guessed, it was raining!

So, on with our rain coats again and of course, we couldn't show off our new hair cuts but at least it was better than getting too wet!


It's a Daisy Dog!
 Holly was all full of it 'cos she could see now the hair had been cut away from over her eyes!

Here's a Holly Dog!
 Back home OTL cooked up our Lambs Heart, all juicy bits with mixer biscuits and a drizzle of gravy over the meat and biscuit, it was Lovely!

So, claws crossed for a dry day tomorrow so we can show off our hair cut to all the lads!

Bye bye for now!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake and Mr Brambles.

Wet Wet Wet Wet and just for a change, WET!

Hi Woofers!

It's Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake and Mr Brambles here again, and we got wet!

Old Two Legs got wet as well!

We left home this morning looking forward to a walk on the beach and a game of 'Chase' or 'Hunt The Ferret' but when we got down there the ferrets stayed inside the bag and it was only Holly who got chased by Big Freddy who is always up for a game!

OTL left the camera in the car 'cos it was raining and he didn't want to get it wet, so we don't have any photo's of Big Freddy!

We were given a good rub down back in the car and also when we got home. Then, Holly and I did our 'Snoozy' bit on the bed!

Me, Snoozing!
 And there, at the bottom of the bed was.....................


Holly, Snoozing!
We got woken up a bit later 'cos OTL had prepared the chicken for us, all warm and greasy!

After we had finished that, we got a 'Teeth Cleaning Chew' each and settled down for another snooze before we went out for the lunchtime stroll!

What a difference! The sun came out, there was blue sky's and it was quite warm!

........you wouldn't believe it's half way through November!
 Holly and I had a game of 'Chase' on the beach and I said I would give her a five yard start!

OK, here I come!
 It was great fun dashing up and down the beach and of course, I always caught Holly but we were both laughing and woofing 'cos it was a lot more fun than the morning run!

Then we had an idea, we would give OTL a ten yard start!

I think we should have given him a twenty yard start!
Of course, we caught him up in no time but it was still fun!

Back home for a snooze before dinner and for OTL to finish off today's work load and get ready for the weekend.

Tomorrow morning we have an appointment with the Poodle Parlour! So tomorrow we will all super smelly and looking good!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake and Mr Brambles.

A Grey Day in Autumn!

Hello Woofers!

Us again, Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake and Mr Brambles.

I don't know about you but we can definitely feel a chill in the air, a sure sign that Autumn has arrived! The leaves are all falling off the trees and birds we saw all summer have headed south for the Winter!

We spotted some Brent Geese on the mud a week or two ago and they are a sure sign the seasons are changing!

The Dragonfly's have all disappeared and we haven't seen a Bumble Bee for two weeks!

Miss Snowflake reckons that ferrets should really hibernate like a Hedgehog but the thought of snoozing in damp leaves has put her off, instead she prefers a warm blanket in Snowy Heights!

Just like normal!

We were up late this morning 'cos Old Two Legs overslept a bit and I must admit, so did Holly and I!

The ferrets were up at sunrise and were waiting for OTL to bring them their morning bowl of Lactose Free Milk!

Out on the beach, Miss Snowflake had a wander around the sea weed again and found herself on top of a rock, surrounded by water, again!

Err! I think I'm in trouble again!
 It took Mr Brambles to coax her off the rock without falling into the water!

Holly and I got fed up with waiting and had a game on the beach. I dug a hole and Holly hunted around for a tree to plant!

Trouble was, we couldn't agree on how to plant it, and so, we ended up in a fight, trying to get the tree from each other and it broke in half!

Come on, hurry up it's roots are getting cold!
By then the ferrets were heading towards the grass for their morning wash and we followed them up the steps.

Come along Dear, almost there!
It's fun watching them go swimming in the grass and OTL doesn't even tell them off! Not like when we do it! When we do it OTL calls it 'Rolling in Something Mucky'!

Once we got onto the top path, we heard 'Helloooo Girlie's!'

It was Barney out for his morning walk. When he got to us he said Hello to Mr Brambles and Miss Snowflake as well, then headed back to find his ball!

Hellooo Girlie's and Mr Brambles!
Then it was back home to a nice warm bed and a bowl of Lambs Heart followed by a gentle snooze on OTL's bed!

Lunchtime it was back to the beach again 'cos OTL said it would be too muddy down The Forest, he is such a spoilsport!

Still, we had some fun running along the beach and up and down the steps, well, it keeps us fit!

Come on, OTL's right behind us!
 OTL was puffing and blowing trying to keep up with us, great fun!


Keep going, we're gaining on him!
When we got around the corner the wind really picked up and it was so strong it blew OTL's hat off, twice!

While we were galloping along The Sea Wall, he had to run back to get his hat before it blew into the sea!

Holly said he needs an elastic band over his hat and then under his chin to keep it on!

Looks like it could be rain tomorrow, so it will be rain coats and a short walk!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake and Mr Brambles.

Another trip to The Forest!

Hi Woofers!

How's your day been? Let me tell you about the day we have had!

It's the Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake and Mr Brambles show!

Last night it was cuddles for Holly, in fact she went hunting Old Two Legs and insisted she got a cuddle on his seat with OTL and stayed there almost all evening. I think that she finally moved only because she was getting too hot!

At least there were no Whizz Bands but every time The Missus dropped anything up in her store room Holly thought it was a Whizz Bang and gave a little jump!

This morning we headed off to The Beach and spotted a rabbit on the path, so we gave chase!

Lucky rabbit, he got away!

Quick he's just around the corner!
 Down on the beach the sun was playing around with the clouds, as normal and all OTL had to do was wait for a sun beam!

Morning sun!
Both ferrets were emptied out of the bag and Miss Snowflake did a lap around the beach, in reverse!

OTL said she was 'Moon Dancing'!

I was more interested in digging a new  hole and when Holly asked what I was digging, I said that it was just a 'Hole Lotta Fun'!

A Hole Lotta Fun!
 Miss Snowflake sneaked back into the bag but was getting a bit desperate 'cos she wanted a wee!


Are we off the beach yet?
Back home both ferrets had some fun chasing each other around the house and pretty soon they were both worn out!

So, it was back into Snowy Heights for a snooze and as OTL says, 'No One Sleeps Like a Ferret'

Sleeping as only a ferret can!
We left them to it and headed off to the sofa to snooze the morning away while OTL was working in the office.

About lunch time he had a delivery to make so off we went, leaving the ferrets still asleep!

We ended up in The Forest and just for a change, instead of walking around anti clockwise, as we normally do. OTL took us clockwise and you know, it was like walking through a new forest!

Of course we were squirrel hunting while OTL was Fungi Hunting!

A little fungi in the cracks in a tree trunk.
 OTL was telling us that the Fungi is a way of getting the seeds spread about and the trees had their way of getting seeds spread about as well. We found a tree seed and a fungi and OTL took a picture!


More than one way to spread your seeds!
 Holly and I had fun running through the leaves, that was until we ran into a muddy patch!

Three more steps and Squelch!
 It was after that we kept off the main path and tried to keep to the tree trunks but there were times when we landed in the mud again!

Watch out for the muddy bits!
Back home we got a bit of a wash on our paws and OTL had to take his boots off before coming through the front door. If he hadn't, he would have been in deep poo!

So, tonight Holly says that she will need another cuddle, just to make sure there are no more Whizz Bangs and anyway, she like a cuddle with OTL!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake and Mr Brambles, (still snoozing)

We've Been 'Home Alone'!

Hi Woofers!

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake and Mr Brambles here!

Last night Holly was getting a bit twitchy 'cos she was expecting some more of those Whizz Bangs to be let off. So, she got prepared by jumping up onto Old Two Legs lap and cuddling up to him!

We were both listening but didn't hear anything! I said it would be possible that they have all finished but Holly wasn't too sure, so it looks like OTL will get another cuddle tonight!

The sun was out this morning and we enjoyed a good run down on the beach. OTL put the ferrets down at the rock pools and we both watched Snowflake have a scramble while looking for the 'Slimy Smelly Thing that hides under the sea weed!

Mr Brambles was more interested in having a dig on the beach, so he left her to it!

Oh Dear! I'm All Behind today!
 It was all OK until we heard a splashing sound and saw that Snowflake had  slipped off the rock and landed, butt first, in a rock pool!

She was not a happy ferret!


Oh Bother!
Back in the car she got a rub down with our Doggy Towel and was all nice and dry in no time!

OTL took us back home and after cleaning the ferret cage, chasing the ferrets around in a game of 'Hunt The Ferret' he then grabbed his coat and left us!

I mean, he said 'Bye Bye' went down stairs and you know what? The Missus followed him out the door as well!

Seems like they had a list of 'Things to Do' that were going to take some time!

Holly and I decided that as they had left us, we would stretch out on their bed and snooze the day away until they came back!

That'll teach them!

You know, it wasn't until mid afternoon that they returned! Of course, the first thing OTL did was to take us out for our 'LATE'  lunchtime walk which was really a late afternoon walk!

Now it is getting dark, Holly has got a bit nervous again regarding the Whizz Bangs and has woofed at OTL to let her sit on his lap!

I think it's going to be another 'Cuddly Night'!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake and Mr Brambles.

Holly Sorts Them Out

Hi Woofers!

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

We've had a fun day today, it started off with both Holly and me waking Old Two Legs up, just to give him a Licky Kiss to tell we love him, even though it was four thirty in the morning!

The ferrets said that they would do that as well but were scared that if they did, The Missus might tread on them in her rush to get out of bed!

Mind you, when they are out walking in the morning Miss Snowflake does like a cuddle with OTL, just to help get her fur dry after a wash in the wet grass!

Mr Brambles very rarely does that, he is more interested in the new sniffs and trying to find the Weasels!
 
Mmmm, Weasel Sniffs!
Once Miss Snowflake had been thrown out of the Ferret Bag, she joined in the hunt for Weasels and decided it was really just the sniff from Mr Brambles from yesterday!

Hey! This sniffs just like you!
We met up with Max, Oscar and Bryn, then a bit later there was Barny and a Bozo Labrador, I mean, just so many dogs!

The ferrets had never been carried so much!

Lunch time we were down the beach again and OTL wouldn't let me in swimming, he said it was too cold!

Along the beach we met up with a six month old Rottweiler  who was being a bit cheeky. Holly warned him that he could get a telling of if he didn't show some respect!

Oh Yeah?
Well, that was it, up came Bozo and chased Holly and me about a bit. That was until Holly gave him a good woofing and I jumped up onto OTL's lap so I was above the Bozo , then I gave him a good woofing!

Soppy Bozo didn't know where to look!

Don't tell me off, it was just some fun!
 Well, he was soon put in his place!

Further along the beach we met up with another woofer who was a cross breed like us, but a lot bigger!

Holly, having sorted out the  Bozo Rottweiler said that she would sort out this Bozo as well!

Me, having a bit more sense, legged it up the Sea Wall and was soon sitting next to OTL!

Sorry Sis, You're on your own!
Well, after a sniff, they both parted company and Holly carried on down the beach to where his owner was sitting, you can guess what she said!

OK, that's yer Woofer sorted, now get out the Sarnies!
No luck, the TL hadn't brought any with her!

That's it, back home again for a snooze before dinner. With a bit of luck the Whizz Bangs will have all be let off by now so we should get a peaceful evening!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake and Mr Brambles.

And Back Came The Rain, Then It Went Away Again and I Went Swimming!

Hi Woofers!

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake and Mr Brambles have returned again!

We had another peaceful night, Holly's tummy seems to have settled down, although Old Two Legs still has to inspect every poo us woofers do!

And I include the ferrets as woofers as well!

Poor OTL, I know he has to have a hobby but Poo Inspection?

Any way, off we went this morning, in the dry, to the car. Drive off down the road and the rain started. When we got to the Sea Wall, it was still raining and OTL hadn't brought our raincoats!

Out we got and ran down the path expecting short, productive, run before heading back to the car.

Just as we got to the rabbit field, it stopped raining!

In fact it didn't rain again until we got to the car again!

We have got some strange weather!

Down on the beach Holly and I started digging a hole but gave up after the ferrets came over and said it was orientated wrongly!

What do they know about holes?

Then Snowflake decided that 'In The Bag' was better than 'Walking on the sand' and in she went!

She stuck her head out when we got off the beach and OTL put her back on the ground so she can have a wash in the wet grass.

That was OK until she was clean and fresh, then she got OTL to pick her up again 'cos she wanted a cuddle, to get dry!

Sneaky Ferret or Wot?

Back home it was Doggy Scoff on the menu, Holly and I had a taste but decided that we would try some mugging first!

I got into the office just as OTL was giving the ferrets their 'Treat', Malt Paste Nibbles which are rather tasty and very crunchy! They help stop the ferrets from getting hair balls and other stuff.

I love them!

So, I mugged three from OTL while the ferrets were chomping away on their treats!

OTL finished cleaning out the poo pots (after inspection) and declared that 'Every Thing was Normal'!

Lunchtime came and the sun was out, so off to the Sea Wall again. Like yesterday, the tide was in and right at the top of the tide as well!

It was sunny, it was warmish, there were no big waves, I felt brave!

I went in swimming!

Well, there were some Two Leg Bozo's on the beach throwing stone in the water.

Sunday Bozo's
And I did ask OTL if I could go in!

Come On,Throw The Woofin' Stick!
Then I was in!

Wheeeeeeeee!
OK, it wasn't all warm but then again it wasn't freezing. OTL found a stick and I had a few splashes before it was decided I'd had enough and we should carry on the walk!

A bit further up the Sea Wall we met up with Charley who said that there was no way she would go in swimming and Holly said that I was just too daft! 

You won't catch me in there!
I didn't care, it was fun!

Back at the car I got a good rub down with our towel that OTL keeps in the car, for wet days and swimming days!

Then we were off to the town to get a couple of cartons of Lactose Free Milk for the ferrets. They had drunk the last of their milk this morning and if they don't get their morning milk they show off all day!

There's just no living with them!

We are off now to watch the F1 Racing, stretched out on the sofa with a nibble or two and woofing at the screen!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake and Mr Brambles.

It's getting colder!

Hi Woofers!

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake and Mr Brambles here again!

You will be please to hear that Old Two Legs got a relatively undisturbed nights sleep last night. Well almost, I did wake up in the early hours with a desperate urge to give his ear and bald patch a serious licking!

Holly didn't get the need to wake OTL either, so, snoozing all night!

When we went to the front door to load the car up with The Missus's stuff for her Master Class, it was raining, wet rain, so on with the rain coat!

OTL decided not to take the camera 'cos it would get too wet, that means he had more time to run away from Miss Snowflake when we got to the beach!

It was rather funny 'cos they both got out of the bag, had a wee, then headed back to the bag again!

I must say, Holly and I had the same idea but there wasn't enough room in the bag, I mean, it was full of ferrets!

We had some fun taking a load of rubbish down the dump and then back for a breakfast of chicken followed by a snooze.

OTL had a look at the 'Instruction List' and decided to trim back one of the big plants in the garden, the one the Blackbird nests in each year!

Well, it kept OTL out of trouble!

Lunchtime came and OTL grabbed the camera and we headed off to the Sea Wall again but this time, instead of his normal camera he grabbed the Infra Red Thingy Camera, which means, Black and White photos!

The tide was right in and looking at how far it had come up the beach I reckon it must be a Spring Tide.

Well, I stood there and had a think, shall I or ....?

Do I really want a swim?
 In the end I decided against it 'cos it was just too cold!

...and it looks too wet as well!
Holly came walking along and commented that it was just too windy for a swim, not that she would go in, even in the summer!

Too Windy for me!
Half way through the walk, down came the rain again! So, a quick wee and the short cut and back to the car at a trot!

Back home we had another nibble from our bowl and headed for the bed for another snooze before TM came back from her Master Class.

As it got dark the Whizz Bangs started again and Holly went up stairs to OTL in his office and demanded he pick her up and give her a cuddle!

I mean, he was tickling the ferrets at the time! Still, Holly came first 'cos the ferrets can sleep through anything, including Whizz Bangs!

So, with the rain heading our way it possibly could be a short episode of Whizz Bangs tonight, claws crossed!

See you tomorrow when we will be helping OTL in the garden!

Bye for now!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake and Mr Brambles

Forest Fungi, Galloping Woofers and Scary Cat Brambles!

Hi Woofers!

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake and Mr Brambles back again!

Wot a Friday!

We were out good and early 'cos Holly got Old Two Legs up at two thirty this morning 'cos she still had a Grumbly Tummy. That means we didn't get back to sleep and The Missus joined in by tossing and turning so much she kicked both Holly and me off the bed!

Well, there was nothing left but to get up earlier than normal!

When we got to the Rabbit Field, Holly said that she could see a load of Galloping Woofers!

Look! Galloping Woofers!
 It was raining, but not too much, so with out coats on we headed for The Beach!

OK, but I'm not going in for a swim!
Mr Brambles said that as the ferrets didn't have rain coats they should get a 'Carry' from the Woofers!


Gissa Lift Miss?
 Holly was trying to negotiate a fee for Ferret Carrying when Miss Snowflake noticed that OTL had crouched down to re tie his boot lace and quick as a flash, both ferrets climbed back into the bag!
  
Move over, I'm here!
Of course, a bit further on OTL emptied both ferrets out with the instruction to 'Get Out and Walk!'

Mr Brambles headed for the wet grass for a morning wash while Snowflake started to show off 'cos she wanted to get back in the bag!

I'm not going to forget this!
Back home for a game with Holly and then I got to go up in the loft with OTL for a sniff to see if there was anything new!

Lunchtime we were off to do some deliveries and then, 'The Forest'! OTL reckoned that there should be some more fungi showing so he took his Macro Lens to see what he could find.

First off there was a Puff Ball that if you touched the ball, then a puff of smoke came out of the hole in the top!

OTL said it wasn't smoke, instead it was spores, or fungi seeds!

A Puffing Puff Ball!
Holly and I met up with a couple of Two Legs that were out for a walk in the forest and Holly said that she could sniff sarnies, so we tried to mug them but they wouldn't give us anything at all!

Go on, just a little nibble of your sarnie!
OTL was busy snapping away at every bit of fungi he could see. We have seen all the fungi before, so nothing new came up but they had become more numerous!

More fungi under the logs.
 Holly and I were more interested in the squirrels and we spent so much time watching the trees that we both ended up with sore necks!

Why won't they come down to play?
Back home, the Whizz Bangs started again and Holly and I ended up in OTL's office tucked under a couple of fleeces and with the TV volume turned up so it drowned out the noise of the Whizz Bangs. It didn't get rid of the noise but it helped!

So, here we are, under the desk hiding away from those Whizz Bangs, roll on tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake and Mr Brambles.
