Merry Christmas!!

Merry Christmas Woofers!

Here we are again!

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake and Mr Brambles.

Well, last night we stayed up really late and Holly and I hid behind the sofa so we could surprise Santa Paws but it got so late and we got so tired that in the end we went off to bed!

We woke up late this morning and rushed down stairs to find all our presents under the tree!

I got some play balls and Holly got a rubber rattly ball that goes ding-a-ling as it rolls along the floor!

We also got a ball that has something inside that makes it wobble from side to side and when Old Two Legs rolls along the floor it keeps turning corners! We had loads of fun with that!

Of course we both got treats and chews which we both enjoyed gnawing while OTL opened his presents and The Missus did the same. (She got a Card Related Machine!)

Out we went for our morning walk, a little later than normal 'cos the ferrets took their time opening their presents and of course they just had to have their Lactose Free Milk as well!

Down on the beach Miss Snowflake decided to have a game of Hide-N-Seek and disappeared over the rocks, then she called out for us to find her.

Holly said it wasn't Hide-NSeek it was more of a game of Hide-N-Wee!

Betcha Can't See Me!

Holly and I had a run around then decided to sit and wait for Snowflake to come back. It was also a good opportunity for OTL to take a picture of us in our 'Yappy Christmas' neckerchief !

What is she doing out there?

Mr Brambles said that we shouldn't hurry Snowflake 'cos she shows off if we try to hurry her!

Just to demonstrate Mr Brambles crept up behind Holly and shouted BOO!

Yikes! Wot's That?

Back home we enjoyed a big cooked breakfast and Holly and I played around with the balls and the ferrets went off to sleep off the big breakfast she had eaten!

Lunchtime it was sunny down on the beach and I almost fancied a dip, however, OTL said that he didn't have a towel in the car so I'll be very cold by the time we got home!

Well, what about a paddle then?

We met up with an Old Lady Woofer who was fourteen years old and she suffered from arthritis and she even had her own buggy in which she could ride if she needed to have a rest!

Merry Christmas Girls!

We stopped for a sniff and a chat and we told her what Santa had brought us and where the good sniffs were along the path!

We are looking forward to OTL and TM having their Christmas Dinner tonight 'cos there looks like a load of bits we could mug!

So, thanks for all the emails and cards and presents and a big Merry Christmas to all our woofer readers and we will see you all tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake and Mr Brambles.

It's Christmas! Eve!

Ho, Ho, Ho, Woofers!

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake and Mr Brambles here!

Well! It's been a Busy, Busy Day today, we started off with an early trip to the Sea Wall but when we got there the rain decided to pour down on Old Two Legs head!

Holly and I were still in the car and getting our rain coats on and the ferrets were both tucked up in the Ferret Bag.

So, it was only OTL who got wet!

He had to get back in the car, with the ferrets in the bag around his neck, and the we had to wait for about fifteen minutes until the worse of the storm passed.

He had to leave his camera in the car so we had no pictures of us dancing between the puddles!

Back home it was all rush and tear around and OTL finally got the ferrets cage cleaned and then he also managed to get the ferrets claws trimmed using his own nail clippers. The ferrets don't mind this 'cos he lays them down on their backs, the ferrets that is, not the clippers, then, he pours some Ferretone into the lid and puts it across their tummy to the left and then to the right. While the ferrets are licking the lid, OTL cuts the claws on one paw and after moving the bottle to the other side, he trims the other side!

Of course, the ferrets are too busy licking the Ferretone to worry about what OTL is doing, so everything gets done in the end and OTL uses the moment to give them a good inspection all over!

We headed out for our lunchtime walk a little earlier than normal  and ended up for a stomp around the New Park again and The Missus stayed in the big car reading her book. Well, it was just a little muddy!

After that it was off to see Andrea, Paul and the girls Sassy and Tilly.

Now what we didn't know was they had got a couple of cats since we were there last and you know what we are like with Pussy Cats!

I have never seen a cat managed to get all its fur to stand on end at the same time but the one we saw did!

It was hissing and spitting and looked very fierce!

OTL got us away from the window and we got locked in the hall way which spoilt our fun and we didn't get to chase the cat!

So, we have got home and been presented with our scoff while OTL and TM sneak out to visit some of their friends!

We don't mind 'cos it gives us time to have a proper sniff all around the pile of presents!

We have made a Christmas Card for you all and we haven't used any of TMs Glue and Glitter!

A Very Merry Christmas to all our Woofers, and Ferrets as well!

 We will be back tomorrow, all full of Turkey and Pud and Nibbles and anything else we can pinch!

Luv to you all,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake and Mr Brambles!

Summers Coming!

Hi Woofers!

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

What fantastic news! Summer is on its way! The days are getting longer and the nights shorter!

We have got one holiday booked for the Spring Time and we are arguing over the late Summer/Autumn one. Old Two Legs wants to go to Scotland, The Missus doesn't know yet and we just want some rabbits to chase!

Before we left for our walk Snowflake was caught playing with our Christmas Costumes! She was rummaging around looking for the pretend beard!

OK, Where is it!

She didn't find the beard!

This morning we were up late, too late to get some morning sunrise pictures from the beach, as we normally do. OTL looked out of the window and caught this one, just imagine wot it would have been like if we were on The Beach!

A Solstice Sunrise!

Mr Brambles got scared 'cos there was a Sea Gull doing a Flying Demonstration and was getting too close!

Brambles has been studying the bird book and has found a gull called a Bonxie or Great Skua which he says will eat little ferrets!

Was that a Bonxie?

 Miss Snowflake dived under a rock but said she was looking for the Big Smelly Thing!

No Bonxie under here!

 Back home OTL was still putting up the curtains and making a good job, well, at least they were the right way up!

We met a young woofer on our lunchtime walk who said that he had found a super sniff back down on the beach and after he described the place we worked out that he had caught a sniff of ferret poo!

We just couldn't tell him that it was Mr Brambles, I mean, the shame of not knowing what ferret poo sniffs like!

Really!

 I nearly got into trouble, I was a bit behind OTL and Holly, when down the Sea Wall came four woofers!

Now you know me and strange woofers, I'm a bit of a coward and normally hid behind OTL or Holly!

This time, everyone had left me to get through the crowd on my own!

Just keep walking and don't look at any of them!

 I managed to get through without any trouble and we headed back home for OTL to finish the curtains!

After getting them all up we discovered that he had three of them back to front!

Poor lad, he's down stairs working on them now!

OK, we are off now to see what he has done!

Bye bye for now!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake and Mr Brambles.

It's The Real One Today!

Hi Ho Woofers!

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

Well, today was the 'Real Solstice' and we got up really early to see it. We left home in the dark and headed down to The Beach. The sky was getting light and when we looked over to where the sun was going to climb out of bed we saw, clouds! No sun, just clouds and they were down on the horizon and didn't let any sun shine through!

A Terrible Solstice!

Miss Snowflake thought it was a waste of time getting up so early and said that she had better things to do, like have a wee!

Call that a sunrise?

Mr Brambles said much the same thing and then got himself caught by the lead, on a rock!

Here OTL, I'm Stuck!

 He had to get Old Two Legs to unhook him from the rock!

That was it really, too early for any of the usual woofers, so it was back home for breakfast, only, there wasn't any!

Not that it worried us 'cos we sometimes get fed at silly times during the day.

To make up for it, we watched OTL dismantle the electrical connection to the caravan and then went with him to the caravan shop to buy a new box. That was fun 'cos we went in the big car and had loads of fun woofing at the other Two Legs in their cars and we also stuck our tongues out and blew raspberries!

After the caravan shop we headed home but it was getting near to lunchtime walkies, so, as a treat, OTL took us to The New Park!

We had a great time running and chasing each other and woofing at the other woofers. OTL had forgotten to bring his camera, so no pictures I'm afraid!

After getting back home OTL and The Missus were out to get the new curtains and the curtain poles. By the look on OTL's face when they got back, it seems that TM was highly pleased and OTL was not Highly Skint!

Still, the first one went up and although it is a bit long and need turning up, it don't look too bad!

Tomorrow he has got to put up the rest, so that should be fun!

Well, it got to dinner time this evening and we were getting a bit peckish, seeing as we hadn't had so much as a mouthful of food today.

OTL went and got out our 'Posh Scoff' and offered it to us.

Did he really think he could get away with it?

Does he think our noses are all bunged up?

We could sniff the Worming Tablet that was crushed and mixed up in our dinner!

We took about an hour to eat that stuff, normally it takes less than five seconds!

In the end we both sort of finished the bowl but we both left some bits around the edges!

Now we are off to bed, late and a little hungry but we know there is Lambs Heart for breakfast tomorrow, so it's not all bad!

Bye bye for now!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake and Mr Brambles.

It's The Sort of Solstice

Hi Woofers!

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

We have been celebrating the Winter Solstice today, even if it's not really the shortest day today!

We have done some investigation and found out that tomorrow is about five minutes shorter between sun up and sun down, so, we are going to do it twice!

Old Two Legs said we should all dress up as Druids and dance along The Beach but we decided that with the three hundred or so of fishermen who turned up this morning for their fishing contest might be a bit scared, so we will leave it until tomorrow!

This morning the ferrets were dancing around on the beach 'cos they could get to their rocks without getting too wet!

Stop Peeking!

 OTL decided to take a picture as a record rather than a work of art!

Winter Solstice over Sheerness

 As we headed back the fishermen were marching along with their rods and stuff. Holly said that we wouldn't see them again 'cos lunchtime the tide would be racing out and they wouldn't do any fishing on the mud!

Just to prove it, when we returned, a little later that normal, they had all gone!

They've Gone!

We only met one woofer and he was a soppy Bozo of a Spaniel who was having a super time running across the mud and getting absolutely covered in the stuff!

Look! I'm Muddy!

 Holly told him to 'Woof Off' 'cos we didn't want to get muddy like him 'cos that would mean a big wet bath when we got home and OTL might even take our chews away from us!

That was a close thing!

 Off back home where OTL was re installing the music system. He had loads of fun clearing up all the dust that had gathered over the years it has been in the cabinet!

So, tomorrow it is the curtains with a look at the caravan electrics to see why the fuse went pop!

See you tomorrow for another 'Solstice'!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake and Mr Brambles.

It's Getting Closer!

Hi Woofers!

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

Old Two Legs and The Missus were out last night, so Auntie Sheila had to let us out for a wee before we went to bed. Well, we didn't really go to bed 'cos we were waiting up for TM & OTL!

You know, they didn't get in until late and of course, that means they got up late this morning!

TM was running around getting her stuff ready for the 'Crop' at the village hall and OTL headed off with a car full of us four legs to have some fun on The Beach!

The Sun had got up earlier and we had missed the full show but it was still worth a photograph!

Too Late for the Full Show!

Mr Brambles was tickled that the sea had retreated a bit so he could get out onto the rocks, even though Miss Snowflake told him to 'Keep off Her Rock'!

Didn't want to wee on her rock anyway!

Mr Brambles said that they should try creeping up on Holly and me and although he was hiding behind the rocks, we still saw the pair of them getting closer!

Come on, and keep yer tail down!

Back home we soon finished off the chicken and biscuits then headed for the bed while OTL was working on the alarm system and the lights.

The alarm needed resetting after the PIRs had been moved and the lights were 'flashing' and that turned out to be a loose wire!

He was going to set about wiring up the music centre but he couldn't get near enough 'cos TM was still 'Sorting Out' her Work Station!

I think that only a ferret could get around there!

A Ferrets Playground?

Lunchtime we were down the beach again and we met up with a Bozo Type who insisted on telling us what Santa Paws was bringing him and it seemed to consist of almost every doggy treat we knew of!

.......and a chew and a rawhide chew and some doggy nibbles and then a big beef bone and........

Holly said that he would need some serious exercise after eating all that!

OTL finally finished off all the repairs and was saying that on Monday he and TM would be going down to the curtain shop to see if there was a curtain suitable for the lounge!

All we need is the new sofa and chairs and it will be finished!

Trouble is, we have got to wait until January or February before they arrive!

We are off to see what OTL has for dinner tonight, we will be giving him a good mugging!

Bye for now!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake and Mr Brambles!

More Re Assembling and Cleaning!

Yo Woofers!

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

Last night the Two Legs were working hard getting our chairs and stuff back into place and Holly was in charge of making sure they were in the correct places!

I was in charge of the DVDs making sure they are in alphabetical order!

We were all tired little puppies when we went to bed and Holly was asleep before Old Two Legs got into bed, making it a bit of a job for him to get enough of the duvet to cover himself!

Up early, we were out in the fresh air and Mr Brambles said it was the warmest he had known it for a couple of weeks or more!

Miss Snowflake couldn't find her rock again and had to make do with taking her chance with the waves!

It's Behind You!

 Holly and I were having fun dashing up and down the beach and having a roll in the rotting sea weed, much to OTL's annoyance!

The ferrets decided to have a race along the Sea Wall and Brambles cheated by running off before Snowflake was ready!

Much to her annoyance!

Oi! Cheat! Come Back and start again!

 Just as the ferrets were getting ready for another race that Bozo Woofer came past. He was the one that Holly told to 'Woof Off' when the Bozo was getting too close to OTL and the ferrets!

He came along the Sea Wall and stopped to say hello to OTL and he also gave OTL a lick on the nose, just to show he was friendly really!

OTL said that he should watch out 'cos Holly was on the beach and she may come and sort him out!

Yeah! In her dreams!

On the way up the path, the ferrets were ducking and diving through the grass and having a roll as well! OTL didn't tell them to 'Get Up' like he does when we do it!

Mind you, it seems to give them a bit of a 'charge' 'cos Mr Brambles went tearing up the hill shoving Holly and me out of the way!

Ferret Coming through!

 Holly nearly got knocked off her paws as Brambles went tearing through!

Outta The Way There's a Ferret Behind You!

Back home it was back to re assembling all the furniture and OTL was doing the alarm system. He was balancing on top of a step ladder putting the PIRs  back and he kept setting off the alarm!

It all worked in the end and we are looking at finishing by tonight. All there is left is to get the curtains and install them but that will be next week, just in time for Christmas!

The Missus is in a good mood 'cos he got her desk in and set it all up so she doesn't have to go into the caravan to make a card!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake and Mr Brambles.

Getting Back to Normal'ish!

Hello Woofers!

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

You will be pleased to know that the Decorator Men packed up all their gear last night and said they wouldn't be back 'cos they had finished!

There was still a big pong of paint but that would wear off over night.

They loaded up their car with all the sheets and buckets of paint and then stood in line with their hands out, looking for some dosh!

Old Two Legs said that they had done a splendid job and was happy to pay out the money. In fact, it was the insurance companies money 'cos he had claimed for all the damage done by the leaky pipe and now we have a new lounge and dinning room!

The Missus is talking about getting them back to fit new doors throughout the house!

Down on the beach the tide was right in and Miss Snowflake couldn't get out to her Wee'ing Rock!

She even braved sticking her tail out at the waves that were splashing onto the shore, but then she got scared and ran up the beach to OTL so she could get into the bag again!

Too Close For Miss Snowflake!

Brambles said he wasn't scared and he wandered down to the waters edge, blew a big raspberry and ran back before the water could splash up the beach again!

Nah! Nah! Nah!, Not scared of you!

One thing we have noticed, Mr Brambles has now got his Winter Coat and the hair that is darkish brown has grown very dark at the ends, this picture shows it very well. Of course, Miss Snowflake is still white all over but she is all 'Fluffy' and 'Cuddly' with her winter coat and she looks dead smart in it as well!

Mr Brambles is always cuddly and enjoys a cuddle while slurping the Ferretone!

OTL was disappointed that there was no sunrise over Sheerness and took this picture just to show how undramatic the morning was!

Sort of Boring really!

Mind you, when we got back home it was all go, go, go, to get the house put back together again. All the furniture had to be dusted off and assembled and put in place. All the stuff had to be got out of the loft and other hiddy holes where it had been stashed while the decorating was going on!

New lights had been purchased, so OTL was busy with the screwdriver installing them and when he finally switched them on we all went 'Ooooooooooooh!

Lunch time The Missus took us out for a walk around the field which was not what we were expecting and to be honest, it was just not the walk we wanted!

About five, OTL had finished all he was going to do today and put us both in the car and off to the Sea Wall we went, in the dark!

It was fun hiding from OTL as he walked along the Sea Wall, then we would jump out at him and go 'Woof!' and make him jump!

Great fun!

So, the rest of the evening is going to be 'Fine Tuning' the stuff on the shelves and then doing the measuring for the new curtains!

Inch or metric?

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake and Mr Brambles.

Another Day of Pongs and Restricted Movement!

Hi Woofers!

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

Well, we still have the Decorator Men here slapping the paint about but I must say, they are doing a super job and we can't wait for them to finish!

Last night Holly fell out of bed! She was doing an 'OTL' by having an energetic dream where she was fighting a big Bozo Woofer who was looking to eat the ferrets!

She jumped up and with a big snarl, she fell off the bed and landed on the cushions where she took a big bite out of the Bozo's butt and found out it tasted like sponge filling of her cushion!

She decided to spend the rest of the night on the cushion as it wasn't too high off the ground!

Along the Sea Wall this morning we met up with Bryn and Max and Oscar, who we hadn't seen for some time 'cos they get out early in the morning nowadays, so we were catching up with the gossip and the sniffs.

We all took the woof out of Bryn 'cos he was the only one to have a coat on! he said it wasn't his fault but it did stop the draft blowing down his neck!

Do those elastic straps pinch?

Now, we normally go down onto the beach and come back via the steps but today there was one of the Fishermen throwing worms back into the sea. So, Old Two Legs had to pick the ferrets up and lift them onto the path!

Look, a Bozo Fisherman is blocking our path!

Holly and I sort of crept around all his fishing stuff and Holly even had a sniff for some sandwiches but we thing he had already eaten them!

Both ferrets were a bit put out that they had to move off their normal path and showed off until they were back on the grass path and could recognise the sniffs!

Back home we were locked in the bedroom with our bowls of Lambs Liver while the Decorator Men slapped some more paint on the walls.

Cor! That paint really pongs and it even makes me sneeze!

Lunchtime it was The Missus who took us out 'cos OTL was off to the dentist!

As it was just for a checkup we wasn't too worried, they just poke about then charge him money. That is a lot better than causing him pain, and then charge him money!

We had a chat to a couple of fishermen who were painting numbers on the Sea Wall, seems like there's going to be a big fishing match next weekend and there will be loads of sandwiches there as well!

Holly is licking her lips already!

This afternoon has been a bit boring 'cos we have been confined to the office because of the paint slapping. Holly has got a bit ratty with Snowflake 'cos she was having a sniff of Holly's ear and Holly didn't like it!

It was a good job the cage was in between them!

Not sure if the Decorator Men are going to finish today, claws crossed they will!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake and Mr Brambles.

Wot a Pong!

Hi Woofers!

The Gang is Back! Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake and Mr Brambles!

You know, I just love lazy mornings and we had another one this morning!

The Missus had got up at midnight again 'cos she had 'an inspirational dream about a card' and wanted to try it out.

Yeah, I know, and we understand there's no cure!

Well, that left us on the bed and cuddled up to Old Two Legs who was doing the proper thing of snoring his head off!

What with all the lights going on and off and TM marching up and down the stairs to her 'Craft Room', we sort of 'Over slept' and woke up to a stunning sunrise!

It was all crimson red and yellows and almost filled the sky.

We heard OTL go into the ferrets to say good morning and Mr Brambles was muttering away about a 'Red Sky in the Morning, a Ferrets Warning'!

He's a happy little soul first thing in the morning!

We all rushed around and got ready to go but when we got to the car, the sun had got up and left it's crimson cloak behind and instead was wearing his gold coat as normal!

Holly and I went off to investigate the sniffs while OTL emptied the ferrets out of the bag. He reckons it is better that pulling them out!

I wish he would let us wake up before emptying us out!

 Miss Snowflake went off to find her special rock but there was more water around than normal and she was worried about getting her tail wet!

Looks damp down there!

 It was then that she decided to make an 'Executive Decision'................

I name this rock 'Wee'ing Rock Number Two'

 Mr Brambles joined us on the beach and was puzzled about where all of the sea weed had come from. Holly said that it turned up every year just before Christmas and that's the only time she ever sees it.

Mr Brambles reckons it should be called Christmas Weed!

I name this.........Christmas Weed!

Back home the decorator men were slapping paint everywhere so we had to stay in the kitchen until we had finished our chicken and then we were marched upstairs, one at a time, and had to stay with OTL in the office.

It wasn't too bad and he did have the window open to get rid of the paint sniff, horrible it is!

It wasn't too long before lunchtime arrived and we set off for another run along The Sea Wall!

Now, ages ago we told you about some Two Legs who was making a film for the Tourist Office and he wanted to film us walking along the Sea Wall? Well, when we were down the vets, one of the ladies down there commented on the fact she had seen the film and us and OTL!

So, back home we had a 'Surf' around YouTube and found it! If you get onto YouTube and search for Discover Medway V3 YT 1080P you will find us. Now we are 4.42 minutes into the film and it starts off with OTL taking a picture and the Holly and I running along the Sea Wall. I know it's not a long scene but, unlike everyone else, we get TWO SCENES!

Are we the stars or wot! Mind you, don't blink or you'll miss us!

We were down the Sea Wall and met up with a new woofer. We all had a sniff but he was a bit unsure of OTL. First he ran towards OTL, then he stopped, OTL put on his 'Friendly Face' and the woofer came closer.

Then he ran away again, stopped, turned around and came running back. OTL still had his 'Happy Face' and the woofer stopped again, unsure about a Two Legs who could 'Talk Doggy'!

It was then that his owners called him and he had to go, maybe next time he'll get closer to OTL!

I know it's a 'Friendly Face' but on a TL?

 He'll learn, maybe next time!

Back home the Decorator Men were slapping the paint brushes about and sloshing paint everywhere! Oh but the stink! I have been sneezing almost all day!

I will be glad when they finish and the house is ours again!

See you all tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake and Mr Brambles.
