OTL is in TM's good books.........the Creep!

Hi Woofers!

Here we are, Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss Wendy, Freddy and Eric de Ferret!

We got an SMS from the vet, they want to see Eric de Ferret and stab him with a needle and charge Old Two Legs a fortune for the pleasure!

What they don't realise is that ferrets get stabbed every two years!

Still, it reminds us that Eric will have been with us for a whole year come the end of October.

So, that's a whole month to make up a Happy Birthday Song!

When we went down to the beach it was raining a tiny bit but not enough to worry us woofers!

A sort of misty rain!
 One good thing was that there was a bit of a breeze blowing, that got rid of that yucky stuff we had seen the last two days!

These it is.........Gone!
Mind you, I still didn't fancy going in for a swim!

Miss May and I were hunting Weasel Sniffs today, it was good fun and we found two tracks!

You have to watch out for Weasel Poo as well!
 Lunchtime we were out again with Fred and Wendy.

When we got to the beach and OTL put the ferrets on the sand, a bunch of Two Legs stopped and were all going 'Ooooooh! I see two ferrets'!

You would have thought that they would have come down onto the beach for a stroke, but no, they stood there on the Sea Wall, looking at us with their binoculars!

'Oooh, they look so big through my binoculars!
They didn't hang about too long 'cos Freddy turned around, waved his tail at them and did a big poo!

That got rid of them!

So Rude!
Not that Freddy worried, as he says, 'When you gotta go, you gotta go!

Back home the new dishwasher arrived and OTL installed all the pipes and cables and plugs and all that and then we put some plates and stuff in and ran the 'Pre-Wash' just to check for leaks. All dry and working well!

OTL was given a cup of tea when he finished! A sure sign TM was happy with the washer.

Now we are all rushing around collecting grubby plates and drinking bowls and dinner bowls and tea spoons and plates, all trying to fill the machine up for a 'Real Wash'!

OTL is still on the salad stuff, we don't do green food, unless it's a bit of grass when we get a dicky tummy!

Lucky for us, OTL will be getting a bit of steak tonight.

Guess who is going to help him finish it off!

Next Saturday OTL is off to the local Agricultural College for a day of being told how to clip woofers properly.

Just to be on the safe side, I have agreed that Holly goes with OTL to be the woofer wot gets bathed, clipped and stuff!

I'm not daft!

See you all tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss Wendy, Freddy and Eric de Ferret.

Saturday and we have almost caught up!

Hi Woofers!

Us again, Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss Wendy, Freddy and Eric de Ferret!

Saturday is with us and Old Two Legs is getting close to being up to date with all his stuff!

He always says that a two week holiday takes three weeks to sort out when you get back!

At least the paperwork is all done and now it is just the 'engineering' to do!

We got down to the beach this morning in time to see the mucky stuff sort of floating on the water, what we need is a good storm to beat it all up and wash it away down stream!

All this mucky stuff stops me having a swim!
 May and Eric had fun digging on the beach but even they said they wouldn't go in for a swim!

OTL has got a new dishwasher arriving on Sunday, so, this morning he disconnected the old one and put it outside on the drive so the delivery people can take it away!

He had to pay for that but it would be disposed of properly and also he has got them to take away the packing as well!

There is one small problem, the delivery times start at seven in the morning!

Never mind, we will be there to make sure everything is done properly or they will get a good woofing!

Lunchtime Freddy and Wendy came out with us. Wendy just loves a good run on the beach and digging holes and hunting for mouses as well!

Freddy, on the other paw, much prefers a carry down to the beach, a quick roll, then he gets OTL to pick him up and gets 'carries' all the way back to the football field where he gets down and has a run across the football field!

On the way back we spotted a snail half way up the bush with the red leaves. Holly asked the snail why he was so far up the bush and hanging onto the leaf?

'Well' says the snail, ' I've heard that we got the back end of the bad weather from the U.S.A. and I'm making sure I'm above the water and on something that floats if the water gets any higher'!

Holly pointed out that the snail was in fact so twenty metres above sea level and if the water should get up to him, half of the South East will be floating away on the tide!

.....I don't care, I'm staying warm and dry!
We left him to it and headed home!

Holly was singing a song........I am Snailing, I am Snailing, Home again, across the sea!

She can be a right wag at times!

We are off now to investigate what is for dinner and whether or not we can get a nibble!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss Wendy, Freddy and Eric de Ferret.

This slimming is a real drag!

Hi Woofers!

Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss Wendy, Freddy and Eric de Ferret back again!

It's been a sort of 'Middling' day today, nothing over exciting but 'Busy'!

Old Two Legs has been 'Manufacturing' so that has kept him out of our way! The problem we are having is that when he gets a cup of tea, there are no Chocolate Chip Cookies for Holly and I to snaffle!

I mean, that is one of life's little pleasures!

It's the same at lunchtime, like, what sort of woofer will eat a salad sandwich, made with brown bread, Yuk!

Talking of Yuk! This morning we got onto the beach to find a horrid sniffy load of stuff that had come down stream over the last tide!

Holly and I took one sniff and headed back up the beach!

I don't care wot it is, I'm staying well away!
 You know, even the ferrets said they were staying well up the beach and well away from the mucky stuff!
I wish the wind would change and blow it out to sea!
 We spotted Boo and Polly playing games on the Sea Wall. The game was, Let the Two Legs get ahead, then walk the other way!

Polly is very good at that and Boo is getting good as well!
Yo! OTL, what's that sniff?
 Miss Polly, as normal, was more interested in the ferrets and whether they tasted like chicken or not!
I would love a bit off the flank of the big one!
Eric said that if she cam onto the beach he would sort her out!

I almost think that he would 'cos he is always trying to give Holly and I a 'Nip' if we hang about too long!

Lunchtime there were a couple of woofers who had been in for a paddle in the yucky stuff and sniffed terrible!

They were put on their leads to stop them from getting too yucky!

That'll teach them!

But we only wanted a little paddle!
 Miss Wendy and Freddy enjoyed a dig in the sand and a run along the Sea Wall but as normal, Freddy said he had a thorn in his paw and needed a cuddle!

I can feel a Sore Paw coming on!
Back home we were given a half a carrot each. I offered mine to OTL 'cos that is all he is allowed during the day time!

He wasn't amused!

The Missus is out at the village hall for some more glue slapping, so, that means we could be in luck and raid the kitchen cupboards for some Cookies!

Bye bye for now!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss Wendy, Freddy and Eric de Ferret.

A Day for Having a Roll!

Hi Woofers!

It's us again, Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss Wendy, Freddy and Eric de Ferret!

Now, you know wot today is?

Yes! It's Archie Babes Mums Birthday and she is all of Dumpty Dump Years old!

So, if you are all sitting in a line, tails straight, one paw raised.

After three, ........One, ........Ninety Nine........Three!

Happy Birthday to Yooooooo!
Have a roll in some Poooooo!
Now share your cake with your mates!
Happy Birthday to Yooooooooooooooooo!

Yeah! Woofing Good Day! Kebab and Chips Tonight?

We have had a good day, well, loads of sniffs for all the woofers!

We landed on the beach a little earlier than normal and the gulls were still paddling in the rock pools.

Never mind the woofers, find me a worm!
First Miss May found a sniff on the beach and had a really good roll in it!

This is just right for a little ferret like me!
 After she had finished I went to see what it was.

I found a crabs arm and claw buried in the sand and as I was about to try it out, Old Two Legs told me to leave it alone!

Spoil Sport!

Through the morning the sun started to shine through the clouds and by the time we went out for our midday walk it was all bright and beautiful!

Sunshine at Last!
 Holly made the most of the sunshine and found the rest of the cram and gave it a good rolling!

Ooooh! That feels sooooo gooood!
 On our way off the beach OTL spotted this very small spider sitting on the hand rail. He said his name was Cedric De Spyder and he has taken over possession of the hand rail!

We asked what would happen if a Two Legs tried to use the handrail?

I'll bite their paw off and beat them with the soggy end!
That's one very brave spider!

We are now off to see what is for dinner, OTL's not ours!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss Wendy, Freddy and Eric de Ferret.

Wednesday already and we still haven't caught up with the sniffs!

Hi Woofers!

Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss Wendy, Freddy and Eric de Ferret here.

Wot a misty old day it's been today!

We got out good and early 'cos Old Two Legs had a load of work planned for today and he decided to get the ferret cages cleaned good and early. Not that the ferrets allowed that, as soon as they got out they proceeded to play ferret games like, 'Nibble the Toes' or 'Giss More Ferretone' which all involves OTL stopping the cleaning and paying attention to what they want!

Down on the beach it was very misty first thing, nothing interesting to see and no ships going past either!

I see no ships!
Mind you, we couldn't even see Sheerness either!

Wot we did see were the colours of the bushes by the side of the path, even in the misty light they still looked very autumnal!

Yep!  Autumn is a coming!
We didn't get any improvement in the mist when we went out at lunchtime, Sheerness poked its nose out from the mist but didn't stay long!

There! Look! It's Sheerness waving back!
 OTL decided to leave the misty bits alone and look for any bright colours he could find. He spent some time chasing a butterfly around but it wouldn't settle long enough for him to take a photo, so, he had to settle for the wild 'Sweet Pea' sort of plant by the side of the path.

Mind you, it wasn't easy 'cos there was a breeze blowing and that was making the blossom move about something terrible!


Just stop for a second or two!
 We got to the beach and although the tide was out, Holly and I had some fun rolling in the sniffs on the beach.

Most of the sniffs were of dead crab or whiffy limpet!


I just Looooove a Gooood Roll!
 Holly decided to tart about on the beach and kept of running up to OTL saying ' Take my Picture, Take my Picture'!


.....................................and this is my 'smiley face' so, Take my Picture?
Back home OTL got a few orders all packed and ready to go to the carriers, so that was another job jobbed!

Tomorrow he is expecting to see a delivery of some more stuff that he will need to work on before sending them off to the carrier!

It's all go it is!

Now, all this diet stuff is getting very boring. Every time OTL gets lunch it ends up being ham sandwich with a mountain of salad, not the most appetising lunch a woofer could have, I mean, have you tasted those onions? Do you know what a plate full of radishes will do to your backside?

Enuff of these things, we are wondering what is for dinner tonight, something fattening if we are lucky!

See you all tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss Wendy, Freddy and Eric de Ferret.

Busy catching up on the sniffs and other important things!

Hi Woofers!

Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss Wendy, Freddy and Eric de Ferret here!

Today has been fun, we have been out down the beach and catching up on the sniffs and picking out the new woofer 'Markers' all along the paths!

The ferrets say they have picked up a sniff trail from a family of Weasels who have moved into the area!

Old Two Legs has been catching up on his work and trying to get 'In Tune' with his new computer and the accountancy package, which is still confusing him!

I said he should let Eric have a go at setting it up but OTL says that Eric would make a bigger mess than anyone we knew!

Freddy enjoyed the lunchtime walk. Well, he didn't walk really, most of the time was spent cuddled up in OTL's arms just watching the world go by!

Mind you, he did get down onto the beach and got going on his favourite pastime.

Sunbathing!

Miss Wendy said he was just being a lazy ferret and said she was off to do some digging in the sand!

No, I've got better things to do!

 Not that it bothered Freddy, he just lay there, on his back and getting a sun tan on his paws!



There's nothing like warm paws!
 After his paws warmed up enough he got OTL to carry him back to the football pitch where he waddled across the field, getting OTL to pick him up just before he got to the car!

Back home Freddy fell asleep as soon as he got into his cage and he has only woken up once for a drink!

We never got a kebab last night, the shop was shut on Monday! I don't think that we will get one tonight either 'cos today OTL has been fed rabbit food for breakfast followed by brown bread and salad sandwich at lunchtime and now we can't sniff any cooking, so that more than likely means..........cheese salad tonight.

YUK!

I can see it will affect us woofers 'cos I mean with no nibbles we will just fade away!

Mind you, I like the idea that a kebab is really a healthy meal 'cos it has salad with it!

Something tells me that The Missus wouldn't agree with that!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss Wendy, Freddy and Eric de Ferret.

Monday, 25 September 2017

We're back!

Hi Woofers!

Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss Wendy, Freddy and Eric de Ferret have all arrived back home, safe and sound!

We got woken up by The Missus at six thirty this morning! She was marching up and down the caravan, opening and closing doors putting stuff in the 'Traveling' place in the caravan so whatever it is doesn't get thrown about and damage the woodwork!

We didn't bother with breakfast, except the ferrets who said they would fade away if they didn't have food on a regular basis!

Holly and I are like that, but it must be the food that Old Two Legs or TM has 'cos that always tastes better than our Scoff!

Hey! Seems like I have made another whoopsy, I can't get my Missies, Mollies and Millies all mixed up!

I blame it on TM, she has a way of getting us all confused and mixed up!

So, we will settle on Miss Mollie unless we get told otherwise!

We have been out down the beach this afternoon to check out the sniffs and there are loads of new ones we came across!

OTL wouldn't let me go in swimming and to be honest, looking at the size of the waves I don't think I would have enjoyed it!

The caravan has now been unloaded and most of the stuff is put away, OTL is looking at the loads of emails that have come in, sorting out the rubbish from the orders!

TM says we are going to have a kebab tonight 'cos she and OTL are going on a diet!

It is going to be a 'Salad' sort of diet and the kebab is the 'Last Goodbye' to tasty food and onto 'Green Food' with no chips!

OTL weighs in a ninety two kilogrammes which is just over his BMI (Body Mass Index) and if he can lose a bit from around his tummy, he'll be a happy puppy!

TM is keeping quiet about her weight, so we expect her to tell fibs about how much she has lost!

OK, must go, the kebab shop has opened!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss Wendy, Freddy and Eric de Ferret.

A day for packing!

Yo! Woofers!

Us again, Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss Wendy, Freddy and Eric de Ferret!

OK, first things first..............................sooooooory Miss Millie, I dunno why I put Miss Molly maybe it was a sort of Miss Milly Molly Moo!

You know, we know a ferret with that name!

Today it has been a 'packing day' 'cos we are heading off home tomorrow. The Missus has been moving all her craft stuff from the awning into the caravan, on the bed actually and the poor ferrets have bee moved to the back of the car!

The back door of the car is open and the ferrets have been having fun watching the comings and goings of everyone on site setting up or shutting down!

It's a good job these Two Legs can't speak ferret or Freddy and Eric would get reported for saying rude things!

TM has been giving her orders, as usual, OTL hasn't been listening, as usual!

Lunchtime TM got out some bacon and six rolls meaning to make some bacon rolls. OTL headed off to take the ferrets for a walk before lunch.

He got back to TM mumbling some dark and terrible curse upon the gas cooker 'cos it had burnt three of the rolls.

'Don't worry' says OTL, there is another three in the pack.

TM looks of all sort of sheepish and says 'No there isn't, I burnt them earlier'!

So, OTL has been trying to eat his Bacon Rolls, trouble is, the rolls are too hard to bite into and the bacon is like roof slate! He now is getting worried 'cos he thinks the very expensive bridge he had put in might just shatter into a thousand pieces!

I think we are going out for some 'Fish & Chips' tonight!

The awning is now taken down and packed away in the back of the car with the ferrets!

I think Holly and I will be left in the caravan when OTL heads off to get dinner tonight!

Last night was good, the Plawns were super and the Plawn Clackers were very nice, in fact Holly and I made little pigs of ourselves and kept asking OTL for another one!

In the end he said 'no' and called us greedy! Us! Greedy? Never!

One good thing about tomorrow, it won't take us very long to get home, I reckon three hours maximum, unlike the journey back from Gretna!

Hey, sorry to hear that Michael gas got Sue's cold. You know a could doubles in intensity as it gets passed on, so Michael's cold is twice as bad as Sue's! 

All together now...............................................................................Poor Michael, aaaaaaaaah!

See you all tomorrow when we get home!

Bye bye for now.

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss Wendy, Freddy and Eric de Ferret.

We Get There, sort off!

Hello Woofers!

Here we are again, Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss Wendy, Freddy and Eric de Ferret!

Well, after all the plans and plots and floods and stuff, today there was nothing stopping us heading off to Corfe Castle for a visit.

Except............................!

Well, first Old Two Legs had to clean out all the cages, walk the ferrets, talk to a couple who had heard we had ferrets in the caravan and answer all the normal questions regarding ferrets and their habits!

Holly said we should tell them that ferrets smell and will bite your paw if you put it anywhere near their nose!

Miss May said she would tell everyone about Holly's habit of polluting the air with her 'Butt Trumpets'!

Finally when they had all gone we headed out to the car.

On the way we came across The Missus looking a little upset, you see she had sat down on the wooden chair in the awning to do some crafty stuff and the chair sort of, 'Fell Apart'!.

This is the second chair she has 'destroyed' and we are quickly running out of awning furniture!

OTL decided to get going before he ended up doing a 'Repair Job' that might involve him going to the Hardware Shop again!

No, he's not getting his tools out again, we're going out!
We got going and left TM grumbling about having to move all her stuff inside the caravan!

Corfe Castle isn't too far away and OTL found a car park who were only charging £3.10 an hour!

Cheek!

We looked over the wall and spotted the castle. Holly said it didn't look too impressive 'cos half of it was missing!

Not a lot left!
 We thought it may be more interesting close up so we headed around to the entrance where we came upon two signs.

One was the price list £9 per visit!

Nine pounds to see a pile of old bricks?

The second notice was.....................................NO DOGS!

Nine Quid and no dogs? You know what you can do with that!
 We decided to have a wander around the village and see what we could see. As we were walking down the high street, I suddenly had need of a poo, so I did one in the middle of the road and held up all the traffic while OTL picked it all up!

Just around the corner looks like a good place for a poo!
 OTL suggested that we head back and go for a run on Kimmeridge Beach. You bet! One of the best bits was we didn't have to pay for car parking again!

OTL liked that!

Holly Chops getting her paws wet!
 We were allowed off the lead and I found a bit of wood that OTL tossed into the water for me to play 'Chase the Stick'!

It was great fun jumping in off the rocks!

Periscope Up!
Back at the caravan we both got a good rub down with the Doggy Towel and a brush to get rid of the sand where Holly and I had a roll on the beach!

Tonight we are off to get a Chinese Take Away with Plawns and Plawn Clackers!

Yum! Yum!

Hey, Archie Babe, say Hello to Millie for us!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss Wendy, Freddy and Eric de Ferret.

Friday, 22 September 2017

It's Corfe Castle tomorrow, on account of the Deluge!

Hi Woofers!

Us again, Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss Wendy, Freddy and Eric de Ferret!

Now, you know we were going to see Corfe Castle today? Well, we nearly got there!

You see it all started off this morning as Old Two Legs, Holly and I hadn't got up yet and were looking on the Internetty Thing Googling Corfe Castle and looking at all the pictures of the place.

The Missus sort of marched down the caravan heading for the bathroom, loo and shower.

She came flying out of the bathroom saying it was 'Flooded with Water'! Then she went on about the end of the world and plagues of locust and frogs and a wet carpet!

We weren't too sure what was troubling her more, the frogs or the flood or the wet carpet!

This caravan of ours has a thing about water, if it's not the pump then it's a leak in the system somewhere!

OTL got up, had a wash, in cold water, 'cos TM had forgotten to switch the water heater on!

OTL was not happy!

He doesn't do cold water, especially first thing in the morning!

So, armed with his trusty head torch strapped to his bald spot he dives under the bed and starts to investigate.

Dry floor under the kitchen sink, so, no problems there.

Dry floor around the water pump, no problems there either.

Wet floor around the water tank! Here be the problem!

Well, it seems that there is a leak in the elbow joint where the water comes into the water tank and the leak is only noticeable when the tank is full to the top, like wot it was last night!

So, drip by drip the water found its way out of the tank, and, because the caravan has a slight tilt backwards 'cos we are parked on the side of a mountain, all the water headed back to the bathroom!

This is where TM comes into the picture with the notification that we were 'Flooded with Water'!

So, the bed was stripped of its mattress and stuff so OTL could get under the bed to sort out the leak and after one or two goes decided in the end he had to get some special sealant from the man in the hardware shop in town!

When he got back to the caravan he crawled back under the bed and started slapping the sealant where sealant needed to be slapped and made it look so professional!

Danger! OTL at work!
Tomorrow we plan to visit Corfe Castle, unless the caravan gets struck by lightening or is buried under a ton of locust eating frogs!

You never know, anything can happen down here!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss Wendy, Freddy and Eric de Ferret.
