It's that Computer Again!

Hi Woofers!

It's Monday so that means work again!

A big woofer welcome from Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss Wendy, Eric de Ferret and Monty de Ferret!

Now, all this work the Two Legs get involved with is a real pain in the tail. I mean, there is Archie Babe with the Phantom Limp which is some serious stuff and Old Two Legs is making up new names for the computer!

I mean, Archie Babes limp is so serious that he should be fed on treats all day!

We were out early this morning, something to do with The Missus getting up at three thirty and running around the house switching lights on and off!

The good thing about that is we did manage to get some pre-sunrise shots!

This is the best of the shots and the sun is still under the horizon!
The ferrets have been swapping between the new hammocks and under the blankets and it is just amazing what sort of positions they get into!

Eric in front and Miss May is upside down!
 Ferrets will sleep for a long time the suddenly jump up, dash around the cage, having a scratch at the same time the return to the bed and cuddle up again!

'Wossat on the floor?'   'Dunno, have you done anything'? 'No, what about you?' 'Might have done'  'OTL will clear it up''
The weather has been warm so the ferrets have enjoyed their run along the Sea Wall and I managed to get a quick paddle in the sea before OTL got too upset!

Mind you, ferrets do get thirsty after their run and both Holly and I have to wait until they have had a drink before we get a chance of a slurp!

Come on, hurry up there are a couple of Woofers breathing down my neck!
Getting back to the computer, OTL says that the trouble is, ........ he put a twelve bit password in the machine and now cannot remember what it was! I mean, wot a Bozo, mind you it was about twenty four years ago!

He has spent all afternoon going through the memorable passwords and a few rude ones as well!

Still no success so it looks like he could be stuck with a mysterious password for a while!

I can sniff food so I'm off for a scoff!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss Wendy, Eric de Ferret and Monty de Ferret!

A Sunny Sunday!

Hi Ho Woofers!

Us again!

Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss Wendy, Eric de Ferret and Monty de Ferret!


Well, today there have been no Dog Mountains to scare us and we have had a relaxing day.


The Missus was up early to watch the F1 Racing while Holly and I joined Old Two Legs for a
pre-get-up snooze!


Being a Sunday, there was no one on the Sea Front and the sun was still in bed!


The early morning glow!
Eric cuddled up to OTL until it was time to get down and run back to the car! It was lucky that there was little or no dew on the grass, so no wet tummy today!


Back home it was that time when all the ferret bedding got changed and instead of cuddle cups, OTL put in the corner hammocks where both ferrets can climb inside and have snoozy cuddles!


By the time it was finished it was lunchtime and we were due to be off to the the Sea Front again but this time with Monty and Wendy.


The wind had blown away all the clouds and fog so all that was left was the sun shine!


Young Monty was first down and ferreting in the grass looking for interesting 'Ferret Stuff'!


I sniff Weasel Bum!
Of course what he means is Weasel Poo!


We had a good run back to the car and we only saw one woofer, a tourist, but it made a change not to be bothered by Weekend Woofers!


Back home we all sat down to watch the F1 racing that TM had recorded.


It was a very interesting race and we just loved the excuses and blame shifting the drivers do to justify crashing or being shoved off the track!


We have noticed that the ferrets love their corner hammock and it looks cute when they are both sleeping in the hammock with their heads poking out of the entrance hole!


OTL says he is going to get a picture of both sets of ferrets like that!


OK, we are off to see what is for dinner and also what OTL is going to get 'cos we like a varied diet, you know Doggy Scoff and Two Leg Scoff!


See you tomorrow!


Luv,

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

Another Foggy Morning!

Hi Woofers!

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


It's Saturday so that is Fun Day!


The ferrets were up early rattling on the cage doors, Old Two Legs was awake early (03:30!) but Holly and I kept snoozing until it was time to go out!


When we got to the Sea Wall what did we see?


Loads of Fog!
You know we couldn't even see the fort in the middle of the Medway never mind Sheerness!

Eric enjoyed his cuddle down to the Sea Wall but had to ask me for a lift to get up the steps!

Like, I'm going to let him anywhere near my ears! He is too fond of giving Holly and I a quick nip if we get in his way!

On your bike Bro' ask OTL he's mug enough!
 OTL did give him a lift and also took this picture of me looking good!

Now, don't I just look great!
Back home Holly and I hit the sack for an hour or so while OTL did the poo shovelling!

After the ferrets were tucked up in their beds we watched a bit of the F1!

Lunchtime the fog had been blown away, mind you, it wasn't a very strong wind but it did it's job!

Now with all that fog blown away we can see wot is sneaking up on us and boy was we glad 'cos out of nowhere came this mountain of a woofer!

It was the size of a horse with big slobbering mouth and teeth that could rip your tail off and I bet that it was fed on dead ferrets and hefferlumps and little woofers like us!

It was mean and evil looking and on top of that it was so hungry it was dribbling!

Fee Fie Foo Fum!
 It came bounding down the hill towards us roaring its head off and  grinding its teeth!

Two Woofers followed by Ferrets for afters!
As this thing got nearer OTL says in his best woofer voice.........'Hello Woofer!'

That was it, one look at OTL and this meat eating mountain jumped back, turned on its tail and dashed off back to its Two Legs wot was walking along the top path!

It's a good job that OTL's Woofer Language is only really understood by us 'cos what he said could be translated as.......'Any closer and I'll rip yer legs off'! 

Down on the Sea Wall Wendy said that she could have sorted the woofer out by choking it as it tried to eat her!

We all said that was wishful thinking on her part!

I'll dig my claws into it's tongue an tickle it's tonsils with my tail!
As I said, it was OTL who saved the day, but don't tell him!

We had a relaxing afternoon watching the F1 Qualifying wot The Missus had recorded this morning. After that OTL watched the final episodes of Stargate SG1!

Today we had chicken, so tonight we are looking forward to doing some serious mugging on OTL for the meat on his dinner plate, not the rabbit food salad, just the meat!

Now, wot's all this about Izzy's dad working all night? Sound like the stuff that OTL used to do when he first started to work for himself!

Mind you, these computer things are a real problem when they go wrong, I have to get Holly to sort out this laptop when it gets the wobbles!

Now, I can hear TM unloading all her stuff from the Master Class so we are off to give her a Woofers Welcome!

See you tomorrow.

Luv,

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

And it was Foggy Foggy to!

Hi Woofers!

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

This morning was the foggiest I have seen it on the Sea Front this year! I mean, if I looked behind I reckon I wouldn't see the end of my tail!

Like it was all Fog Lights all the way to the Sea Shore!

We got to the shore and heard a horrible low loud moaning coming from out to sea! I said it could be Heeland Haggis wot has followed us down to the South Coast but Holly said it was more than likely to be a Beluga Whale with a tummy upset from drinking the Thames water!

Old Two Legs said it was a ship sounding off its fog horn but we prefer the Beluga with the grumbly tum!

That's a Beluga with The Grumbles!
 OTL got all artistic and tried some shots of the spiders web but to be honest, there weren't many and on top of that they weren't that impressive!


Well, it's web but we've seen better!
 When we came down the ea Front at lunch time it was still foggy and the Beluga was still making the noise it did this morning, that must be a really sore tummy he has now!


This fog makes the grass all wet!
 Wendy and Monty came with us but made a big thing about getting back into the ferret bag 'cos the grass was making their tummies all wet!

Back home OTL had to go out delivering stuff so Holly and I decided to stay at home.

We had some fun when he came back, you see he parked the car out front while Holly and I gave him our big Welcome Home woof. Then he took the plastic bins around the back and came in the back door.

Holly and I were still woofing out the front window while OTL was sneaking in the back door!

Crafty OTL, but good fun all the same!

I think we are on Doggy Scoff tonight, no sniffs of chicken being cooked, never mind, it's Saturday tomorrow so that means F1 racing and paws up on the sofa until The Missus comes back from he Village Hall, if she is going of course!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

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

Another Sun Shiny Day!

Hello Woofers!

It's the Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss Wendy, Eric de Ferret and Monty de Ferret Show!

Well, sort of anyway!

A calm start to the morning, no wind, no rain, no howling gales! A sure sign we are back in the South East of England!

Miss May declined a run out this morning saying she was just too comfortable in bed! Mind you, young Eric was all up for a run and managed to get into his travelling cage before Old Two Legs had a chance to get the harness on Eric Babe!

Down on the Sea Front the sun was still in bed when we arrived!

Wakey wakey sun shine!
 Eric said that he wanted to get a bit higher so he could see the sun before us but by the time he got up the step the sun had got out of bed!

Ooh! This stone work don't half scrub your claws!
Just in time it happened, POW! The sun exploded out of the horizon and Eric was jumping up and down with delight!


Pow! and there is Eric's morning sun!
 It was OK watching the sun come up but Eric has short legs and on these mornings the grass is very wet so poor Eric ends up with a wet tum!

That is where OTL comes in handy, Eric asks for a lift, gets cuddled up in OTL's arms and manages to dry his tummy before demanding to be put back on the ground where he runs over the grass getting his tummy wet again!

Get the picture?

Lunchtime is a different story 'cos by then the grass has dried off so Wendy and Monty have no problems with wet tummies!

Mind you, young Monty is very interested in learning all about 'Woofer Sniffs' as he calls them but we think he would rather enjoy Ferret Sniffs!

Go on, tell me all about the sniff before I try it!
 Monty found the Mole Hole again and enjoyed a little dig while Holly and I found a sniff to roll in!

Monty spotted us and alerted OTL to what we were doing, so, bang goes our roll!

Oi! Can I come over and have a roll as well?
Things have been busy this afternoon for OTL, seems his customers have missed him while he has been away and are making up for it by sending him orders!

Tomorrow we have the Accountant Man coming to visit and there is something wrong with the accounts package but OTL says the man will fix it!

We got chicken tonight, that means first we mug OTL then after all his dinner has gone, we start on ours!

Bye bye for now.

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss Wendy, Eric de Ferret and Monty de Ferret!



Wednesday, 3 October 2018

It's a Good Day today!

Hi Woofers!

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

Hey, now wot's all this name calling? Jabba The Mutt? If I was you I'd get out the wet tail and have a good shake while sitting on the sofa!

That'll sort them out!

We have the Highland Chinese every time we pass through Gretna but sometimes arrive on a Monday when the place is shut, so it's Bangers and Chips all round!

However, if we don't want sausages, there is always Haggis in Batter!

Back home here has been a good day. Old Two Legs has finally finished the paperwork so all is ready for the accountant geezer wot 'Does Things' with all the information, he is turning up on Friday morning to collect it all.

We had the Star Wars DVD arrive yesterday called Solo, is planning to watch it tonight and try to stay awake, unlike the last time he tried to watch it and fell asleep!

We are getting back to normal now, the ferrets are coming out with us for a walk and this morning Eric found the hole where the mole has been throwing earth up above ground.

Lunchtime Wendy and Monty were out with us and they found the hole as well!

They were both into the hole and digging like true ferrets!

A little grubby around the nose!
 Of course it was Monty in first but Wendy soon got the sniff and was digging like mad!

Shove over Weasel Chops I want a share!
It was good to see them having a run through the grass and up the steps, mind you, Monty will have to grow a bit before he can climb up!

I really need a ladder here!
This afternoon we have spent snoozing on our beds and keeping OTL company. Pretty soon all will be tidy and OTL can finish off sorting out the piles of magazines that he keeps meaning to read!

We look like we have Doggy Scoff tonight so, just like Archie Babe, the scoff will be with us!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

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

Home Again!

Hi Woofers!

Here we are, back again, Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss Wendy, Eric de Ferret and Monty de Ferret.

Well, the trip back was long and boring, I mean, it was so boring we slept almost all the way back. Except for the Wee 'n' Poo stop on the M6 Toll Road Service Station.

It is the only service stop we have found with a proper area for us doggies and is around half way between home and Gretna!

We pull in there and park up with the big trucks and Old Two Legs gives us all a walk, woofers and ferrets!

OTL said it was about four hundred miles from Gretna to our home and pulling the caravan made him just a little tired by the time we parked up on the drive!

Holly and I did the inspection of the house and garden, just to make sure it was all as we had left it while OTL and The Missus emptied all the stuff out of the caravan.

OTL said that if he stopped he would fall asleep and not wake up until tomorrow!

Today, we have been putting away all the stuff while OTL has been catching up on all the post that arrived by postman and Email!

It's amazing just how much rubbish there was!

There was also some orders that needed to be made up and by the time this evening came OTL had got them all ready to send off to the carrier tomorrow.

There was a letter from the doctors telling OTL to make an appointment to get stabbed with the flu vaccination, so an appointment was made for the wend of the month. OTL says that there is a new flu virus going around that is different from last year but they can't get the correct flu vaccination so he has to have the stuff from last year!

The ferrets have had a run out, well except Miss May who is now a little old lady, so she stays in bed while young Eric comes out with us!

We reckon that by the end of this week OTL should have caught up with all the paperwork and stuff and we'll be back to normal,  almost!

We're going to have another early night tonight, I think we all need a snooze after the holiday!

Like Archie Babe, we didn't get any sausages, just Doggy Scoff but we did have some Chinese in Gretna, Plawn Clackers and King Plawns as well!

TM got her bottle of Bubbly Giggle Juice as well, I mean, she was almost tiddly by the time she had finished the bottle!

See you tomorrow and we may even get a picture or two!

Hey, have you seen Eric nicking a bag of 'Smoothies'?


Eric and the Smoothie Bag

Luv,

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

On our way back!

Hi McWoofers!

McDaisy, MacHolly, McMay, MacWendy, Eric McFerret, and Monty MacFerret Here!

We have had a super time up in the Highlands, we have observed several different types of rain.

There is the Dribbly Sort, that is the rain that runs down your neck and gets under your collar and gets cold as the wind blows.

Next there is the Misty Rain, that is the stuff given off by the low clouds as they come in off the mountains and make you wet all over. Normally a good shake gets rid of it but if you brush up under a bush or some Two Legs tries to stroke your back, it then goes right the way through to you skin and that gets cold again!

After that comes the Steady Rain, that's the stuff that comes down and soaks you to the skin, no messing about, it washes through any rain coat you may have on and travels all the way to your tummy and down your legs, not a very nice rain!

Another rain is the Blaster Rain, this rain is normally coming at you horizontally, it comes from the sides and the back but the worse one is from the front! It's the rain that you can follow a rain drop that smacks into your nose and because of the force of impact, runs up your muzzle, over your eyes, around your ears, down your spine and launches it's self from your tail with almost the same force as when it landed on your nose!

We especially don't like that rain!

Mind you, the best rain is the one that is down wind and running away from you leaving loads of sunshine!

Now, we love being up in the Highlands, loads of new sniffs and especially the sights. I mean, we have seen plastic Seals outside the Sea Life Centre but no real Seals inside. Then there are the 'Out of World visitors. If you look carefully, you will find them all over the place, even down south where we come from. However, we saw this tourist posing for a picture and Old Two Legs was ready with his camera!

How do I get a postcard back to Vulcan?

Can we send this by SMS or maybe WhatsApp?
You just never know what you are going to meet!

At the moment we are sitting in the caravan in Gretna, The Missus has wandered off to the Co-op to get some Doggy Scoff for us tonight, however, Holly and I know there is a Chinese around the corner, so Scoff will be the last on the menu!

Plawn Clackers and King Plawns Tonight!

We arrived in the pouring rain but since we have been here the sun has come out and it's dry every where!

 Next is a trip to the Designer Centre, OTL will have a look for some new winter trousers while TM will be looking at the Craft Shop!

Tomorrow we will be off at seven in the morning, nice and early so we don't hit too much traffic , being a Monday and all that!

So, we will see you tomorrow night, providing of course we don't hit any traffic jams!

Bye bye for now.

Luv,

McDaisy, MacHolly, McMay, MacWendy, Eric McFerret, and Monty MacFerret!

Success!

Here we are!

McDaisy, MacHolly, McMay, MacWendy, Eric McFerret and Monty MacFerret.

Well, after a couple of hours sitting in the car watching the parking attendant's walk past, we have finally found Wi-Fi!

Next is to find a fish and chip shop for some sausages and chips!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

McDaisy, MacHolly, McMay, MacWendy, Eric McFerret and Monty MacFerret.

A Fishy Day Today!

Helloooo McWoofers!

Us again, McDaisy, MacHolly, McMay, MacWendy, Eric McFerret and Monty MacFerret.

We have been on an adventure today, a Sealife Centre!

Yes, loads of wrigly tnings with no legs!

We have passed this place many timme when we have been going out expoloring and today we decided to have a look at the place.

The signs said that there were Otters there, a sort of ferret who loves water and fish! Also there are Seals and loads of other sea creatures.

We got to the entrance only to see that the Otter, Lewis, had unfortunatly died of old age so the Otter Enclosure was closed, sorry!

Not to worry, there is plenty more to see!

We went looking for the seals but they were no where to be seen. It seems that the seals come in if they get rescued then they get fed and looked after until they are well enough to go back to the sea again.

The day we went all the seals had got better and had gone home, so, no seals!

There were loads of fishy type swimming around in circular water tanks, around and around and around and..........well it made us dizzy just looking at them!

Sort of Dizzy Fish!
There were sort of sharks and big flat fish the size of car tyres and wot Old Two Legs called Dog Fish but we renamed Woof Fish! 

My name is Sharky, fancy a swim?
There were Rays, a sort of flat fish with a tail, but they didn't move that much, in fact they didn't move so much that Holly said they were made of plastic and were put in to make up the numbers!

We saw some orangy fish that OTL called Clown Fish, they didn't look much like clowns, mind you, I've never seen a clown!

A Clown Fishy Thing!
 There was one very large tank that had a big flat fish called a Talbot, enormous it was and OTL said it could eat us up in one mouthful!

There was also some Red Squirrels in the trees, but 'cos there was so much rain pouring down, they were tucked up in their nests called a Dray!

So, we didn't see any squirrels!

Another sad thing was, the centre was closing down 'cos they couldn't make enough money from the visitors to keep the centre open. Now that's a shame 'cos where are the seals going to go if they get sick and need attention?

One good thing, while we were parked up in Oban, OTL found a Wi-Fi signal he could make contact with and gain Internetty Access!

Problem was, he didn't have the computer with us!

I can see he is planning a return trip to Oban, armed with enough change for the parking meter and with a bit of luck we can upload the blog!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

McDaisy, MacHolly, McMay, MacWendy, Eric McFerret and Monty MacFerret.
