Saturday Fun.


Hello Woofers!

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

Today we were up early 'cos Old Two Legs reckons it was going to be wet this morning, you know, rain!

We stuck our noses out of the curtain and yes, the ground was wet, but no sign of rain. We told Eric and he decided that he would go back to bed and have another snooze until Holly and I got back!

We didn't mind, at least the walk could be a bit quicker than our normal walk where we have to wait for him to catch up!

We left the camera at home 'cos the clouds were covering the sky and we just knew that the sun was still fast asleep!

Snuffling along the top path Holly was laughing about how all the ferrets were convinced that there were Nargles in the undergrowth amongst all the sniffs!

As we were passing one clump of bushes a little voice squeaked out that there were more than Nargles here in the dark places!

Well, that was it, Holly sat down with a thump and started to do her 'Deep Growl' which is reserved for strange woofers and things she doesn't like 'cos they may be dangerous!

It was then that we saw what had spoken!

I recognised it straight away, it was a Bowtruckle! Now we have never seen a Bowtruckle before and Holly was just a little concerned that it was dangerous to woofers! I did say that it was like a walking talking salad and just how dangerous can a salad be but Holly was being careful!

Nargles? It's Bowtruckles you have to be careful of!
I remembered that Bowtruckles could pick locks and stuff like that, very useful if you get locked in the loo!

I remember from the movie that there were other creatures as well, like  the Niffler who just loves shinny money and gold bars! Come to think of that, so does The Missus but she doesn't look like a Niffler!

A Junior Niffler looking for money!
Holly said that she doesn't ever get locked in the loo and all her savings were in Bitcoin so would be of no interest to Nifflers!

With that she was off looking for rabbits 'cos she reckons she knows how to deal with creatures like that and any way, who had ever heard of a talking salad!

By then the Bowtruckle had gone back into the undergrowth and I was busting for a wee, so I had other things on my mind!

Just for a change, we didn't take Wendy and Monty up to the village hall 'cos today Rosie wasn't doing any crafting and OTL wanted to watch the rugby match on the TV plus we also wanted to watch the F1 racing, so it was a race back home before it all started!

TM came back from her Master Class and gave us a present from Rocky, it was a birthday present that had a super sniff to it! We opened it up and found two packs of Doggy Sausages and some Woofer Chock Drops!

Guess what we will be nibbling tonight?

Talking of nibbles, I just fancy a Choc Drop, so, bye bye for now and see you all tomorrow!

Luv,

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

It's Friday, at last!

Hi Woofers!

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

We love Fridays, first of all it comes behind the weekend and on top of that, we sort of close the shop at midday.

Well, normally that's what we do but not today!

First thing the sun rise tried to be dramatic but sort of failed! Even after this picture the sun came up and sort of blasted all the colour from the sky!

It's the best we could get today!
 Back home it was off to bed while Old Two Legs cleaned cages and set about finishing off the 'Manufacturing'!

Well, he got tangled up in the computer and only half finished the manufacturing and of course, we needed a walk and a wee!

'Well, it's not mine, are you sure it's not yours?'
 The tide was in and Holly tried to get Wendy and Monty to go in for a swim but they are not daft, Wendy doesn't do water and Monty has never got his paws wet!

Hey, Weasels, fancy a swim?
 OTL suggested that maybe Holly Chops should go in for a dip in the water!

Holly then suggested I have a dip but it was even too rough for me!

On your bike Porky!
Back home OTL finally finished this 'Manufacturing' that has taken all week! Now the carrier has been booked to collect on Monday morning, so with a bit of luck we will be here to wave the pallet off!

The Missus is off to her Master Class so we have a 'restful' day planned, F1, nibbles and paws up on the sofa!

Now, what's this package? A squirrel from the garden? A pack of Love Hearts from the bottom shelve?

Holly keeps running to the door every time she hears a noise! Holly says it has to be edible and wonders if Archie Babe has tested it first?

Sounds intriguing!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

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

Another Hard Days Work, but not for us!

Hi Woofers!

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

Good News...........No Rain!

We love it when there is no rain, that means we can run in the grass without getting our tums wet!

Mind you, Eric got a little damp on the run back across the football field!

Old Two Legs is still 'Manufacturing' and reckons it will be tomorrow before he has finished, then maybe ship it all on Monday!

This morning we saw the sun poke its nose over the top of Leysdown. Not the most dramatic sunrise but 'intereting'!

Good Morning Sunshine!
 The sun stayed around all day and both Monty and Wendy had a good game of Hunt The Nargle!

I'm sure I saw one here yesterday!
 Holly on the other paw is convinced that Nargles are no more than a figment of OTL's imagination!


Oh Please, I mean, Have you ever seen one? OTL is just winding you up!
Wendy says that Holly is just an old misery guts and she is jealous 'cos she has never seen one!around the edge of the football field

Monty says he has a better job to do than chase Nargles, he is practising digging out Moles from the mole hills that have appeared  over the last few weeks.

Come on out or we'll send in the ferrets!
 Trouble is, as soon as the mole sees the ferrets they disappear down the Mole Hole and won't come out until we have gone!

Cowards!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

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

A wet one for us woofers!

Hello Woofers!

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

This morning we woke up to the gentle 'Pitter Patter' of rain drops lashing against the windows of the house, that plus the crashing of The Missus getting all 'Inspired' in the craft room!

Why does crafting have to be so noisy!

Eric was awake and so was Miss May but both of them declined the offer of a run along the sea front!

That didn't stop Old Two Legs from dragging Holly and I out for our morning constitutional!

He didn't take the camera but really it wasn't worth it anyway 'cos it was too dark, too wet and there was nothing to see anyway!

Lucky for us, OTL kept a weather eye open and was consulting the rain radar and just like him, he spotted a 'Window' in the weather, so, at eleven thirty we were of together with the ferrets Monty and Wendy.

'How's yer belly today?'  'Not Bad, yours OK?'  Yeah, feels OK today!'
 We got down to the beach to see a small yappy little Puppy making a terrible noise, I mean, just how much noise can one mini woofer make?

I'm orf, too much noise around here!
 We headed up the grass path followed by the ferrets and of course, Monty just had to try to be helpful!

'Hey! Yer bum looks OK today!' .....................'Thank you Monty, a little louder, they didn't hear that in Southend!'
 When we got back to the field there was evidence that the Moles had been at work again, Monty did his best to sort out the moles but no matter  how hard he dug he just couldn't find a mole!

Here Molly Mole, Monty wants to see you!
We met up with the three Basset Hound Types who scare the woof out of me but today they were well behaved. Their Two Legs gave OTL a ferret carry bag and some harnesses for the ferrets. They all looked brand new!

The TL used to keep ferrets and he had a load of ferret stuff in the cupboard that he reckoned could go to a good home, ours!

When we got home OTL tried a harness out on Wendy and it looks like it will just right for her. OTL says he will spend some time adjusting the harness so it won't come off the ferrets and then try them out on the football field behind our house!

Today OTL and The Missus headed off to the TL Vet to get stabbed with anti flu stuff. I suppose it is really like a worming tablet but the get stabbed instead of getting a pill buried in a cheese biscuit with some cream cheese dolloped on the top to hide it!

I know all OTL's tricks!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

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

Lucky Holly!

Hi Woofers!

Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss Wendy, Eric de Ferret and Monty de Ferret back with you again!

Well, last night we were ready for all those Whizz Bangs, Holly was tucked up on Old Two Legs lap with her blanket wrapped around her shoulders. I was next to her cuddled up close to make her feel safe.

What did we get?

Nuffin!

No Whizz Bangs at all, not even one!

Result!

Mind you, that doesn't mean they have finished, there is the weekend and there is bound to be some left over from last night!

We were a little late in getting down to the sea shore and when we got to the football field there was a layer of misty fog over the grass.

Spooky or wot?
 Mind you, when we got to the beach the mist had gone and the sun was hiding behind a bank of cloud!

Well, it's there but not sure where exactly!
 Lunchtime was fun, we got to the car park and there were woofers everywhere! I mean, loads of woofers chasing balls and playing chase all over the place!

Holly and I got to a safe spot and set about doing our 'Show Off Woof'!

Well, that was what we were doing while OTL was saying hello to several woofers he met on the path!

How about this for a woof!
 It was all OK 'cos We know these woofers and often meet them on the path!

OK OTL? Where are those soppy little woofers of yours?
 We were keeping out of trouble that's what we were doing!

Once they had headed off on their walk we caught up with OTL and were surprised to see the sea with all the mist and clouds gone!

Look! A ship!
 While Wendy and Monty were ferreting in the grass Holly was sitting on the Sea Wall trying to get me to have a dip in the water!

Come on, I just love it when you do your 'Deep Paddle' trick!
 I'm not that daft, I know she is trying to get me into trouble, again!

Back home it's Doggy Scoff again, you know I reckon these Two Legs only know two meals, chicken and scoff!

OTL is still working away so I suppose I'll have to go down and see if I can help, he loves that when I help him!

See you tomorrow.

Luv,

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

Whizz Bangs should be BANNED!

Hi Woofers!

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

I don't know about you lot but here in Godwin Towers little Holly has been scared silly by these fireworks being let off. She has been shivering and cuddled up with Old Two Legs on the sofa trying to hide away from the nasty things!

You see, when Holly was a little puppy, before she came to live with us, she had a scary time at a 'Party' that had loads of whooshing and banging fireworks which scared her rotten.

Ever since then, any firework sends her into panic mode!

Tonight looks to be the worse and OTL says he will turn the TV volume up and hopefully block the noise of some of the bangs. Mind you, there will always be the fireworks that get left over and get used next weekend but we are hoping that they are going to be greedy and all of the whizz bangs will go this week!

This morning we were out a little late in getting out and it was a little windy. Now windy doesn't bother Holly and nor does it me but Eric says he doesn't do wind or cold or wet!

Of course, that means he is cuddled up in OTL's arms while Holly and I search for sniffs!

The sunrise was, different, different but still interesting!

Well, under there is Leysdown!
 It was at that point Eric got put down so OTL can take a picture and looking over his shoulder, Eric said that the wind as well as the sun was coming in from Leysdown!

That's it, it's all coming from over there!
 When we got up the top of the grass path we found Bert was there waiting for Holly! There was nowhere Holly could go 'cos Bert was straight in her face and then he gave her a big lick on her nose!

I told you before, No Tongues!
 Holly did a quick flip of her tail and shot past him! of course, she was off her lead and Bert was on his lead so no game of chase then!

Come back! I haven't finished!
 Back home it was cage cleaning time, OTL is quite good at that and the ferrets help by making sure to poo on the ground floor only!

Lunchtime,it all changed, no wind, well atmospherically speaking but we can't say the same for Holly!

Yep! Holly still got the Grumbles! You know, she is even off her chicken!

Mind you, while I am typing this, she has pinched my Bonio!

Is that an earthquake or is it your belly rumbling?
Of course, it was Holly!

You know, we couldn't see the horizon, it was more of a dirty skid mark out to sea!

I see no ships, lighthouses or land!
This afternoon OTL was working again, he is just under half way through his manufacturing and we will all be glad when he finishes it!

OK, we are off to cuddle Holly chops before the Whizz Bangs start.

See you tomorrow.

Luv,

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

It's His Fault, Honest!

Hi Woofers!

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

Sorry about missing yesterday, well, we didn't miss it really, we were ready to go but Old Two Legs had been 'Cleaning Up The Computer'!

He has this program that he runs every week to clear out all the stuff that the computer makes during the week, you know, broken links, cookies and other stuff that slows the computer down. Now he is always looking for ways to speed the computer up and yesterday he found a little box that cleared up bits of memory that he hadn't noticed before, so, he ticks the box and 'Poof!' all his passwords that make the computer talk to the Internetty got zapped and sort of disappeared into thin air!

It took him hours to find all the passwords!

Finally, this morning, he found them and now we are back on line!

Eric was up early, we think it was The Missus clomping about loading up the boxes for the crop today.

Outside the weather was rather warm, in fact pleasantly warm!

The sunrise looked good as well.

On the path from the car park.
OTL managed to catch it just before the sun poked his nose  over the horizon and OTL reckons it is coming over the top of Leysdown-on-Sea on the Isle of Sheppy.

He knows everything, just like Holly!

Holly reckons it's Leysdown as well!
 OTL spent the morning cleaning cages and playing with the ferrets while Holly and I snoozed on the bed!

Holly wasn't feeling too well, she has the Grumbly Tum and it has reached her butt! I hope it's nothing that Archie Babe has had!

Mind you, I wasn't feel that bright either, so, our lunchtime walk was a little earlier than normal!

Wendy and Monty enjoyed themselves ferreting around in the grass looking for Nargles.

Hey! Seen any good Nargles yet?
 It didn't help when Monty walked up behind me and said I had a 'Klingon' on my butt! I mean, he didn't have to tell me in such a loud voice! A girls got feelings you know!

Hey Daisy, you got a dribbly Klingon on yer Butt!
 I don't know what he was thinking, I mean, it's not the first time he has seen one, he gets them from time to time if he doesn't lift his tail high enough and that Wendy has got OTL's attention when she gets skid marks up her tail!

OTL already knows and he will fix it later!
I don't know what it is that has upset Holly or even what has troubled my tum but let's say we were being 'careful' today!

Back home OTL got out the washing gear and a warm Doggy Towel and soon fixed us up!

Then, while Holly and I spent time looking out of the bedroom window, OTL was back to 'Manufacturing' and promised to leave the computer alone!

See you all tomorrow!

Luv,

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

It's Friday at Last!

Hi Woofers!

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

Wot a super day it's been today, first thing we were a little late getting out but the clouds had gone and the sun was up and the tide was as high as we've ever seen it, other than in storms!

and no wind either to blow it all about!
 Eric declined a walk down to the Sea Wall and stayed cuddled up in Old Two Legs arms until we were on our way back.

Mind you, the sunrise looked rather splendid and you could feel the sun on your tail!

Wot a Morning!
 Back home we had a big truck turn up with a load of gear that OTL has to do some work on. We can see him being busy for the next week at least and then after that it has to be packed up on a pallet and sent off to somewhere exotic!

We can see that Holly and I will have to amuse ourselves while he is busy!

Lunchtime Wendy and Monty were out for a run and the tide was going out so I didn't have a chance of a paddle.

Holly was telling the ferrets that anyone who wanted to have a swim in that water has got to have a tail loose 'cos it was not only muddy but it was full of fish poo and whelk wee!

...and there is absolutely no way I would ever go in that stuff over there!
That's the trouble with Holly, no sense of adventure!

Back home OTL left the ferrets in their travelling cage a little longer than normal and you should have heard the noise they made rattling the cage to come out!


Oi! What about us!
As I said, OTL was busy all afternoon 'Engineering' and grumbling that his back hurt 'cos he was lifting all the stuff up to the office.

He does show off sometimes!

I think we have got chicken tonight so we are off to see what The Missus is doing with the chicken, you know, burnt black or dark brown or brown or maybe golden roasted!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

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

Thursday, 1 November 2018

The rain did come and we got wet!

Hi Woofers!

The gangs back again, Daisy, Holly, Miss May, Miss Wendy, Eric de Ferret and Monty de Ferret!

Last night Holly was telling us that we had it all wrong, it's not Cat Racks it is Cattle Racks!

Now how you could get a cow in your eye is beyond me but Holly says she knows wot she is talking about!

I reckon she knows things but in this instance I might agree with Wendy when she says Holly is talking from under her tail!

Well, it hasn't been very nice today, I mean, it was raining when we woke up and it hasn't really stopped all day!

We left the ferrets at home first thing so we had Old Two Legs to ourselves for a change.

As soon as we got out of the car, we wanted to get back in!

It was not nice, it was wet, it was damp, it was yuck!

Back home we got the Doggy Towel treatment and then got wrapped up in a blanket and put on the bed to get over the shock!

Normally it is Eric who comes out in the morning but OTL said that as it was so wet he could stay in bed.

When it's raining this is the best  place to be!
Mind you, the rain seemed to dry up so OTL says it is Eric's chance of a run down on the shore.

Eric tried complaining but OTL insisted and off we went.

As we got closer to the car park, the rain started again, OK, maybe not so much but it was still wet!

Eric stayed inside the ferret bag and only poked his nose out every so often to get his nose wet then back down again!

When we got to the Sea Wall, OTL digs Eric out and says he can walk back to the car!

Do you realise just how uncomfortable it is dragging your tummy over cold, wet, concrete!
Well, he didn't move and he gave OTL such a look that OTL picked him up again!

When we got to the football field OTL tried to convince Eric that it was fun running through the wet grass.

It may be fun for you, you've got boots on!
 That was it, OTL had to pick up Eric again!

It was when we were twenty feet away from the car that Eric got down, did a wee and ran the last few feet to the car!

Back home we got another rub down with our Doggy Towels before heading up to our beds is OTL's room. With all the stuff he has in the office it was nice and warm and we soon were fast asleep!

OTL has been arranging for a man to come around to fix the rear light on the caravan where OTL reversed into the wall in the Gretna Green campsite, you would have thought that after all the years we have stopped there he would have known where the wall was!

Mind you, it won't be long before we get onto the Internetty Thing  to book our pitch. We do love that 'cos then we can slowly count down the weeks to our holiday.

But now, all we are doing is counting down to Christmas!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

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

Wednesday, 31 October 2018

Hello Woofers!

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

Hey! Guess wot? We saw the sunrise this morning!

Well, it wasn't really over the horizon but there was enough colour to make it worthwhile taking a picture! 

Good Morning Mr Sun!
Mind you, it was frosty, I mean, the windscreen was frozen and we had to sit in the cold car while the hot air was made and the ice melted!

Eric was not impressed and when we got to the sea front he was even less impressed! There was frost on the grass which made his paws cold and his tummy wet!

Is this obligatory?
OTL took pity on him and carried him all the way to the football field where he got down, had a quick poo and then ran all the way back to the car!

We were all glad to get back, except Old Two Legs who still has the job of cleaning out the cages before breakfast!

Lunchtime all the frost had gone and Monty found a mole sniff! We didn't tell him that the mole was a good twenty feet away shovelling earth into a big pile!

I can sniff it! I Can Sniff It! I CAN SNIFF IT!
In the end we had to drag him away and he showed off something terrible!

Down on the sea front he was still showing off, so, Wendy challenged him to a race back to the football field.

Monty was so desperate to get back that he started running on the count of TWO instead of THREE like wot he should!

One, Two, Oi!
 Mind you as Wendy knew, he couldn't get too far ahead 'cos they were on leads and OTL was in the middle holding him back!

Still, that didn't stop him from trying to chase Holly and I up the hill!

Come on shift yer tails, I'm on a mission!
Not that we took any notice!

Now, wot's all this about cat racks and head aches and eye balls? OTL says that when we are being naughty he gets head ache from shouting at us, mind you, we don't take any notice!

OTL's optician  did that trick, you know new glasses and come back in a year but he went back in six months, walked into the front door with a bang and said ere' I can't see!

It still took some time before he was called into the hospital to have his cat racks removed!

Now, one of his eyes has sort of gone back to just like it was when he had the cat racks, so, he has an appointment in the eye hospital for them to do some laser work on his eye! The only problem is the appointment is not until mid January!

OTL says that if he looks at the computer screen too much, he gets head aches, so we reckon there is a couple of cat racks left behind and they need to be chased away!

Dinner is calling, so we must be away, mind you it's only Doggy Scoff but OTL has been promised some meat and I can't take my pill unless it's wrapped up in meat!

Sneaky or wot?

See you tomorrow.

Luv,

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