Another Missed Bath!

Hi Woofers!

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

OK, stand to attention, get in line 'cos it is Uncle Mikes birthday today and did you know he is Numpty Nine years old?

Not bad for an old duffer like wot he is!

So, we have composed a special birthday song, just for him and we have included all the best bits he likes!

So, after 793..........................Ready?.............Steady?...............Seven, ninety THREE!

Happy Birthday to Yooo
Here's a bucket of Pooo
We all did it last night
Especially for Yooooooooooooo!

Now I bet you haven't had one like that before?


Nearly as good as Mike's sniff!
 Now you know all about the plant that Old Two Legs dug up yesterday? Well just look at this pile of roots. That is all one plant and OTL reckons there is more bits he may have missed, so he is going to go over it all again and re model the stones on the left 'cos it looks like a grave!

Just one plant!
We took the big camera out with us at lunchtime and caught up with a couple of Dragonflies who had landed to catch their breath!

Just look at the size of the eyes!
This one was much smaller but once it took of it went like a rocket!

Getting ready to go...................and
I missed out on the bath today, OTL says he plans to 'Do Me' on Saturday, so I'm wishing for rain and cold weather and anything that will stop him getting me all soapy and bald like!

Actually, I like this 'Rough' look!
Now, the delivery man came today and took away the laptop and OTL had to use the newest computer with Windows 10 on it and of course there is no photo processing program on it, so, he has downloaded Corel Paintshop Pro on a seven day free download, just to see how he gets on with it.

We have an idea that he may buy it in the end and keep it on the Windows 10 machine just to do my diary on, that is if he gets on with it of course!

See you tomorrow.

Luv,

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

Got away with it again!

Hi Woofers!

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

OK, after 17........one, six, seventeen!

Happy Birthday to Archie's Boy,
Can we play with his Birthday Toy?
Did he get a Take a Way for dinner?
And did he share it with Archie Boy?


OK, I know it's not the best song I ever wrote but we have been very busy today!

Well, actually it is Old To Legs wot has been busy.

It happened like this.

The Missus told OTL that she was inviting tenders for trimming a tree back and reducing the height of another tree that has gone wild plus two coats of paint on the shed!

About the time she was telling OTL, Number One Son, Martin, stopped off on his way home after spending a weekend away camping with some of his old (Pre Wedding) mates!

So, TM, Martin and OTL were standing in the garden discussing a plant that was trying to take over the pond and garden area. When, just to see what was under the leaves, OTL started to dig up the plant and after the leaves came these whacking great and long tubers.

As soon as he dug up one bit there was another bit and so on it went until it looked like half the garden and half the pond was dug up!

The piles of tubers grew to an enormous height and OTL was convinced that it was all just one plant as the roots just went on and on!

Well, OTL was getting sore from the sun and aching from the digging and dirty with mud from the mud and muck in the pond!

So, now we have a very tired OTL with a sore back and sore joints in his hands and we have run out of Paracetamol to ease the pain.

Holly and I have been in the garden giving OTL helpful suggestions and in turn he was giving us helpful suggestions!

He was out in the sun working and we were relaxing in the shade!

No pictures today, for some reason the telephone won't send pictures to the computer, I can see that we will have to go back to the camera for our fix of photo's!

See you all tomorrow!

Luv,

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

YES! There is a Woofer God!

Hi Woofers!

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

Well, I am all excited and jumping around all over the place. You see, today is the day Old Two Legs has scribed on the calendar, 'Dogs Haircut'!

Things did not look good, overnight it rained, not that we were worried, we were all tucked up in bed snoring our tails off, however, by the time we woke up the rain had stopped and it was just the grass that was wet.

That was it, doomed we were, Old Two Legs got the doggy towels out and found the shampoo, then he got the table out of the shed and the frame that will hold the straps to keep us woofers from jumping off the table!

OTL decided to start off with Holly 'cos she had more hair and some of it was matted around her paws.

Into the shower compartment she went and OTL turned on the water and Holly got wet.

Holly was not happy but just as the water was soaking through her hair and reaching her skin when it happened.

The shower went 'Phutt'

It was lucky that OTL had filled the bucket up with water 'cos he used that to finish off washing Holly from the tip of her nose to the end of her tail!

Well, in the end Holly got washed, then she got dried with that blower thingy, then she got shaved!

In the end she lost a load of hair and looked quite slim, for a Holly Dog that is!

Now, all this means that I did not get washed or shaved 'cos the shower is broke!

OTL is off to purchase a bucket of super glue to fix a bit in the workings of the shower 'Engine'.

Mind you, that means I could get 'done' tomorrow.

Unless it rains!

A big thanks to Archie Babe who sent an instruction sheet on how to find the passwords in the computer.

OTL managed to find Eric's new password.

We didn't know he used physics terminology!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

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

Well, it seems to work!

Hi Woofers!

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

Well now, have we had some fun with the oldish computer! Because it is running a very old control system it's access to the Internet has been cancelled. Let's face it, how many other computers still run Windows 98?

Yeah, OK not counting Old Two Legs!

Well, as the laptop is off on Monday we just got to have some sort of communication with the Internetty Thingy and OTL has been bashing away on the keyboard trying to find passwords that still work!

It was the middle of the afternoon that finally we managed to hook up to URL's and SMTP and other silly sounding things that make the computer talk to you all!

OTL got a lot of help from the ferrets as they ran across the keyboard just as OTL was putting in a new password and completely cod's it up!

Not that Eric was bothered, all he wanted was to get to the bowl of rabbit food OTL has for breakfast!

Password? Yeah, hang on until I've finished this!
Early this morning we got down to the sea shore to see the sunrise, well not exactly the real sunrise but rather the afterglow as it headed towards midday!

Can't wait until autumn and the real sunrises!
Holly and I got a bit bored waiting for OTL to click away with his camera phone, he kept taking pictures of his thumb!

If he takes any more pictures of his thumb I'm going to bite it off!
Mind you, even I was getting fed up and it wasn't long before I headed off for a wee!

OK, I've had enough, I'm off for a wee!
Now for some good news, it's been raining for most of the day, well OK, not exactly pouring but rather drizzling, however, with a bit of luck it will be freezing cold and at least six feet of snow and then we will get out of our hair cut and shampoo!

Well, we can hope!

Keep your claws crossed for us!

See you tomorrow.

Luv,

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

Loosing the Laptop?

Hi Woofers!

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

You know there are some days when nothing happens, like no fights, no winding Old Two Legs up or even setting the ferrets to bite The Missus toes when she forgets to put her wellies on when the ferrets are let loose!

Well, we have had one of those days. First thing this morning it started to rain and both Holly and I reckon with a bit of luck it may carry on over the weekend.

Because of the rain, there were very few insects out flying around, so even Old Two Legs didn't get a chance for another 'Bug Shot'!

It was the same at lunch time and the rain did ease off a tiny bit but all OTL could find to photograph was a branch!

I mean, we said he should Leaf it alone but he said he wanted to branch out into a new vista!

Well, it came from the trunk line to get here!
This afternoon was just as bad, the only exciting thing was he managed to get confirmation that the menders are expecting his laptop on Monday to replace the keyboard.

Now that's OK but it could take up to twenty one days to turn it around, three weeks!

I think I had better check to see if we can still do my diary on the old computer, I mean, we don't want to miss out on the going on in this part of the world!

See you tomorrow,

Luv,

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

Getting Prepaired for the weekend?

Hello Woofers!

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

Well, it has been another hot day and would you believe it but at lunchtime, were it not for the need of a wee and a poo, we wouldn't have gone out at all!

This mornings walk we saw a fox mooching around all the Fair Peoples caravan and it even pinched some food from one of the woofers bowls!

That was until the woofer noticed it from it's kennel and chased it off!

We had seen the fox before in the woods and OTL even got a photo of it before!

This morning he didn't bring the camera 'cos all of the bugs were still asleep and all he had to photograph would be closed up flowers!

Mind you, midday it all starts humming and out they all come!

First is the flies and this one was about 6mm long!
 It wasn't only the bugs wot was making all the buzzing sounds, some Two Legs in a speed boat came buzzing along close to the shore!


One noisy one close up and three more further out!
 I must admit, we really didn't feel like running around and when Old Two Legs told us to  'Sit and Stay', we thought is was a good idea!

Yeah, OK, we will stay, just get on with it!
 It's amazing just how many bugs sit and stay for OTL, that is until they get fed up and fly off!

i was going to sit and stay anyway!
 Of course the small Soldier Beetles were totally unaware that OTL was clicking away and the caterpillar was fast asleep anyway!


Don't say a word, he might then go away!
this afternoon we got a good brushing down by OTL and he used three different brushes, one unknotted the hair and the other pulled the loose hair out. OTL reckons that come Saturday we will get a bath and a hair cut, providing it isn't cold or pouring with rain!

Dear God of the Woofers, please make it rain!

Luv,

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

Tha Fair has arrived!

Hi Woofers!

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

It has been a bit of run around today. First of all this morning we headed off for our morning stroll and were surprised to see how many show waggons had turned up in the football field and were assembling the rides for the Village Fete this coming weekend!

As we walked past the caravans a big hairy monster of a woofer tried to charge out from under the caravan to woof at us and maybe chew Holly and i to bits!

It was a good job that he was tied to a metal pole driven into the ground1

Mind you, it gave Holly a chance to wiggle her butt at him and blow raspberries as well!

The sun was out and the tide was in, so, being a crafty woofer, I sort of wandered ahead and managed to get far enough ahead to go in for a swim!

I really needed a swim and to finish it off I had a good roll in the sand, much to Old Two Legs disgust!

Oh,  but this does feel good!
 Mind you, Holly took the time to enjoy a really good roll in a sniff she came across on the path!

You can stick the water I just can't get enough of this!
 OTL was clicking away at everything that had more legs than him!

This is a Shield Bug of some description!
 This cheeky little Grass Hopper was playing games with OTL 'cos every time OTL focused up on the bug, he ran around the other side of the grass!

Bet you can't see me now!
 OTL has decided to get a new keyboard for his laptop and went onto the Toshiba website that does that stuff. He filled in loads of information and after loads of pages of gumpf the website crashed on him!

OTL is not a happy two legs!

Still, tomorrow is another day and he will try the next thing which is..................telephone!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

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

having a Good Time!

Hello Woofers!

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

Another warm day today, this good weather has been going on for some time now, although it is not as good as last year it is still warm enough for us1

Today has been a busy day what with all our rabbit chasing and stuff. we got down to the sea shore and found that a travelling fun fair had arrived on the football field. now we thought that it was only on bank holidays or occasions like that was when they normally arrived but we don't thin there is one due for some time!

Holly did suggest that they may stay until August Bank Holiday but I'm sure she was just making that up!

Today The Missus and Old Two Legs went down to pick up the new car, TM said it was funny how the salesman started to show off when OTL refused to buy a GAP insurance for an additional four hundred pounds! Then there was some other stuff he wanted OTL to buy but showed off even more when OTL said that he would keep the money and spend it on himself instead of the car!

When they finally left the car showroom the first stop was one of OTL's customers to pick up a load of stuff OTL is going to be repairing over the next few weeks! What is even better, he has to polish the stuff with furniture polish just to get the grime off.

We reckon there are at least a hundred and fifty units1

OTL does get all the good jobs!

That's all for today, not too exciting and tomorrow is going to be worse, programing and more polishing and even more programing!

I think we will be sleeping a lot tomorrow!

Bye for now.

Luv,

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

A Night at The Proms but not for us!

Hello Woofers!

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

Well, it was rather warm yesterday especially in the morning and we headed down to the sea shore as normal and Old Two Legs took the camera to see what small bugs he could photograph. Holly and I were satisfied with the sniffs we could find and the occasional fox poo that has a super effect on our noses!

It's the sniff that says 'ROLL IN ME' while OTL screams out 'Gerroffoutathatstinkingpileof5H1T!'

OTL has no soul!

We started off with a picture of a cargo ship heading up the Thames to unload.

Brexit? Wot Brexit?
 Not as pretty as a Butterfly but much bigger!

We saw a Wormy Man digging in the mud. We called out to ask him haw many he had but I suppose he didn't understand our woofing, maybe he is a cat person!

I said, How Many Woofin Worms?
 OTL spotted a marbled white butterfly, one he had not seen before. not exactly the rarest butterfly in the country, however, it beads in the south of the UK and when you see it it looks 'Striking'!

Looks a bit ragged around the wings but striking it is!
 A couple of feet away there was a Small White having a breather from flying around the undergrowth.

When it opens it's wings they have spots on them!
 This on is striking, not rare cos' it is a Gate Keeper but OTL still goes 'Wow!' when he sees it!

It's the Gate Keeper.
 Now, half way through the afternoon OTL and The Missus headed off to Rochester Castle to watch the Royal Philharmonic Concert Orchestra play a selection of 'Bond Movie Themes'. Auntie Jane and uncle Ian treated them to the event and even brought a picnic along as well. trouble was, no dogs allowed, just Two Legs, still they had a great time and joined in the 'Rule Britannia and Jerusalem' songs at the end and they even got up out of their seats to clap and wave!

Then as the last song was playing they let off a load of fireworks and both Holly and I decided that we would not have liked that bit! 

OTL and TM doing the Hornpipe?
Today was fun 'cos there was F1 racing at Silverstone and half way through we all fell asleep! You know it's a good job they record the race so they can watch it when they wake up!


See you tomorrow after we pick up the new car!

Luv,

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

Friday and the Weekend starts!

Hi Woofers!

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

Well, it's Friday and as normal Old Two Legs has been running around in circles again! He has been out most of the day with a customer who was in need of 'Technical Help', enuff said, give OTL a box of tools and a problem and he is as happy as a puppy with a plastic ball!

Talking of balls, Holly and I found a ball at lunchtime when The Missus took us out for a walk. It was great fun chasing it down the farm path after the ball especially when it went into the plants and it required our noses to find it again!

We are looking forward to seeing some of the ladies up at the village hall and with any luck we will see Rosie!

Miss Wendy is looking forward to getting a cuddle!

I don't know about you lot but we are looking forward to getting some cooler weather, this sun is making us too hot!

Monday isn't far away and TM will be off to pick up the new car! OTL has changed over the insurance and some other stuff so she will be able to say she is the first to drive it!

Next of course will be OTL and after that Holly and I will be investigating all the sniffs all over the car!

See you all tomorrow!

Luv,

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