Hi Woofers!
Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret here again.
I know you all want to know if there is any improvement on the ferret front and I'm sorry to say things are at the Status Quo point. Screaming, attack and defence.
Last night The Missus heard the screaming and decided that by the time she got up the excitement would have died down, so she let hem get on with it and as suspected, it all went quiet after ten seconds or so!
Miss Wendy came out with us this morning for a stroll along the sea front and spent some time cuddled up in OTL's arms, Mind you, she got down on the beach and waddled along the sea wall, up the stairs and straight into the long grass, her favourite bit of the walk!
Back home they had a little tussle and a scream or two but over all remained relatively peaceful. Eric got to bed first of all and when Wendy wanted to get in bed, well, that's when the fight started!
Eric spent the morning on the hammock!
Lunchtime he came out with us and enjoyed a roll and a dig on the beach while Holly went off to sniff at something smelly!
Back home OTL tried putting them in together, in the cuddle cup and as soon as there were signs of Wendy's mouth opening to scream, OTL stuck his hand between the pair of them and kept them apart.
It didn't last long 'cos Eric tried to jump over OTL's hand and give Wendy a little nip but OTL kept them apart.
Best of all, both ferrets refrained from mistakenly biting OTL!
Wendy kept possession of the cuddle cup while Eric was banned to the hammock!
Every so often Eric would poke his nose over the top of the cuddle cup and have a sniff, only to be met by a pair of very sharp teeth and a deafening scream from Miss Wendy!
You know we never had this trouble when we introduced her to Freddy de Ferret or Little Monty, still, we won't give up and the battles are not ferocious, just loud and noisy!
OTL says that is normal with the female of the species.
We're going to tell The Missus what he said, that means he will be in trouble again!
See you tomorrow!
Luv,
Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret.

OTL's New Idea!
Hello Woofers!
Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret here again!
We thought we would wake up to some rain but the sky looked like it was going to stay moody all day.
Old Two Legs said that when the Autumn gets going proper like there should be some real colourful sunrises!
Looking out over the water we could see the WWII anti aircraft gun emplacement out in the estuary and the wind powered generators were as plain as could be on the horizon!
A bit further along the sea wall there were a load of gulls having breakfast but as soon as we arrived they decided to fly off!
The ferrets stayed at home, mainly cos they were asleep! So, Holly and I had all the beach to ourselves!
Old Two Legs has come up with another idea on how we can get the ferrets together. At the moment they have to option of sleeping in one of two cuddle cups or a couple of hammocks. OTL says that if he took out both cuddle cups and replaced them with one big cuddle cup big enough for them both to sleep in!
Sneaky OTL eh?
So, after cleaning the cage he swapped the beds around and let Eric into the bed first. In marched Wendy and jumped straight into bed, screamed at Eric and kicked him out of bed!
Eric decided to have a snooze in the hammock!
A little later, Eric rushed down to the W&P Place and when he had finished he headed up to the big cuddle cup, slid in and landed on top of Miss Wendy who woke up, looked over her shoulder at Eric, gave him a dirty look and got out of bed!
So, no screaming or punch ups and at the moment they are both asleep, later this evening it will be the testing time.
OTL reckons that when they get tired there may be more of a chance they will forget to fight and instead end up having a snoozy cuddle!
OTL found some Wild Flower Seeds and has decided to sow them in the garden, above the Boggy Bit, however, when he opened up the packets he reckoned there was only half a dozen seeds in the packet!
So, he spread the seeds around, raked them over and got the watering can out and wet the area. So, he reckons that by the time we gets back from our holiday there should be some flowers to greet us!
Now, The Missus wants to put her stamp on the garden and we reckon all the pots will be covered in Glue and Glitter!
OTL says she may even stick some Sweet Poppy Pencils in the pots and call it Art!
See you all tomorrow and cross your claws that the ferrets behave themselves!
Luv,
Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret.

| Believe it or not, there are two trees here! |

| It looks very busy out there! |

Squeaky Chicken to the Rescue!
Hello Woofers!
It's us again, Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret!
Now, Old Two Legs has been busy and has now got to the stage where he can't do any more to the garden. Not because he can't think of anything else to do, it's just that The Missus wants to put her stamp on the garden.
That normally means there will be stuff like a knitted frog house or palm tree!
This shows the original pond with the new Boggy Bit over the back. We found frogs hiding under the rocks and in the plants as well!
The Boggy Bit is on a slant so the water will run down the ditch that is filled with stones, into the pond.
Well, that's the idea anyway!
Eric is a ferret who has a favourite toy and it is a Squeaky Chicken!
If Eric is lost or is hiding somewhere around the house, we get out the Squeaky Chicken, give it a few squeaks and the next thing you see is Eric at your feet looking up at you!
Today, both ferrets were out rampaging around the house and Eric decided that today he would get his favourite cuddle cup reserved for him and keep Wendy out as well.
To do this he got his chicken and propped it up against the cuddle cup and went of for some more 'Rampaging'!
Unfortunately, Miss Wendy doesn't do any form of reservation, with her it's 'Bums on Beds' so she threw the chicken out and fell asleep!
OTL hung the chicken up on the door to make sure Wendy doesn't chew it to bits!
I must admit, when Eric got back there was a squeak or two but he didn't get the bed back!
Lunchtime the rain had stopped but the clouds were heavy and looked like they contained rain, so both ferrets decided to stay in bed!
To be honest, they missed a good walk, it was only a bit windy and the sunshine was good!
OTL was doing his thing, cloud gazing and reckoned he could see a ferret in the clouds
Back home the ferrets were both fast asleep and there were no reports of screaming from Miss Wendy.
OTL is always monitoring the actions of the ferrets and he reckons he has seen a 'Softening' of Miss Wendy's attitude towards Eric and he is not chasing her as much, both of which is a good sign.
Well, they have just two weeks to get it all sorted before Scotland. You know, it is a bit like the Brexit Fiasco, both want to be friendly but on their own terms!
See you tomorrow!
Luv,
Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret!

Midnight Squeakers again!
Hello Woofers!
It's Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret here!
Now Missy Sarn, we have not been reporting on the love life of our two ferrets 'cos at the moment, there is no loving going on. However, we do get the occasional squeak from Miss Wendy who still doesn't trust young Eric.
Picture this, there is Eric fast asleep in his cuddle cup and next door is Miss Wendy, paws in the air, snoozing gently in her cuddle cup.
Eric suddenly wakes up, dashes down into the Wee & Poo area and when he finishes wanders back up to bed.
As he passes the cuddle cup where Miss Wendy is snoozing, he sticks his head in to make sure she is alright and maybe wants a cuddle.
Miss Wendy, sensing he is there, lets out a big scream and goes to take a lump out of his nose!
Eric is too quick for her and ducks back and heads back to bed, all he wanted was a cuddle!
So, what we have now is a sort of truce where Wendy is making all the noise any time Eric gets near to her and just occasionally Eric retaliates, holds her down and gives Wendy a nip on the back of the neck, just to let her know he is bigger and stronger than her!
So that is how we stand at the moment, not all out hostilities, just the occasional skirmish!
They have two weeks to patch things up cos that's when we will be heading off to Scotland for our Autumn Holiday and it's a long way from here to there and we don't want to be stopping every few miles just to prise the pair apart if they are having a punch up!
Plus the fact that the caravan cage is a lot smaller that the cage in Old Two Legs office!
There will be two sleeping places, one in a big cuddle cup and the other is on a hammock!
Cross you claws that they get something together before then!
Today OTL has spent in the garden mucking about with the pond and the new Boggy Bit and now he reckons he has finished for now.
There are a few pots waiting for some plants to dip their roots in and the rest has been sorted. I will get some pictures tomorrow to show you. Poor lad is hurting all over and on top of that, he had to go to the dentist for a checkup. Open Wallet and say after me, 'Help yourself'!
We hope Archie Babe gets everything sorted at the vets, that's another one of those Open Wallet and say after me, 'Help yourself'!
Sorry, no pictures today. When OTL takes Eric or Wendy out for a walk with us there is no room for the camera in the bag plus he has to keep an eye open for other woofers who might fancy a bit of ferret for breakfast or lunch!
That would never do!
See you tomorrow!
Luv,
Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret.

Another day in the garden!
Hello Woofers!
Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret here again!
Well, today has been a day when the ferrets decided to stay in bed rather than come out for a run, morning or lunchtime!
It makes an interesting change for Old Two Legs to take the camera out both times!
One of the good things about getting out early is you get a clean run all the way along the sea shore and up to the beach.
Overlooking the beach is this WWII thing that had something to do with the gun emplacement that used to be here. Strangely enough, we thing is has some sort of preservation order on it but what or why we don't know!
Makes you wonder what they teach them at school!
OTL was looking up at the clouds and said that it looked like a flying ferret!
As if OTL needs to be reminded! Mind you, looking at the scale of the woofer and the pile of poo, OTL reckons if we did anything like that we would be down the vet's straight away!
OTL has been working on the garden and pond today. The planned boggy bit is suffering from a little mismatch on the levels so he is re planning what to add to the bit he dug up. Latest is a layer of stones and then stick some flower pots on top and plant some water loving plants in the pots. Well, that is the latest from The Missus but that plan could change as well!
See you tomorrow!
Luv,
Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret.

 |
| Come on Holly Chops, I'll race you to the beach! |
 |
| Well, graffiti it may be but legible it isn't! |
 |
| Well, OTL saw this and thought that it looked sort of interesting! |
 |
| A Fast Flying Ferret? Are you sure? |

| Honest, it weren't me! |

16 tons and what do you get?
Hello Woofers!
Here we are again, Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret!
Sorry about yesterday, full details later!
Now, Eric is in deep poo with The Missus 'cos he had a chew of one of her very expensive Craft Mats!
He is in such deep poo that she is thinking of having another 'Ferret Raffle' however, this time it won't be a bottle of giggle juice as a prize, it will be a ferret called Eric!
She can be soooo Hard sometimes!
We took Eric out with us this morning 'cos the sun was shining and there were some lovely clouds up in the sky and we know that both Old Two Legs and Eric love clouds, well the pair of them stand there with their noses pointing skywards and saying things like .....'Oh! That one looks like a ferret!'
Daft or wot?
Now, excuses time.
Yesterday OTL got involved in searching for roots of a nasty plant that has managed to kill off a load of water plants we had in the garden pond. To begin with, OTL dug up enough of this plant roots to half fill a Wheelie Bin and after leaving the ground for a week or two he went back to see if he could find any more, which he did!
So, yesterday he was digging and sorting and chasing roost all over the place. By the time he got indoors he was moaning about his aching back and burnt neck and sore fingers where he had been digging and poking and pulling stuff out of the ground!
After clearing everything away and eating dinner, he fell asleep until it was time to go to bed!
So, that's the reason I didn't appear yesterday!
So, today he was out there again after walking us Woofers and cleaning the ferret cage.
It was interesting to see just how many insects there were visiting or hiding under the rocks. Plus of course, frogs!
There were small, medium and largish frogs diving into the pond when OTL got too near with the garden fork or rake!
We were also visited by butterfly's from the plants next door!
Now, the pond digging thing is not only to get rid of a marauding plant but also to take out two Water Lilly plants that had got just too big for the pond, plus, OTL wanted a 'Boggy Area' where he could attract water margin type of plants.
After shovelling a massive amount of earth plus digging out more roots, he managed to create a patch that could take in water from the pond and still remain boggy if the level in the pond dropped.
Using his trusty mallet, he created a gap in the earth lining and slowly the water trickled in and we had a good patch of wet stuff that could be planted with reeds and water type plants!
Lunchtime he packed up for the day cos the F1 racing was on at ten past two, so, off we went down the sea shore and we spotted the Blackberry Plants just about ripened, well most of them and there they were, Two Legs, plastic boxes in their paws, collecting Blackberries to make jam, tarts or wine!
All of which us woofers do not like!
Tomorrow OTL will be back out again, landscaping the pond and creating a rocky vista around the edge of the Boggy Bit!
See you tomorrow.
Luv,
Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret.

All of which us woofers do not like!
 |
| Well, they look pretty but taste like Yuk! |
See you tomorrow.

The Tide was In, and so was I!
Hello Woofers!
Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret here!
Wot a super day today has been, loads of sunshine and a few Two Legs mucking about on the beaches with their Mini TL's!
There were loads of MTL's on the stony beach, I mean, if they walked a little way along the shore they would have found sand to play in!
Holly was all keen to visit them and say 'Hello' but of course wot she really means when she says that is.....got any food?
I wasn't interested and headed for the water, first for a little splash and then for a super big splosh in the water!
And in I went!
I even came out, woofed at OTL but he wouldn't throw any sticks for me!
Then I had a brilliant idea. If OTL took his boot off and threw it in the water, I could rush in and rescue it!
We even invited Eric in for a swim but he said that he would rather stay dry thank you very much!
Back home our garden is a favourite with the Collard Doves that hang around looking for seed dropped from the bird feeder but now they have taken to resting on the tree branch, catching the rays!
We have got the F1 racing this weekend so that's more exciting things to watch on the TV!
See you tomorrow!
Luv,
Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret

 |
| What are they building, Rock Castles? |
 |
| Come on, let's go and visit, they must have food with them! |
 |
| Now, Old Two Legs is too far away and the water is so close I'm going in! |
I even came out, woofed at OTL but he wouldn't throw any sticks for me!
 |
| I wish I had brought a stick or two or even a ball! |
 |
| Come on, gissa boot and I'll 'rescue it, promise! |
 |
| Wet is OK when you mix it with suds but not with sand! |
 |
| You always need a rest after a good feed! |
See you tomorrow!

Sneaky Squeeks in the early hours!
Hi Woofers!
Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret back with you again!
It seems that Miss Wendy has a new game to play on Old Two Legs. This morning, around three thirty, The Missus woke OTL saying that there was screaming coming from the ferrets. So, bouncing off the walls and doors, OTL sleep walking into the office, OTL expected to find two fighting ferrets ripping the legs off each other.
He switched the light on and looked into the cage to find on the ground floor, fast asleep on the hammock, Miss Wendy was gently snoozing.
On the top floor, tucked up inside one of the cuddle cups was Eric, paws in the air, snoring his tail off!
So, who was screaming? Was TM dreaming? Had the ferrets played a sneaky trick on poor OTL?
Answers on a ten pound note please!
Eric came out with us first thing and enjoyed a super walk along the Seashore but he still kept asking for a lift. He really wanted to see what was ahead and behind in case there were any woofers creeping up behind!
Lunch time, Miss Wendy decided she was going to stay in bed catching up on her sleep that was interrupted when OTL came crashing into the office in the middle of the night!
Holly and I had a good run around and just for a change we went down the big hill and into the woods.
Of course, Holly tried to beat me down the hill but she just rolled down where I raced down!
OTL was more interested in photographing the Grain Tower and a passing yacht!
Good to see Archie Babe has got clean Toothy Pegs, we get a Teeth Cleaning Chew every day and that helps keep us with a bright white grin!
Mind you, we don't get our butts inspected!
Saying that, there are times when we get a butt wash 'cos we sometimes get a Grumbly Tum, but that's another story!
See you all tomorrow!
Luv,
Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret.

Cloud, Wet Rain and a Squeaking Wendy!
Hello Woofers!
It's Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret again!
This matchmaking is getting a bit tiring, it seems that Miss Wendy likes to wait until it's all dark before attacking Eric who keeps falling out of his bed!
Last night there was one squeak at ten thirty and again at midnight.
Eric is still not sure how to get on her good side and what starts as a friendly butt sniff quickly turns into a punch up as she tries to bite lumps out of him!
It will work out, it's just going to take time.
As a reward, Eric came out with us this morning.
Lucky for us it didn't last long and we were soon heading down the sea front looking for new sniffs!
Eric was more interested in searching for Weasel Poo!
After a run on the beach we headed back towards the car 'cos it started to rain again!
The only problem was, OTL had the car keys and unless he was there we couldn't have got into the car!
Wendy came out for a run later and although it was getting warm she still kept up a run all along the sea front but she got carried as we went up the local mountain!
The rest of the day has been spent snoozing under OTL's desk and nabbing a Chocolate Cookie!
See you tomorrow.
Luv,
Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret.

 |
| Well, I reckon it's seagull poo! |
 |
| No Weasel Poo, just Woofer droppings and Bird Muck! |

| Race you back and let's leave Eric and Old Two Legs behind! |
Wendy came out for a run later and although it was getting warm she still kept up a run all along the sea front but she got carried as we went up the local mountain!

| Any steeper and it will be 'Ice Axe and Crampons'! |
See you tomorrow.

...and the war continued!
Hi Woofers!
Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret back again!
First of all, thanks for the helpful advice regarding instructing ferret wooing!
Miss Wendy has been 'Done', so the 'Poor Man in Trouble' is a no goer!
Eric has lost his jewels so he doesn't wake up with a glint in his eye either!
Last night there was no screaming at four or even five but we did find a poo in the sleeping area, so Miss Wendy did have a 'Moment' with Eric but it looks like Eric went back to sleep!
Wendy came out with us for a walk and had a great time ferreting in the long grass.
Back home Eric was showing off 'cos he didn't go out for a walk and when they came out of the cage for a rampage around the house Eric chases Wendy, who then hides under some boxes and when they finally meet.....................well, that's when the fight started!
If ever you have been close enough when ferrets are having a punch up you will know they have the same defencive action that a skunk has and it don't 'arf make your eyes water.....Phew!
Lunchtime came and it was just too hot for Eric to come out with us, he said he would stay on the hammock and catch the breeze as it wafted through the window and across his tummy!
Not that we worried 'cos that means Holly and I can go at our own speed and try to mug anyone who had any food!
We came across one Two Legs but he told us to 'Woof Off', in his own language!
We went for a drive as well 'cos Old Two Legs had to drop some stuff off at the carriers and we had plenty of time to enjoy the air con in the car, super and almost too cold!
So, let's hope there is peace and quiet tonight and they stay snoozing until it's getting up time!
Better still, we creep into the office and find them cuddled up on the hammock.
I suppose that is a little too much to ask for at the moment, but, claws crossed, they have three weeks before we go on holiday and we want them in the same cage by then!
See you tomorrow.
Luv,
Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret.
