Same Old but not so wet!

Hi Woofers!

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

Today the ferrets were let out for a rampage around the house. They haven't been out since last Sunday and to be honest, they were going a little 'Cage Crazy'!

Every time Old Two Legs walked past the cage, Eric would be there with his claws clamped around the bars and shaking the cage for all his worth!

He wanted out for a run!

Well, to day he got it and both he and Wendy were dooking their tails off and chasing each other over and under the furniture plus jumping onto OTL's back for a cuddle and tummy tickle.

The weather wasn't brilliant but at least the rain held off while we were out down the Sea Front.

Not the most exciting vista!
Lunchtime we arrived to find the tide was right in and slapping the Sea Wall for all it's worth. The sea shells were being washed right up to the Sea Wall and even over the concrete steps!

No, I'm not going in there!
While we were sorting out the sniffs three tiddly woofers came past and as we had met them before, we exchanged sniffs and OTL got a howling big woof as a greeting. Trubble was, the 'Woof' sounded more like a gargle with custard!

It's not a woof, it's my Party Trick!
Now, there are some Two Leg's who think it is smart to dress their woofers up in all manner of rain coats and woolly jumpers and it is so EMBARRASSING!

I mean, how could you do this to a woofer?

Come on OTL, I need a cuddle!
OTL took pity on this woofer who not only got a cuddle and a tickle behind the ear but was allowed to give OTL a lick on the nose!

Well, we all felt so sorry for them!

OTL has been out most of the afternoon working so Holly and I have been sitting by the bedroom window watching out for him to return.

Friday tomorrow, the weekend is nearly upon us, with a bit of luck we may get the ferrets out for a run down on the beach!

See you tomorrow.

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret.

This week it's one long Monday!

Hi Woofers!

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

Wot a day! It started off with Old Two Legs getting up all of fifteen minutes late so that when we went out for a walk we had missed the 'Window' in the rain. Needless to say, we all got wet!

The morning was spent snoozing in the office and listening to the ferrets complaining about not being let out of the office for a rampage!

We've had a Two Legs in this week messing about with the kitchen cupboards.

All morning it has been raining but at lunchtime the rain had stopped!

Off we went, with our rain coats on, just in case and when we got down to the Sea Front, it was raining!

You can tell how wet it is out here, OTL has got his wellies out of the shed and is using them when he takes us out!

So, we have had three days of wet and damp and it looks like it will remain like that for the next few days!

Holly says that we could get the longest wet Monday this year!

Unless of course it carries on being wet and damp through next wee as well!

While OTL was cleaning the ferrets cage, he put both of them in the small travelling cage and they both snuggled down together and looked out of the cage at OTL rushing past with shovel loads of ferret poo.

The funny thing was, Eric was on the bottom and Wendy was on top of Eric, resting her chin on Eric's head, they looked dead cute!

We have been listening to OTL talking on the telephone to his mobile phone 'Service Providor' cos his mobile phone has gone wobbly.

It sort of goes like this, 'Hello, is that sales?'   Yes how can I help you?  'Well I got one of your phones and it has stopped working, like it won't switch on' Oh I'm sorry about that, what is your phone number?  '07777 777777'  OK, I have it here, ummmm, sorry I can't talk to you. 'wot?'  No, err, sorry but you have been with us for twenty years and have attained the distinction of being a Premier Customer.  'OK who can I talk to?'    If you dial 191 there is someone who can talk to you.  'How do I do that, my phone won't switch on!'  Umm, if you look on our website they have contact details.  'OK, I'll look on the web site'      Off he goes only to find the web site is shut down for maintenance and won't be up and running for a day or two!

It's a good job OTL keeps his old phone in the drawer, at least he can swap over the sim card!

See you tomorrow.

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret.

We got visitors this weekend!

Hi Woofers!

Us again, Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret.

Well, unless we didn't know better I'd say that today is Monday but Old Two Legs says it's Tuesday and it's just as miserable but at least the wind has dropped!

Now, as you know, us woofers are in charge around here but we caught OTL and The Missus discussing visitors that are supposed to be staying with us for a couple of days.

WOOFERS!

I mean, we know them, they are those three hooligans that live with Auntie Jane and got a super garden where you can poo or wee where you want!

Well, if they come here there will be no pooing in the garden and if there is any trouble we got a pond we can circum navigate with out trouble but these hooligans have already been in pond trying to run around it!

Local Knowledge is a distinct advantage!

Mind you, we have got to take them out with us down the Sea Front but that's no problem 'cos they will be on a lead each while Holly and I will get our normal rein free walkies!

A real miserable morning.
 Mind you, we can show them a good path with sniffs they would have not sniffed before!

We secretly call this 'Sniff Alley'!
 This afternoon, on our walk the sea looked really strange, like a painting sort of!

We can't make up our minds which is the better one.

A view from Grain looking out to sea.
 This other one is definitely one that could have been painted!

We think this a sort of  'Inpressionist' type of painting!
 We asked wot an 'Impressionist' type of painting was and OTL says it is a painting that gives an 'Impression' of something, so, wot are these then?

A Seaside Storm Impression?

You know sometimes it's best we don't ask questions cos we don't understand the answer!

Bring on the hooligans, we're ready for them!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret.

A Miserable Monday, Official!

Hi Woofers!

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

Well, we have, for some time, not heard a squeak out of Wendy or Eric. They have been cuddling up together in the beds and curling up into what is called a Ferret Doughnut!

We reckon that they will be OK for travelling together in the travel cages when we go out down the Sea Wall or even when we go on holiday!

Would that could be said for Holly and I.

We had an argument the other day over a teeth cleaning chew that was on my bed and Holly reckons that it was hers and I had nicked it!

As if!

Well, we had a bit of a shouting match and Old Two Legs had to drag us apart by the scruff of our necks and then he told us off rotten!

No one got the chew cos OTL threw it in the bin!

Ever since then we have been good little girls!

Today has been a right rotten day, we even had the Two Legs on Radio 4 say that today was a 'Miserable Monday' so, there you have it, official and from the BBC!

We got a Two Legs in to do some re engineering of the kitchen which is making The Missus all pleased but because the TL is sloshing paint about both Holly and I plus the ferrets are banned from the kitchen 'cos we #'Can't be Trusted'!

Us? Trusted?

I can understand it about the ferrets being untrustworthy, I mean, they do it just for fun but Holly and I!

We stood on the Sea Wall and waved at Southend but didn't see Auntie Sue or Mike, maybe they have gone inland for a rampage!

See you all tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret.

Back Again!

Hello Woofers!

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

Sorry we missed you last night, it's Old Two Legs fault, he fell asleep in the chair and only woke up when The Missus clumped up the stairs to go to bed!

Mind you, Holly and I did have a long snooze as well!

We were up early, well, just how much sleep can a woofer have!

You know, there were no other woofers on the beach or in the forest or even the sea wall, well, it's Sunday and everyone is still in bed!

Lunchtime was better, no rain and little wind!

Sheerness on a Sunday afternoon, good innit?
One of the good things about the tide being out is that Holly and I get to have a run on the beach and if we find a sniff or two, we get to have a roll and OTL can't stop us!

I gotta Big Sniff here!
OTL had given up on trying to control us and headed for the top of the hill where he found some black fungi. It's the first time he has seen that coloured fungi and is not sure if it is a new fungi or one of the normal ones with a problem!

It could even be a bit of poo!
Autumn is well on it's way now and what leaves are left on the trees will be on the ground soon, so this could be the last photo before the snow arrives!

Just imagine it with six foot of snow and a couple of ferrets dancing on top!
Let's hope OTL doesn't fall asleep again, mind you TM is worse, she falls asleep as soon as dinner has finished!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret.

Another Rock!

Hi Woofers!

Us again, Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret.

It has been a bit gloomy down here in North Kent, we got down in time to catch the sunrise but so did a load of clouds and we lost cos the clouds were bigger than us!

Well, it's there but not as visible as we would like!
 Being a Friday is has been quiet and the ferrets have been having fun with their two hour rampage around the house.

Holly and I escape to the bedroom and enjoy a snooze on the bed!

Old Two Legs says it is fun watching the pair of them chasing each other around the lounge and under the chairs. Eric has a habit of running around the room, diving under a chair and then poke his head out, look at OTL and then run out and dive at him!

We have been told that he has been 'Smoothy Hunting' in The Missus work space and after digging it out of a drawer, he runs off with it in his mouth and hides it behind the old music centre where TM can't get to it!

One up for Eric!

Lunchtime it was just as gloomy but we did find another Grain Rock. This time it was jammed into the gate post and had drawings of Poppies!

Lest We Forget
 Then we turned it over and on the back was........

This says Grain Rocks, Remembrance Day 2019
 OTL says that there was a number of these placed on grave head stones in the local church on Remembrance Day and it was mentioned on the Grain Rocks Faceache page.

We didn't see the pictures cos OTL doesn't have a Faceache account, TM won't let him!

Today we decided to leave it where we saw it so that someone else will be able to appreciate it.

OTL is still coughing but says he is more concerned with the bruises on his back.

Seems he was snoring last night and TM was trying to advise him of the noise he was making!

Ooooo! She can be so forceful!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret.

We may need a bigger bed!

Hello Woofers!

Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret back again.

We have been missing out on the goings on in the ferret cage. There has been no screams, squeaks or punch ups!

The only squeaks are when the pair of them have a play fight and are rolling around on the carpet!

Nowadays they can be found cuddled up together in the cuddle cup with one of The Missus pinnies!

If Miss Wendy is on her own she can stretch out with all four paws to the corners!

Now that was OK until Eric was allowed in!

If Eric was in there on his own he had to curl around the edges.

Now when they crawl into bed they get all wrapped up in the pinny and each others paws!

I can see that Old Two Legs will be checking the sizes of cuddle cups in stock and picking up the biggest and if they prove too small then a new cuddle cup may be ordered!

I really need a bigger bed!
While OTL had the camera out he took a picture of me doing my 'Iwannawee' look.

You just don't know how much I need a wee!
We didn't take the camera out today cos the weather was horrid, misty, cold and windy!

There were no Grain Rocks around anywhere and what woofers we met all had their coats on and I must admit there were a couple that looked right weird, I mean, there was a French Bulldog with a yellow parka on!

With a bit of luck the weather will change tomorrow but I don't expect it to get warmer than last week but I keep my claws crossed!

See you tomorrow.

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret.

Atishoo, Atishoo he then fell down!

Hello Woofers!

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

Well, Old Two Legs is still alive! We know that 'cos he was making such a noise last night. First he starts off by coughing and then after finally falls asleep, he starts snoring, worse than The Missus!

We know what to do, Holly starts shoving him in his back while I jump on top of his head and give his ear a good licking!

That woke him up!

Of course, all good things come to an end and he was back to snoring and coughing, right up to when we gave him another kick and an ear lick!

Needless to say, we were up a little later than normal but not too late that we missed the sun, in fact by the time we headed towards the forest it still hadn't come over the horizon!

Another shot of the tree and bench, plus the bin where OTL throws the poo bags!
Our last look at Sheerness showed us that the sun still hadn't got up yet. Off we went hunting Grain Rocks but even they were still in bed!

We beat the sun this morning!
We spent the morning munching away on some rawhide chews while sitting under OTL's office desk and OTL spent the time coughing and sneezing!

The lunchtime walk was chilly and a bit more wind that this morning but we kept going like the brave little puppies we are!

Now, every so often we like to have some fun and the best time is when we have had our lunch, or dinner or even breakfast.

You see, we get a treat from The Missus when we have eaten all our food and sometimes she forgets so Holly and I jump up on the sofa and 'Talk' to her. Not that she understands what we are saying but in the end she gets the idea!

Well, today we thought we would have a joke on OTL and after our lunch we sneaked up to his office, jumped up and shoved the back of his chair. This is the way we attract OTL's attention if we have something for him to do.

Normally it's a wee in the garden!

Today we jumped up, bashed the chair and as soon as he turned around, we started woofing at him in our 'Quick! Follow us, it's IMPORTANT' woof!

We got him up and down stairs in no time and sat by the treat box!

We got our treat and he called us a pair of sneaky woofers!

Sneaky? Us?

See you tomorrow.

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret.

Frosty or Wot!

Hi Woofers!

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

Well, sorry about yesterday, we forgot to hit the 'Publish' button!

It's Old Two Legs fault, he has been coughing and wheezing and feeling all sorry for himself!

I mean, it's only a cough and cold and his nose is all snotty and his head aches every time he sneezes or coughs!

It was freezing this morning and although the wind wasn't blowing the was enough frost on the ground to make us think about snow and winter time!

Any more of this and we'll be able to make snowballs!
 We were a little late in getting up, OTL's fault, he got woken up in the night with his coughing and then Holly got him up at midnight cos she needed a wee!

We could hear Holly woofing at the kitchen door and both The Missus I and stayed perfectly still until OTL woke up and went down to let her out and while he was down there we sort of wriggled about and took over more of the bed!

Freezy Cold under paws this morning!
The sun was up by the time we got to the forest and positioning the sun behind the tree managed to get this shot.

It's that tree again!
OTL has been a bit lazy today and has spent most of the day in the office playing on the computer.

Sorry to hear about Archie Babe having his butt squeezed, we are lucky in tat we don't have that done to us. Just occasionally we get out butt washed and scrubbed if we get a Grumbly Tum!

I think OTL is planning an early night tonight, that is unless he falls asleep in front of the TV and then it turns into a late night!

See you tomorrow.

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret.

Scary Woofer!

Hi Woofers!

Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret here again.

It has been a bit warmer today, the wind has swung around a bit and is now coming off the land instead of blowing in off the sea!

It was dark when we started our walk and as we were sniffing our way across the field we heard a clumping that indicated that a big woofer was coming out of the dark!

All of a sudden this humping great German Shepherd Dog came bounding into view!

Scared the tail off of me, sat Holly Chops down on her butt!

This thing looked like the Hound of the Baskervilles and we thought it was about to attack Old Two Legs but instead of ripping his head off, the woofer danced around OTL like a big soppy tart!

Of course, as he was dancing about he got the famous OTL Tail Tickle and a scratch behind the ears as well!

That was it, off he lolloped into the dark. All we heard was a 'Good Morning' from the Two Legs who carried his lead!

It was all too dark to bother with the camera so we expect OTL to be all clicky-click at lunch time.

Another walk?
Well lunchtime arrived and off we went, It was mild with a soft breeze which almost disappeared once we got into the trees.

No breeze, no rain but we can hear a woofer!
So, there we were walking through the forest enjoying the sniffs when we were woofed at by a little Pomeranian Woofer, all of five months old!

Well, we couldn't woof back cos we were laughing too much and pretended we were scared and decide we would run away as though we were terrified!

Well, it will give her laugh!

No more Grain Rocks!

We were thinking of getting Eric or Wendy out for a run but they were fast asleep, well, maybe tomorrow!

Bye for now!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret.
