Getting ready for the weekend!

Hi Woofers!

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

The Missus is getting ready for the weekends Glue Slapping! Mind you, this weekend she is heading off to the village hall with a pack of face masks!

We for start won't be looking in, they might all be getting high on some new glue!

You just can't trust them to behave themselves!

As normal, it was as black as it could be this morning and we often lost Old Two Legs in the dark.

It was better at lunchtime but the clouds were all dark and foreboding, let's hope tomorrow is better.

Spring is a coming, honest!
 Remember that Grain Rock we repositioned the other day? Well, it is still there in the tree where OTL left it. I suppose that everyone is walking past looking at the ground and not up at eye level. Mind you, OTL is six foot two inches so I suppose you would have to walk along looking up!

Look, two birdies sitting in a nest!
While OTL was waving the camera about, Holly and I headed off towards the car, only we took the wrong path, even though, there was a super sniff coming down the path!

Yeah, I know he is calling but this sniff is so juicy!
 This afternoon they went off shopping and left Holly and I to guard the house which was OK but we were glad when they came back 'cos that means we may get some treats!

See you all tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret.

Archie Babes Eight Today!

Hello Woofers!

Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret here on Archie's birthday!

I see that Archie has had a couple of Sing Song Birthday wishes already so we will have to add our effort to the pile!

OK, in Nine Seven Time................

One, Two, Ninety Seven!

Archie Babe is eight today,
Nice things to him we will say,
So, 'Let's sniff your butt', as we're passing
Happy Birthday all day!

OK, that's not too bad!

We hope the weather has been better where Archie lives 'cos it's been rubbish down here!

Black clouds, a little rain, and a potty woofer woofing at Eric!

No pictures today, too wet and too dark and we couldn't find any more Grain Rocks!

Eric came out with us again but because of the rain he decided to stay in the 'Ferret Bag' which was just as well 'cos a potty Collie came up to Old Two Legs and started woofing at Eric which scared him. OTL put out his hand and showed the Collie his palm and said, in a voice we know as 'Listen To Me'!

And said 'NO!'

That was it, he backed away and although there was some grumbling, he backed off and left us alone!

That sorted him!

I reckon we should wake Miss Wendy tomorrow 'cos she hasn't had run for a while.

OTL clipped Wendy's claws this morning so a run on the concrete will round them off!

Let's hope Archie Babe has had loads of nibble treats today, well, an itchy butt once a year is allowable!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret.

Another Grey Day

Hello Woofers!

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

We were hoping to get another sunrise like yesterday but to be honest we were unsure it would even get light!

So, with the camera left in the car we carried on along the path in the dark looking for a place to wee!

Lunchtime it was light and as he was making such a noise in the cage, we decided that Eric should come out for a run along the sea wall!

To begin with Eric refused to move but by the time we got to the beach he was galloping along sniffing all the sniffs and even started to dig a hole!

Just for a change we went along a new path and found a new Grain Rock! It had been placed on a concrete lid and covered with old leaves!

OTL inspected it and saw it was a small picture of a couple of birds in a yellow coloured nest.

Getting ready  for Spring?

A new place for the Rock!
 Just before the gate we spotted another rock and because we didn't have a camera, OTL had to use the phone to take a picture, mind you he was a bit wobbly!

A Wobbly shot!
 Let's cross our paws that we get a sunrise tomorrow and a few more Rocks!

Now, put your thinking collars on and get into gear 'cos tomorrow is Archie Babes Birthday! So, we want Happy Birthday Songs that rhyme with words like ee and oo!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret!

A Sunrise!

Hello Woofers!

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

We did it! Yes, we got down to the sea front just in time to see it!

The Bench!
Well, OK, not just the bench but the pre glow of the sunrise and the sun rose at 08:04hr!

It would have been a while before the sun crept over the top of Sheerness but the pre glow is always dramatic and in fact we reckon it is better than the actual sun rise it's self!

Getting better but we can't hang around!
 Old Two Legs reckons that it won't be to long before he will be getting out the big camera and a bigger lens.

We still reckon he is a big show off!

You can tell everyone is back at work, OTL has been bashing  away on the computer 'Processing Orders'.

Mind you, that gives us plenty of time for a snooze under the desk!

The undergrowth is growing all ready for Spring.
We saw a Grain Rock the other day but as much as we have looked, it has gone!

Grain Rocks with legs?

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret.

Holly The Tractor Driver!

Hi Woofers!

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

Today was a lazy day, well, this morning Old Two Legs got up a whole hour later than normal. I didn't mind, that means I can have snooze under the duvet while he splashes around in the shower!

We got down to the beach and saw that the sun was trying to creep up over the horizon. Actually it didn't look too bad and we were expecting a bright sunrise but just when we thought it would spring into life, it died!

I mean, gone, poof!

It was here, then it went!
In fact, not a glimpse of red at all, it just went!

Might as well have a poo, unless he still has the camera out!
Lunchtime it was all light but still sort of grey. We had an interesting time listening to OTL talk about the buds that were getting ready for Spring to start. The small oak tree on the side of the path had a fine bunch of buds but they were not swelling up yet, but, it will be interesting to watch the development of the buds as the year went on.

Looking good buddy!
There were some other bud type things that OTL called 'Catkins'!  I mean, they look nothing like cats!

Bet they don't go Meow!
It all looks a bit blank, all the leaves gone and the buds fast asleep for the Winter!

The sniffs are a bit damp as well!
On our way back to the car park we heard a rumbling and groaning and a tractor type of thingy wotsit came crashing through the trees.

Holly reckons she would love to have a go driving it around the park and woods!

I can drive that!
 She lives in Cloud Cuckoo Land some times!

OTL says that he will have an extra hour in bed tomorrow just so he can catch the sunrise. Holly and I reckon if we get the need to do a wee, he will be getting up earlier than he plans!

See you all tomorrow.

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret!

Sunday Funday!

Hello Woofers!

It's us again, Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret here!

Well, Old Two Legs wellies have done the trick again, on with the wellies and no rain outside!

We did get up a little late and the sun was trying to climb over the horizon. We didn't take the camera but instead OTL ran of a couple of shots with the phone camera. The only one that wasn't wobbly was the one where I was having a poo!

Can't a girl get any privacy!
I mean, it's enough that they have chopped down all the vegetation but to have someone clicking away is not on!

Mind you, he did pick it all up and dump it in the bin!

Lunchtime it was a little darker but still no rain, so the wellies are still working their magic!

I wish it would make up it's mind, light or dark, dark or light!
On the way back home we came across one of the neighbours trying to reverse a trailer up his drive but somehow he had damaged the ball hitch and OTL had to get out of the car to push it back up the drive, with the help of a few passing neighbours!

Good deed for the day!

Back home for a chew on a carrot and a snooze before dinner!

We love Sundays!

See you tomorrow.

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret.

Saturday with OTL!

Hello Woofers!

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

First thing this morning The Missus packed the small car with her crafty stuff and covered our new cushion and water bowl!

We were not having that and Old Two Legs soon rescued our bed and before long we were heading for the beach!

As normal it was too dark but there was some colour on the horizon, so, we reckon soon OTL will be bringing the camera with us to catch the sunrise, just like old times!

We took the camera at lunch time and although the sun was high in the sky, we were able to look at the tree's and compose a picture!

OK, maybe a little higher next time!
Since OTL got his  Green Wellies the rain has poured down over night or in the evening and when we go out, it has almost dried up! Still Spring is on it's way so we can expect a few downpours to test his wellies!

Until then, we have been trying to tempt him onto the beach for a paddle in the mud but as he doesn't want to mess his boots up, wimp!

Look OTL, I've found some money!
Even when Holly reckons she found some money on the beach OTL it still wasn't enough to get him onto the beach!

In the end I had to get back on the sea wall just to keep him from thinking we had run away!

We were only joking!
We liked to offer of Auntie Sue to help OTL spend money, trouble is, she will have to stand in line 'cos TM reckons she has first place!

So helpful these Tl's!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret!

Thank Ferrets it's Friday!

Hi Woofers!

It's Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret here!

What a day it's been. Old Two Legs has been working away on a pile of paper that caused him pain.

You see one is a demand from HMRC for the last 'contribution' on his tax bill and a 'Donation' on the next years tax!

All of which upsets poor OTL, mind you anyone removing money from OTL makes him all weepy!

Being a Friday we get to get off early, that means we leave the office and head down stairs around three in the afternoon.

We love Friday's!

First thing this morning it was just too dark to see much but lunchtime it was all bright enough to see!
 
Meeting up with the Husky Woofer is always fun, you see, they are on leads and can't run too far but Holly and I are off our lead and run circles around them!

Catch me if you can Bozo!
The tide was going out and the Brant Geese had landed and were sorting for the worms and other stuff they feed on!

What we need is a fork to dig these worms!
You just can't please these gees, I mean, we did offer to come and wee on a worm cast but these geese reckon we would chase them instead!

As if!

The sand was good. The tide was out and the sand had dried a little so it was firm enough for us to have a good run along beach!

Won't be long before we can dig holes!
This afternoon OTL phoned the vet and made an appointment for Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret to have their yearly distemper jab!

Now we don't like being stabbed but give a ferret a slurp of Ferretone and they totally ignore the needle aimed at their shoulders!

They are protected for another year and OTL gets another chance to weep when the receptionist tells him how much he has to pay!

You know, it's a pity that he can't claim all these stabbing are tax deductible!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret.

First day back!

Hi Woofers!

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

Not the best day of the year, we were all back to work today, terrible it was to!

Old Two Legs has been bashing away on the computer while The Missus has been slapping glue all over the place!

Holly is getting over a Grumbly Tum, but she still needed her butt washed this morning!

Eric, poor lad, is suffering from a Grumbly Tum as well and being a ferret it sort of 'Carries' and we have had to have the window open!

Wendy is all OK, so we reckon it is something he has picked up from the stuff he stashes away, like Chicken Strips or even a Smoothie!

He is still as bright as a button so we will keep an eye on him and see what tomorrow brings!

Other than that, it has been boring today, I mean, anything that involves working is a bit boring!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret!

HAPPY NEW YEAR WOOFERS!

Hi Woofers!

Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret here on a damp and grey New Year!

Happy New Year to all of you out there, the readers and commentators on our little blog!

Last night Old Two Legs and I sat up until the fire works went off all over the place.

Holly had gone up stairs to bed with The Missus, just in case there were any whizz bangs going off in the village.

Surprising, there were some bangs coming from the holiday camp but not enough to worry us and Holly stayed tucked up under the duvet!

So, at midnight 2020 arrived with not so much of a bang but rather a Phutt! Let's hope it's not a for taste of the year to come!

As you would expect, we were up a little late, a whole hour late! When we got to the beach it was all grey and no wind. There was a sea mist out to sea and it had crept onto the beach, damp!

Back home the ferrets had their morning rampage and Holly and I got a chew to gnaw at until lunchtime. These chews are great but I have noticed that if I get a chew, then Holly wants to pinch it! Likewise, if Holly gets a chew I always reckon that hers tastes better than mine!

It's the same with the ferrets, Miss Wendy reckons that the Bramble Biscuit tastes better if it is stolen from the bag rather than the bowl!

Lunch time OTL took the phone camera down to the beach 'cos the conditions were such that he thought it a waste of time taking the 'real' camera, well, if this is all you can get then it's not really worth it is it!

I mean, wot a terrible picture!
 As it is the first day of the year, OTL and The Missus have decided to get a Chinese Take a Way and polish of a bottle of bubbly!

That means King Plawns and Plawn Clackers and Chicken Strips but we will leave the bubbly alone!

A super start to the year!

So we will wish you all a very Happy New Year and may you achieve all you wish!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret!
