Getting ready for Spring Cleaning!

 Hi Woofers!

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

It was a little bit of a surprise today; the temperature had dropped and the sky was all grey and wet looking!

Old Two Legs was up early and we got around the old golf course before the rain started, not that it worried us, we planned a snooze this morning anyway!

OTL cleared the cages while the ferrets rampaged around the house. Then, after all that was done, they went back to their cage and enjoyed a Chicken Strip before getting into their beds for a snooze.

OTL went out back to the garden and after getting some tools from the shed and started chopping branches that were hanging over the fence and looked like they were tapping on the neighbour’s window!

There were loads of leaves in and around the garden plus lumps of moss that had been tossed off the roof tiles by birds searching for grubs!

OTL set to work and spent some time clearing it all up and into the waste bin reserved for garden waste to be collected by the bin men!

So, the back garden was given the treatment and the front of the house was given the same treatment.

There are plans to get the pond sorted as well, that means draining the pond, clearing out the rotten leaves and the six inches of mud and muck at the bottom of the deepest part of the pond.

We saw a couple of things thrashing about and thought they may be froggies that had been woken by OTL scooping out stuff with a fishing net!

So, that was our day really, OTL has booked a slot for Monday to take a load of stuff to the dump and there is a broken fence panel that needs to be broken down and then bunched up enough to be tied up and put into the car ready for dumping!

Sorry, there's no pictures but we will try to better tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret.

The warmest day this year!

 Hi Woofers!

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

We were listening to the weather forecast at lunchtime and they said that today was the warmest day this year, for us down south anyway!

Old Two Legs left his hat off again both in the morning and at lunchtime!

The Missus has been playing with the glue and glitter again, developing new processes for making a mess on bits of paper! 

Holly and I have a good way of getting OTL up on his feet when we want to go for a walk, we both jump up and hit the back of his chair then give him a big woof, works every time!

Take lunchtime, we knew that if we got him out early, we could meet up with Bob and his ball. So, woof we went and out went OTL! 

We thought we had missed him 'cos he wasn't where we expected him to be.

  Do you think we are a bit early?

 Then, around the corner came BOB, he had gone back to get the ball from his Two Legs!



 Yo! OTL! Wanna play ball?

 Both Holly and I had to sit on the path and wait for them to finish playing chase the ball!

As soon as possible we were down on the sea wall and I even went in for little paddle, even though OTL told me to keep out of the water!

I'd go in for a paddle but the tide's going out and thre's only mud down there!

 Holly and I had fun running up and down the beach, we dug a few holes in the sand and Holly even had a roll in something that sniffs!

  Was this the sniffy fish from yesterday?

 Maybe tomorrow it will be as warm as it has been today and we may even get OTL out in the garden clearing up the leaves!

Bye for now!

Luv, aisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret.
