Caravan's off for a wash and brush up!

 Hello Woofers!

Daisy, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret back with you.

We were out early this morning over the old golf course for a wee and a sniff!

They have put up a long length of curtain to keep the animals in or out, never did work out which!

Old Two Legs is still messing about on the computer, this end of year stuff seems to go on for ages!

I was looking forward to a paddle but again the water stayed well out of reach! 


 Well, it stayed well out of reach again!

 I even got up on the bench next to the poo bin but I still couldn't see the sea!

  I know Southend it that way but there are no sniffs and no water!

 Heading back to the car, we went through the maze of trees and bushes. When we got to the football field, I just had to have a rest. I mean, a girls gotta have a little rest!

I was so worn out with chasing bugs and rabbits and stuff that even when OTL called me I was still too worn out, so, I just lay on the grass and enjoyed a well-earned rest!

 

 I don't care how much you shout, I 'aint moving!

 This afternoon we took the caravan in for its service, it should take a couple of days to do it and OTL has asked if they are interested in buying it!

That's going to be a bummer, I mean, how will I go swimming and chasing sea gulls and stuff like that?

Let's see what tomorrow brings!

Luv,

Daisy, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret.

Another relaxing day.

 Hi Woofers!

Daisy, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret here.

I just love days like this, all warm and dry and warm and cuddly!

Old Two Legs managed to grab an extra half hour in bed this morning, that was until I decided that it was time to go out for a morning stroll around the old golf course.

It was then that I jumped up onto the bed and stuck my super cold wet nose in his ear!

It's amazing just how high he can jump from a horizontal position into a vertical position in one movement!

We didn't see anyone on our walk, I suppose that's because they were still in bed!

Lazy TL's!

Strange, it was almost like that at lunchtime, just one or two TL's wandering along the sea wall but not a woofer to be seen!

That being so, OTL went hunting bugs and came across this Common Blue. Well, we think it is a Common Blue but called a Holly Blue! A look at the butterfly book and a look on the Wikipedia turns it into a Studded Blue!

So, what we got is a Common Holly Studded Blue!

 It's the black on the upper wing ends that confuse OTL!

Not to be out done, I said I was going to go hunting sea weed butterflies but unfortunately the tide was out, again!


That Sailling boat has got to be a good mile out to sea!

Just for a change, we headed into the bushes in search of dragonflies but again, all we found were butterflies!

A Peacock Eye Butterfly!

Well, it made a change from the common white or brown things that seem to spend all their time chasing or fighting eachother!

Tomorrow we are off to take the caravan to be serviced so that will give OTL a chance to get the weeds from out of the brickwork on the front drive plus cleaning the gutters in the front of the house!

See you tomorrow.

Luv,

Daisy, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret.
