Long Time No See!

 Hi Woofers!

Daisy, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret here again!

What a damp dismal day it's been today. Wasn't so bad first thing but after that it has been rain and rain!

Not that exciting stuff that pours down the gutters and floods the pond but that damp drizzly stuff that lands on your head and ends up making you wet from your ears down to your paws!

Old Two Legs was looking at the weather forecast and saw a 'Window', well, that's what he called it and off we went in the little car for a walk along the sea front before the dark clouds decided to empty their contents on us!

Mind you, we saw a pair of Two Legs in the distance hiding under an umbrella!

 Maybe it's raining over there and hasn't reached us yet?

You never know with the rain down here, I've known it to be raining where we were, then it wasn't a few yards further on and then after that the heavens were opening up!

 

 

 Well, it's only just damp here!

 

 OTL said that he thought he knew the TL's and then from out of the long grass came Barney, we haven't seen him for ages, in fact we almost didn't recognise him, it was only the gangly way he walks made us realise it was him!

We all stopped for a chat and I couldn't help but notice that Barney was looking a bit grey around the muzzle, a sure sign he is getting old!

 

Never mind my grey hairs, just look at yours!

 

Now, I'm twelve years old and I'm lucky that my grey doesn't show up, it's just the way I'm built!

 

We were having a good chat about life and sniffs when the rain started to decend on us and as there wasn't enough room under the brolly for all of us, we headed off to get to the car before we were soaked through to our skin. Mind you, the rain didn't have far to go 'cos my skin wasn't far from my hair!

 

Listening to the radio we heard that high winds are expected soon, the man said that there was a hurricane out in the Atlantic but it won't reach us.

 

Hmmmm, that's what the last man said back in 1984!

See you tomorrow.

 

Luv,

Daisy, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret.

 

Hunting Diesel!

 Hi Woofers!

Daisy, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret here!

It's been a fun day today, plan to go visit Auntie Zoe and the family this weekend and of course Old Two Legs wants to show off the new car. That being so, he needs to have enough fuel in the tank to get there and back.

Because of the very long queues at the petrol station, we haven't bothered to get any fuel 'cos by the weekend we reckon everyone will have filled up every container they have of fuel and we should be able to walk into the garage without waiting.

Well, that was the idea.

It didn't quite work out that way!

We drove to our normal garage but the queue was about a quarter of a mile long!

OTL drove away and went 'across country' to miss the queue and arrived at two more garages just before the town, no good stopping there, the signs read 'No Fuel'!

Next stop was the Tesco Garage and that was shut as well!

Next stop was in town at the 'Morrisons Shopping Experience' where there was a queue, maybe a couple of hundred yards, so, we joined the line of cars.

The couple of hundred yards wasn't quite right, as soon as we got off the road, we got wound all around the car parking area for another couple of hundred yards!

Finally, we arrived at the pumps and treated the car to a tank full of diesel!

Aunty Zoe, her we come!

By this time, it was well into lunchtime and we headed straight down to the sea side.

I was keeping an eye out on the weather; it had rained on our hunt for diesel earlier on so I didn't want to get wet while having a wee!

We were lucky, even though it was cloudy, it wasn't rainy!

Look! Dry Paws!

We didn't have the sea front to ourselves, first of all there was this Sheep Dog that I had seen before but not said hello to. We stood there looking at each other not knowing who was going to make the first move but, in the end, she got called away by her Two Legs and I was able to pass, mind you, I was down at the bottom of the sea wall!

Don't know if I should round you up or chase your tail!

Well, after that, we bumped into a couple of woofers we know but there was normally three but today only two. We exchanged sniffs and told each other about our losses. They had lost their sister about six months ago. I told them all about Holly and the tale was very similar from both sides.

It's sad when you loose your sister!

Back home OTL and I were having a cuddle on the sofa when The Missus told us there was 'Cooking Fat' in the garden.

Cooking Fat is that nasty cat that hides in the bushes trying to catch and kill the birds that come to our garden to feed.

OTL let me out the back door and I flew after him chasing him over the fence which he cleared in one jump!

I don't think I could get over the fence but I almost got him before he took off!

Next time, there is always next time!

See you tomorrow.

Luv,

Daisy, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret.
