Thunder Storms are a coming, maybe!

Hello Woofers!

Daisy, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret here.

Well, here we are, day two and there was a small burst of sunlight this  morning. Old Two Legs even stopped on the way out this morning to grab a shot.

The beginning or the end of a sunrise?

There was just too much cloud low down to get a good sunrise, but when we got down to the sea front there was enough to make you squint into the sun!

About thirty minutes too late!

There were a few woofers around but, in the distance, and we passed Max and Oscar as we crossed the football field.

There were plenty of sniffs and I even found a sniff to roll in but as it was all sort of dried up, I didn't manage to get it spread all over my back!

Just as I was getting going OTL shouted at me to 'Get Up' and then called me a 'Smelly Erbert'!

He's got such a way with words!

The wind was blowing the Wind Turbine and the sun was glinting off the blades, making them glitter as they rotated around.

OTL says one day he will try to photograph the turbines so that it looks like the blades are bending. He says it's done by slowing the shutter speed and increasing the aperture.

Sounds a bit technical for me!


This afternoon we got a Thunderstorm Warning across the south of England and as I write this blog they are supposed to be booming and crashing across us, but, it 'aint!

It's got dark but no sign of a Thunderstorm or lightening flashing across the sky!

OTL has got the camera and tripod set up, just in case. If we catch anything we'll show you tomorrow!

Bye for now.

Luv,

Daisy, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret.

It's Back Again!

 Hello Woofers!

Daisy, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret here.

Well now, Happy New Year to all you Woofers out there. I'm afraid that last night I got too sleepy to stay awake until midnight, I headed off for snoozy time just after The Missus climbed up the stairs. Old Two Legs on the other paw stayed up, watched the 007 movie and was wide awake when all the whizz bangs went off along the river Thames!

OTL said that he didn't hear any whizzing noises in the village, so that means it was too cold, too wet or too late! I was snoozing on the heated blanket and didn't hear a thing!

Well, all this staying up late ended up with OTL getting up a whole hour later than normal. Mind you, I didn't mind 'cos that means I could stay in bed an hour later than normal!

When I got up and took a look out the window, I saw that the sky was clear and the sunrise was getting close!

 Just look at that, Grain Docks and the Gas store!

OTL didn't hang about, he was off and running to get down to Grain Sea Front to catch the sunrise!

I mean, the first day of the new year and we get a sunrise!

Running across the football field and up past the Two Trees the sky looked like it was closing down on us!


Are we too late?

 You know, I didn't even stop for a wee and as we got closer to the bench, we saw Max and Oscar sniffing around plus a couple of Two Legs watching the sunrise!

  The Watchers on the Hill!

 We finally got there and just in time to catch the sunrise!


 The first of many?

Now, that's a good sign for the coming year!

Bye for now.

Luv,

Daisy, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret.
