The Tree is up!

 Hi Woofers,

Daisy here again.

Yesterday morning we had Old Two Legs scraping the frost off the windscreen and there seemed to be two layers of frost. It looked like a blast of frost had come across the screen then later that night another blast of frost had landed on top of the first layer.

This morning when he was scraping the frost off, you could see that there was only one layer!

Mind you, it was still a thick layer today, but only one!

We didn't take the camera out of the car when we got down to the sea front. the mist was blowing in and we couldn't see any more than twenty feet in front of us!

Another problem was that we had got up late and everyone had been and gone by the time we got down to the sea wall.

As it was getting towards our lunchtime walk, I managed to blag a chicken chew off OTL.

What I did was to jump up against his leg and when he looked at me, I put a well chewed chew down on the carpet by his feet, sat down and looked deep into his eyes.

Now, I bet there was no way any Two Legs couldn't read what I was saying.

I got my chew!

And not long after that I got the lunchtime walk!

We crossed the football field and saw that the Christmas Tree was up and installed on top of the St James church tower.

Funny thing was the scaffold pole fence around the bottom, I mean, is that over kill?

 Safety First!

Out to sea there was a carrier heading into the mist and fog, normally you could see it for miles but today.........whoosh and it's gone!

 

 Now you see me.........!

 Tomorrow it's forecast that we will be looking at a minus 4 degrees when we go for the morning walk, OTL will be standing outside scraping the frost off the car!

See you all tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy.

-4 Degrees and counting!

 Hello Woofers!

Daisy here.

Well, they promised snow up north and cold down here in the South East and as Old Two Legs and I headed off for the morning stroll the gauge on the car’s dashboard read out minus four degrees Celsius!

In fact, it was so cold the OTL took his knitted gloves with him, the ones he uses when he goes out birdwatching in the cold!

Crossing the football field I spotted a small horse ahead of us, so, I sat down on my backside to watch it walk ahead of me and behind all the bushes.


I don't care what you call him but to me it's a horse called Murphy!


We let Murphy get ahead of us before I climbed up to the top path to see the pre glow of the sun. We even hung around just in case the sun climbed over the horizon but to be honest, it was just too cold to hang about waiting!

A quick look over towards Sheerness showed that the sun had no intention of waking up while we waited so off, we went down to the meadow.

 The best we could do was to catch the plane pretending it was a comet!

 Down in the meadow OTL took a shot at the plant life with what looks like it had six inches of frost on it!

Well, we didn't see any spiders web so plant leaves will have to do!

 As we were heading across the meadow we bumped into a couple of old mates, Dylan and Marley, OTL calls them the 'Two Bob Dogs'! We haven't seen them for ages but the remembered OTL and made a big fuss of him!

There were a couple of hooligans, Bert and Jack, both were doing their 'Hooligan' game of charging around like a pair of demented monsters!

I've not looked at tomorrow’s weather but claws crossed the snow will stay away from our corner of the world.

Bye for now.

 Daisy.
