We remember Holly.

 Hi Woofers.

Daisy here.

A day for remembering, Miss Holly Chops left us on 3rd August 2021, it seems just like yesterday and there's not a day goes by that I don't miss her!

Straight on or turn left?

 Holly didn't do swimming; in fact, she didn't like water at all. The nearest she ever got to a swim was when OTL got hold of a paddling pool, filled it up and dropped Holly into the pool

.
 
 Holly was almost paralysed with the water lapping over her paws!

 Holly was always first to the food bowl or out the back door to chase the birds or cats out of the garden.

One thing Holly enjoyed was a good cat chase!

 The storm we were expecting didn't arrive, in fact we had more sunshine than cloud!

Wot storm?

 One good thing, we met up with Devo, fresh back from his holiday in Devon, where ever that is!

It was good to share sniffs again with him!

OTL had to go down to the vet and get a couple of wormng tablets for me. He came back in a bad mood, £10.50 for two tablets!

Still, if it works then it will be worth the cost!

See you tomorrow.

Luv,

Daisy.

Wind, rain, yellow warnings and sunshine!

Hello Woofers.

Daisy here.

I do tire of these weather forecasters, take today.

The weather map is covered with death and destruction showing all over the map, enough rain to sink the Titanic twenty times over, wind blowing this deluge across the UK.

What did we get as we walked across the sea side?

Blue sky and fluffy clouds!

Looking over towards Sheppy there were some dark clouds but not the rain laden monsoon promised!

I would call that dramatic rather than the end of the world!

Driving back we came across some rain drops, not a lot, just enough to wet the screen.


Stuck in traffic there is nothing to do but count the rain drops on the screen!

Our end of the world there are notices up informing us that there is some major construction going on near Grain and the railway bridge will be undergoing major reconstruction work and the traffic loights will keep failing and the speed limit will be reduced to 20mph!


If it gets worse I reckon OTL will start our walks in the fields and finish in the field!


One good thing about the hedgerow being left to grow wild, the insects are coming back!

See you tomorrow, if the floods let us.

Luv,

Daisy.

August already!

Hi Woofers.

Daisy here.

August already and we are half way through woofers the year, everyone has packed up and gone away on holiday, except us!

Well, we went earlier in the year before the mini Two Legs got off school!

It seems rather quiet around the fields so that is an indicator they are all off playing with buckets and spades!

 

We did find one butterfly who was hiding in the hedgrow, tyring to keep out of the wind!

There were no other woofers out first thing, well, none that we could see, no matter how hard I searched and sniffed my way along the paths.

No woofers, no Devo and even Hugo was missing!

Lunchtime walk wasn't any better, no sniffs of woofers anywhere!

I couldn't work out why there were no sniffs, even the fox sniffs had faded away so, not even a roll!

Back home, OTL fell asleep after lunch, well, he's getting old!

OTL got a message on the phone saying that my worming tablet can be picked up from the vet on Friday.

So that is more expense for OTL and a whacking great dustbin lid sized tablet that takes ages to eat!

See you all tomorrow.

Luv,

Daisy.
