Too Hot to Trot

 I don’t want to keep repeating myself but it is very hot out there. Nix has been down to the sea but the pavement is too hot for me to get there. 



I’ve been left on my own twice today, once when Nix went to church (there was rhubarb) and again when she went for her splash about in the sea. Don’t tell her but that’s why I’ve been more cuddly just lately, I think I appreciate her a bit more. I hope she’s told you what a good boy I am when she goes out. I don’t panic at all like I used to and sometimes I even have a little nap when she’s gone.



I have had a walk today. This morning before it got too hot we went to the woods. It was still too warm for me though, I don’t really like it and Nix was nearly passing out. It’s much cooler where we live because we get the breeze from the sea. Nix says we can go out again a bit later on when it cools down a bit. At the moment I am resting in the garden and Nix is watching me like a hawk to make sure I don’t dig any more plants up. I like to keep my head in the shade 🙂

It’s My Birthday Tomorrow 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

 We’ve not done a lot today. Nix has been dozing off at various times and to be honest, I’ve been asleep too. It’s quite nice actually not having anything to do. Nix has been working on the church log book so there was lots of tutting, mainly because she couldn’t remember where she’d put anything. Just in case you were wondering, the log book is an account of everything that is added to the church or taken away or repaired. Eventually Nix will fill in the actual document with special ink that doesn’t fade so it will be there for future generations to read.  We did go to the Rec this afternoon as I did need a little walk but we didn’t stay too long, it was very cold. It was also very muddy but not to worry, most of it will fall off tomorrow in time for my birthday 🙂 Speaking of my birthday, I have received quite a lot of presents and cards which is very exciting. At the moment we are waiting for my birthday cake to be delivered, it’s a vanilla sponge with raspberry cream. I sh...

RIP Fripp 5.1.2010 - 8.2.25 😪

  RIP Fripp 5.1.2010 - 8.2.25 My darling Fripp has crossed the bridge 😪 He passed very peacefully this afternoon in a lovely special room with a bed for him and a sofa for me. I am okay, I think, and I know time will heal.  A little bit about my gorgeous boy…he was diagnosed with chronic kidney disease when he was 7. He did really well on his home cooked diet but when he was eight he developed autoimmune thrombocytopenia due to some meds he was given…not by Bron. He went on a high dose of steroids, lost a lot of his coat with his gorgeous tail being almost bald. He survived the disease and went on to become strong but always with the kidney disease in the background.  Some months later he got sick again and went into kidney failure. He spent a week at North Downs Referrals where they discovered his ureter was blocked with a stone and so he received a subcutaneous ureteral bypass from his kidney to his bladder. He was one of the first dogs to get it and I’m told he has be...
