There’s No Petrol 😱

 Last night we went for a sunset walk on the beach. Nix took a photo of our road as we were leaving. By the time we got to the beach it was dark so no photos of moi in the sunset... as I’ve said many times before I simply can’t get the staff 🙄 



Nix did manage to get some photos on our walk to church this morning, it was very sunny and the moon was shining brightly in the sky too. I found a stone to do the poopies on as Nix hurt her back a bit and didn’t want to bend…I am so thoughtful 😇





My walk today was cut short because guess what…there is no petrol. We were on our way to one of my favourite walks and as there were no queues at the petrol station Nix decided to stop and fill up. Thing is, the reason there were no queues was because there wasn’t any petrol 🙄 We had to go to our end of the river instead which is nearer so we could save petrol… why can’t the humans get their act together, you don’t see us dogs running out of things… 😇 At least Nix has enough petrol to get her flu jab tomorrow. 





I didn’t tell you yesterday we found a little white dog running across the road by the beach. Two cars had to stop for it and everyone was looking for it’s owner. It was very nervous so I helped Nix herd it back onto the beach where it would be safe from cars. When we got there Nix saw three ladies coming out of the sea and the dog ran up to them. Nix explained that the dog had nearly been hit by a car and the lady who owned the dog said nothing. She didn’t thank us for bringing him safely back and didn’t even seem relieved to see him. Nix told the owner if she found the dog running across the road again she was going to call the dog warden and she could pay to get him out of the doggy place they would take him to. 


Nix said we might go somewhere on the bus tomorrow so that will be fun, I shall like that 😇

Everything You Wanted to Know About Fripp

Image
My name is Fripp aka The Fripster, I am a Bearded Collie and I came to live with Nix when I was two years old.  I spent the first two years of my life living in Monaco but my owners couldn’t keep me because they were working long hours. Even though Nix lives in the UK she saw me and wanted me, naturally, and so my breeder brought me to the UK when she was visiting Crufts. Nix says she had no idea what she was letting herself in for and if I hadn’t come all the way from France she’d have sent me straight back the next day. She said I was completely untrained, tried to kill the cat and had separation anxiety so bad I would knock her over rather than let her get to the front door. None of this is true of course.  Nix and I have lived in perfect harmony for the last eight years even though she might say different. I got very sick when I was seven with an autoimmune disease called IMTP but I recovered from that even though I was bald for a while. Then a year later I ended up in hospital wit

Too Much Noisy Rain

Image
 Last night it started to rain, a lot, and as you know I do not like it when it rains, it scares me. I don’t mind it when I’m out on my walk as you can see from my photos but I don’t like it when I’m inside. I just couldn’t help myself, I had to get off the bed and start digging. Nix was very understanding for once but she does try to get me back on the bed. In the end I gave up and got on the bed and was just drifting off when there was this really loud scary noise. Nix said it sounded like a very loud demented dalek whatever that is...it was very scary and made me and Nix really jump. Turned out to be something to do with her phone and the battery going...is it too much to ask that she keep a check on these things, nearly gave me a heart attack.  It hasn’t stopped raining all day so there are only photos of me wet. I didn’t stay wet for long, I blotted myself off on the sofa first and then Nix’s bed. She thought there were towels on it but I’d dug them all up. The best news today is

Big Boats and Little Dogs

Image
 There was a very big boat making a lot of noise when we got to the beach this morning. Nix thought that it was very interesting, me not so much. I suppose it shows just how boring Nix’s life really is.  We went down the river this afternoon. You know how Nix has always been scared of going over the bridge over the busy road. Well now she’s decided she doesn’t like going under the busy road either. I think the lockdown thingy has finally done it’s worst. She says it’s worse coming back because she can see it in the distance and knows she’s got to go under it eventually. I like it under there, it’s really noisy and you can hear the lorries above you racing along.  I like to think I took her mind off going under the bridge by perfecting another one of my annoying habits. I like to walk right behind her and when she looks over her right shoulder to make sure I’m still there I overtake her on the left. She thinks I’ve gone AWOL and starts panicking and calling me but I’m behind her all the
