Hove Park Today Just Like Old Times 😇



 We went back to Hove this morning, we used to live there before we moved to Shoreham-by-Sea. The reason we went there was because I had just a teeny weeny acccident in the night and I’m afraid it went through to the duvet.  Nix put a clean duvet on and we’ve got a nice clean duvet cover on too and Nix has placed a towel between that and the duvet so all should be well if it happens again. Nix said she couldn’t face washing the ‘smelly old duvet’ herself and we don’t have a launderette nearby so off to Hove we went because they have a launderette with a big washing machine and they don’t mind touching my wee 😇 I shall probably have to go and see Bron my vet just to make sure my bypass is all working properly. I have been taking my medicine three times a day and I think I’m on the maximum dose now so we’ll have to see what she wants to do. My flush is due next month so I might have to go sooner for that. 





Anyway a visit to Hove always entails a visit to Hove Park so I am very happy about that. There were loads of squirrels and I enjoyed chasing them and there were loads of dogs too.  Nix said I was ‘charming’ with all the other dogs…if you don’t count the ‘Weimaraner’ but who counts a Weimaraner 😇 Nix had some apple cake which she said was disgusting, I didn’t mind it myself🙂




This morning the postman brought a special package addressed to Monsieur Fripp Cuthell. I wanted to open it myself but Nix said I couldn’t because we didn’t know what was in it. Nix opened it for me and it had treats inside…venison and duck. Nix says I am a very lucky boy and she says the person who sent it has to own up so we can thank them.

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
