The Best Route into the Garden

 So there are three ways of me getting into the garden. Nix never uses the side door so I am left with two options. Both of the bedrooms have French (of course) doors leading to the garden. I much prefer exiting through the main bedroom doors in the morning as when I am ready to go for my first walk I can sit in the doorway and stare at Nix who is still in bed. This does not work if I am forced to exit through the spare bedroom like a tradesperson and I am thinking I might start a petition… All Beardies must have direct and immediate access to the garden.



I finally got Nix out of bed and we headed for the beach. Guess what, when we got past the exit where I did an unexpected departure the other day she let me off my lead. I was so happy I cantered all the way up the boardwalk. This had the required effect and made Nix feel really guilty about making me stay on my lead and I am expecting to have a free run of the beach from now on 😇 As the tide was right out we came home along the river bank so I had lots of freedom anyway. 




This afternoon we have been further up the river and it was very sunny but very windy too. I was very well behaved apart from using the muddy path which for some reason seemed to annoy Nix 🙄 She also said the only reason I was well behaved was because we didn’t actually meet any other dogs. I shouldn’t have to put up with such slanderous accusations 😇






I stayed on my own this morning while Nix went shopping. Apparently people were saying they didn’t recognise her without moi…well of course  😇

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...
