I’m in the Bad Books Again šŸ˜‡

 To say I’m in the bad books would be putting it mildly. I fell asleep in the spare room last night and didn’t wake up when Nix went to bed. It’s not my fault if she decided to get a ‘tickle in her throat’ in the middle of the night and wake me up coughing. Yes I know I threw myself at the French doors but what’s a chap meant to do. I thought I’d made it quite clear, I don’t want to be in the same house as the coughing, I don’t like it. In the end she got out of bed and came charging  into the spare room to tell me that I couldn’t go out, it was too wet and back to bed she went. Well if I can’t go out through the French doors then I’m going to have to dig my way out. Out of bed she got again and ordered me out of the spare room. I tried to get at the shower tray but I was ordered out of the bathroom and then do you know what…she went back to bed and shut me out! She obviously felt bad after a bit and opened the door but I stayed in my bed in the lounge. I know she hates it when I’m not in there with her so she won’t be shutting me out again. 




We went to the beach for our walk this morning and apparently I was badly behaved again. I wouldn’t really agree that completely ignoring everything she said was being badly behaved. Anyway after the escape attempts during the night I knew the morning’s walk was never going to end well. The final straw was when I was trying to locate the dead fish…Nix was calling me but I was on a mission. She comes charging over and grabs my collar but I wasn’t expecting it and so I growled at her…oops, I shan’t be doing that again, boy was she mad. I was marched home and sent to my room to think about what I’d done. 




I did stay in the spare room for quite a while but then it was time for our afternoon walk. I didn’t think I’d risk barking as her nerves are already on a knife edge so I have perfected this sort of rumble which seemed to work very well. We didn’t go anywhere particularly exciting, just around the block and down by the river but it was better than nothing I suppose. I bumped into a post, Nix said it was because I wasn’t watching where I was going, too busy minding everyone else’s business šŸ˜‡

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
