It’s Finally Stopped Raining and We’ve Been to Hove 🙂

 It’s stopped raining 👏👏👏 



We had a very long walk this morning after a very good night’s sleep mainly due to the fact that Nix didn’t wake me up coughing. I think Nix thought because we were out later we would be going out later this afternoon…that would be a no! She tried to ignore me, the staring wasn’t working and she said she was watching a Christmas film. She also said we weren’t due to go out for at least another hour. Nope…not true, we always go out at the same time and it makes absolutely no difference that we’d only been home for an hour. It was hard work I can tell you but in the end I had to bring out the big guns…my Meerkat. He helped me achieve success as she said she couldn’t bear to see him mutilated any more and if I put him down we could go out…result 😇




We decided to go to Hove. As you know Nix has been trying to get her fairy lights which the Post Office had lost. Anyway they eventually turned up back at our old address even though they should have been delivered to the Post Office for us to collect. The woman who lives in our old house messaged Nix to say she had them and she could leave them on the doorstep as she was isolating. This was Christmas Eve so Nix assumed she would still be isolating today. We messaged her to say we could collect the lights today but no response. We decided to go to Hove anyway in the hope she would be in but Nix got a message while we were travelling to say she was going to be out with her family all day! 




We decided to walk down to the seafront anyway so I could jump up on my wall for old times’ sake. I have to say it was very windy indeed and I nearly got blown off.  On the way back we were going to have sausages in the Beach Café but when we got there Nix realised she didn’t have her mask with her. I could have gone in on my own for my sausage, I’ve done it before but I suppose I did get told off…and chucked out without a sausage. Nix says we can have fish and chips tonight 😇




When we are in Hove seafront I also like to spend some time on Felix’s bench. He was a little boy who lived in Hove and he was very sick… sadly he died when he was only six years old 😪

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 hos...

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 ...

Apparently I’m Always in the Way

Image
So Nix doesn’t understand why I am always behind her, she said it’s starting to annoy her apart from being very dangerous. She says if she falls over me and breaks her hip who’s going to look after me. Have you seen her hips, it’d take a sledgehammer to break one of those. Anyway she keeps saying there’s only one way out of the bungalow so I don’t need to follow her around everywhere. That’s not strictly true because there are doors at the back and a door at the side. She could escape without me through any of those...I must be vigilant at all times. So now she has settled down to finish getting my blog into print and it really is painful to watch. She says it takes twelve taps on the iPad to add one photograph on one day of the blog. She also says if there are thirty days in the month that will take her 360 taps. She’s got six months left to do... I shouldn’t hold your breath for this blog if I was you.  There will of course be a quicker way to do it which she will discover next y...
