Meditation This Morning and Then a Lovely Walk Down the River 🙂



 Important things first…I am completely better 😇 The vet has been in touch with Nix and I do have a urinary infection. My wee is alkaline and there is blood and protein in it and white blood cells too of course. Nothing to worry about as my wee is often like that, it’s because my kidneys don’t work properly and also I do have a foreign body inside me 😱  Nix still has to wait for the culture results but I expect they’ll be the same as usual and it just means a month of antibiotics which I’ve already started. 



Friday mornings are meditation in the big church over the footbridge. It starts at 8am and I like to have a walk on the beach first but Nix overslept this morning so it was all a bit of a rush. I sleep through the meditation bit and then my favourite part is the tea and croissants afterwards in the parish hall. On the way there I played a joke on Nix and started eating some grass which is what I do when I’m poorly. It really scared her but then I started jumping around and she knew I was alright. 



On the way back we bumped into George and Shaun our neighbours. They have two rescue dogs called Dizzy and Sox and I quite like them. Nix asked the boys as she calls them where they’d been and they told her they’d had bacon sarnies in the graveyard. Nix was trying to recall a cafe called the Graveyard and then suddenly realised they meant the actual graveyard. They all thought that was very funny, I’ll never really get human humour. I mean what’s funny about eating a bacon sarnie in the graveyard, I would definitely eat one if there was one going 😇



We were just approaching the end of our road and Steve our postman was chatting to one of our neighbours. Suddenly I spotted the BCJ on the other side of the road and I went bonkers. I lurched forward and nearly knocked Steve over. It really scared him I think, he did jump a bit. Apparently there’s a thing to do with dogs and postmen. 



As I didn’t get a proper walk before church I suppose I did get a bit demanding just before lunch. Nix was so happy I was well that she took me down the river...I knew it would work 😇

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
