I Missed the BCJ Twice!!!



 We’ve had a very leisurely day today and I’ve quite liked it. It is rather hot when the sun is out so I’ve been laying in the shade in the garden while Nix has been reading her book. Can I just say that there is a cat on the cover of the book, I don’t know what’s that’s all about plus Nix falls asleep after about two pages so it’s going to be a long read 🙄




News of Shelle my groomer who was driving out to Romania to take doggie goodies like food and beds for the pets who had fled Ukraine with their owners. They reached there and it’s been very sad but a nice story is that as they were driving Shelle spotted a black dog in the trees at the side of the road. They stopped the van and Shelle went and got him. He’d been hit by a car but he’s recovering now and he’s safe. As you know there are many homeless dogs in Romania and now they have lots from Ukraine too 😪 Shelle is off to the Hungarian Polish border today to drop off clothes then she will be coming home.





Guess what, apparently I missed the BCJ last night, I am absolutely furious 😳 We were walking around the block and we always cross over the road when we get near where he lives just in case. I was having a good old sniff and Nix thought she saw someone going into the house where he lives.  She turned round to have a good look and she realised they had the BCG with them. I knew nothing of this and I wasn’t informed until we got home and I’m absolutely furious, it’s just not good enough 🤣 Can you believe it happened again today when we were walking back over the bridge. Again I was having a sniff, minding my own business when who should walk past but the BCJ!  I didn’t see him, it was only because Nix suddenly turned round and started dragging me off in the opposite direction that I knew something was up. I kicked off a bit, just enough to embarrass her but to be honest I didn’t really know why I was doing it. That’s twice in two days I’ve missed him, third time lucky that’s what I say.  I wee’d up a parked bicycle outside a café and Nix got told off 🤭





My neck is much better today and Nix says I won’t need antibiotics which I’m glad about. I don’t eat very well when I have to take them and Nix says I need to put on a little bit of extra weight…she just wants me to catch up with her 🤣

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
