We’re Going to Have a Street Party for the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee 🙂



 Can you believe we’re still taking it easy. The rain hasn’t helped, no one really wants to go out in that. When I say ‘no one’ that basically means Nix because I like the rain. We did go out last night to see the sunset which was nice but today we haven’t really done that much. We had a quick walk down the beach this morning in the drizzle and then we came home. 



Oh yes we did go to the big decorators’ shop and Nix bought stuff to kill the ants, stuff to kill the slugs and stuff to make the flowers grow. She says she doesn’t like killing things but you’d never know 🙄 We went to Buckingham Park afterwards and it was completely empty. Humans don’t like the rain, you have to train them.




I am very excited because we’re going to have a street party on 2nd June for the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee Thingy. We will be able to visit everyone’s gardens to say hello and have cups of tea and glasses of Prosecco. Nix says it reminds her of when she was seven and it was the Queens Coronation and they had a street party then. There was a fancy dress competition and Nix‘s mum had two rosettes made one for Nix to wear on her head and one for her chest and she won the competition. She had to take part in the parade afterwards and one of her sandals broke, funny isn’t it the things humans remember! I’d just remember if the food ran out 😋



Nix just video’d an ant carrying a piece of food that was twice the size of himself. She says she’s glad she bought the ant killer as they’re trying to take over 🫣

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...
