Church of The Good Shepherd Christmas Fayre

 


Well I haven’t had a moment to myself today. We started off the morning with a trip to the beach. Now I like to take my time, take in some of the aromas and generally have a look around. Nix is more keen to get home and put her feet up…again. This morning she thought she was being very clever by pretending to go without me. I know it might look like I’m panicking in the video but I’m not. I knew she was hiding behind the wall but even so I was glad to actually see her there. Once I knew she hadn’t actually gone without me I took full advantage and went off for some more sniffs. Nix said one of these days she really will leave me behind. She won’t of course, she panics if I even disappear in the bushes for more than a minute.



We hadn’t been home long when there was a knock at the door and there was a surprise package for moi. It was from Ness Keweb and Judith and it is a lovely warm fleecy jumper to keep me really snug and I love the colour. I wanted to try it on straight away even though we were just about to head out to the church Christmas Fayre. Once it was on I didnt want to take it off so I wore it to the Fayre and I was very snug there.



I got a quick walk round the block before we went in to the Fayre and then we settled in to help take care of the book stall. There were lots of people and I got lots of attention and I also sold a few books too. In the afternoon we had a break for tea and lemon drizzle cake and there were craft stalls. I managed to grab a knitted duck on the way past one of the stalls so Nix had to buy it for me. After a little while Nix was given a glass of mulled wine…never a good idea 😱 




Nix says she has got two bruised knees from where she fell over yesterday. She won’t show anyone so we don’t know if this is true and as you know she is prone to exaggeration 🤣 




I was forced to have my photo taken with two elves!

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
