My Bed Went To Church Today…I Liked It 🙂

 


So Nix tells me that a few of my fans are a bit worried about me showing off my bottom when it’s windy. I must impress that it’s not my bottom that is windy you understand, just the weather 🫢 Now the thing is I can’t put my back legs through the elastic on my coat because of my arthritis and because of my not having a ball joint in one of my hips. I must say Nix has tried her best with press studs and Velcro but none of them seem to work. My bottom is only exposed when I turn my back on the wind which I try not to do too often. We walk from west to east and our wind usually blows off the sea which is south hence no exposed bottoms. Having said all this I know how much you all worry about me so I have asked Nix to buy me another coat especially for wet and windy days. I shall include a photo at the end and you must tell me what you think…it’s waterproof and will be very easy for me to get on. It has two leg holes which I can just stand on and Nix can lift the jacket up and then guess what…it zips all the way up my back. It’s also got a little halter attached to it but Nix says we won’t use that until the BCJ has moved far away. They are still there at the moment but I think they must be going soon. Oh yes the coat comes in lots of different sizes so Nix is going to measure me later. 



This morning we took my donut bed to church. I really loved having it and I went to sleep very quickly and I didn’t even wake up when they sang happy birthday to Jane our vicar’s father Norman. He is 98 and he still rides his bicycle, he’s amazing. 





We’ve just had a quick walk down by the river but it was very miserable and rainy. It was also very muddy with lots of flooding. Nix went to pick up my poo and nearly got a slug as well…she was freaking out 🙄 On the way home she bought something very weird for her lunch, a pretend duck wrap. It smelled pretty good to me so she gave me a piece of the pretend duck and it was very nice, I ate it all 😋




Best news, we made over £2200 at the Christmas Fayre so we’re all very pleased with that.

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
