Nix Is Better And We Got A New Coffee Machine



I know you like to read about my adventures but I thought I should let you know about Nix. The doctor called yesterday and he had quite a long discussion with Nix and he asked her lots of questions. His diagnosis is vertigo which is hilarious really because Nix is absolutely terrified of heights, she won’t even go up the loft ladder 🙄 Anyway she has to put olive oil drops in one of her ears because it is blocked and if that doesn’t do the trick she will have to have her ear syringed. Nix isn’t amused because apparently you used to be able to get your ears syringed at the doctors, not any longer, you have to go somewhere and pay for it…let’s hope the olive oil works 🙂 Thank you for all the messages, we haven’t had time to read them all but getting there. Nix got almost as many messages as I did when I was sick. Speaking of me being sick…it all started when I was seven and the horrible vet at the referral practice only gave me a two to three year prognosis. My vet Bron was a bit cross with the referrral vet because it wasn’t really her place to say and anyway she was completely wrong because I shall be 13 next Thursday 🙂👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼



We, well Nix, has to say thank you to Max Smothers and Jeannette Smothers because they sent Nix a Sainsbury’s voucher so she could buy lots of turkey mince for moi. Well of course I’ve gone off the turkey mince now and am enjoying my junk food as Nix calls it and so can you believe it, she bought a coffee machine instead. I wouldn’t mind but Nix doesn’t even drink coffee really but she says her friends do and it makes hot chocolate too. She’s just about to go onto YouTube to see how to work it 🙂



We’ve been to the old golf course at Brooklands park this afternoon. Nix forgot to put my coat on but I wasn’t cold as the sun was out and there wasn’t much wind. I wish they’d hurry up and build the café, Nix and I used to stop for tea and lemon drizzle. Hopefully it will be ready by the summer 🙂

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...
