A Visit From Carolyn and a Lovely Walk in Buckingham Park šŸ™‚

 





The good news is that my new bed has filled out very nicely though I don’t think it will ever resemble the one in the photo. It is however very comfortable and I slept on it all night long. The trembling hasn’t come back which is good and I’m feeling much better. Nix and I are travelling to the vets tomorrow to drop off a urine sample so I can show them how well I look. Nix also put two of the doughnut beds together so I wouldn’t be so close to the floor and I rather like that but my choice would be my new bed. I think Nix might have to get me some more because there’s lots of room in them and I can lie out straight…not that I do of course. 






Although it’s been a quiet day for me today, Nix has been quite busy. We did have a walk along the beach this morning and a bit later we drove to the station to collect Carolyn one of Nix’s friends from London. Their gardens used to back on to each other and it was a long time ago, before Carolyn had any children and they are all grown up now. They had a hair colouring session and put the world to rights and I got to rest my head in Carolyn’s lap. Then it was time to drop Carolyn off at the station again so she could catch her train home to London. 




We went straight from the station to Buckingham Park so I could have a walk before the rain started. I met a very nice Shih Tzu called Daisy, she was just four months old. She wanted to get lots of fuss from Nix so I had to bark quite a lot just to let her know who Nix prefers šŸ„°






Nix has been cooking her dinner in the over for one hour… cod, spinach, cheese and potato gratin! It’s a very expensive way to cook so she doesn’t do it that often. She just went to get it out of the oven with her new over gloves and lost her grip…she’s not amused šŸ«¢

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...
