Not a Bad Night Really…



 I had quite a good night last night. Nix left me in my donut beds in the lounge and I was going to join her later but I fell asleep. I had my own lamp on so I wouldn’t wake up in the dark. I did sleep right through until about 4.30am and then I tried to pull the blinds down in the bedroom so it woke Nix up. She just sat with me for a bit and then I got into my bed and went to sleep. So all in all quite a good night. 



We didn’t go to meditation this morning because Nix didn’t think I would enjoy it. We did really miss seeing everyone so it was very nice that Rita came round afterwards and brought us a croissant 😋 



We were just getting ready to go out again when Jackie came to visit which was very nice but I thought maybe she was going to be looking after me while Nix went out so I put on my best trembling performance. It worked and she didn’t stay long after that. Nix said she was never going to leave me but always best to be certain I think. 



This afternoon we have been down to the beach and then home past the houseboats. We stopped off at the shop for Nix to buy some Madeira Cake for me to have my Propalin on. We’re home now and I did start digging but Nix came in and sat with me for a while so I’m thinking I might as well now go to sleep.



Oh yes, Nix decided that as my bills were mounting she would save some money on the shopping. So…last week she ordered no ready meals at all because they are quite expensive and she ordered loads of fresh veg and thingies to go with it and she was very pleased when she saw how much she’d saved. She wasn’t so pleased when she saw how much washing up there was to do, I think the bubble and squeak pan pushed her over the edge. I have a feeling ready meals will be back on the shopping list for next week. May I offer a warning right here and right now. Might I suggest that you don’t send Nix ‘easy’ recipes etc because she is in a very weird state of mind and it might just push her over the edge 🤣

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
