Too Too Hot Today šŸ˜Ž



 If Nix ever complains about having a horrible summer again I shall remind her of this week. She is passed out on the sofa groaning about how it’s too hot and she can’t cope. She wants to try wearing a fur coat and see how she likes that! To be fair she does go out on the paving stones in her bare feet to make sure it’s okay for me to go out and we only go out early mornings and early evening. Yesterday evening was fun…we drove up to the Harbour Club where there is a sandy beach and the water is very calm…I like that, not too keen on waves. I had a really nice dip and that kept me cool for the rest of the evening.





This morning we had a walk down the boardwalk and as you know as I’ve got older our walks have got shorter. This is the story Nix likes to tell because she can’t face a long walk any longer either. This morning I took it upon myself to head off up the beach past our usual exit and so Nix just had to follow me…it was very nice but I was quite tired when we got home. Nix passed out on the sofa immediately šŸ«¢



Later on this morning we gave our friend Trish a lift to the church because she had to collect some things from there and Nix checked the batteries for the microphone because last Sunday it didn’t work and it was because the batteries were flat. All was well and it was lovely and cool in the church too. 




Rita is coming round soon and she and Nix are going for a dip, Nix says it’s the only thing that will cool her off. Perhaps she will stop moaning then šŸ™„



Nix is very pleased with herself because she got some tuna for half price from Sainsbury’s and she picked some of her French beans and had a very healthy lunch. I didn’t get any because I was in the garden and she’d eaten it all when I came inside 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...
