Egg And Chips Today 😋

 


We haven’t really walked that far today. This morning I chose to go a different way to the beach which meant our first walk was quite a bit shorter. I did get a little walk after communion but once I got home I did sleep for quite a long time. Nix says I was tired because I’d been up in the night digging 🫢 



Nix has worked out a new routine. She said as I’m obviously going to be waking her up every night, instead of getting out of bed and putting her dressing gown on and going into the other room to open the doors she will now open the door in the bedroom which she can do without even getting out of bed. The only reason she didn’t do this before was because that makes the bedroom really cold. She said she will do it this way now and put the electric blanket on to keep her warm. So…in the early hours of this morning I woke her up and she just leaned across and opened the door and can you believe it, went back to sleep! I tried staring through the door but it didn’t work. She knew I could get in through the open door so I’m going to have to put my thinking cap on. I don’t want her to go back to sleep while I’m out in the garden digging, I like her to be awake and reading 🙂



We’ve been out for coffee with Jackie this afternoon. We didn’t go to our usual café because they’re quite posh and Nix fancied egg and chips. The egg and chips was very nice apparently but the tables were a bit sticky so I’m not sure we’ll go there again 😕 We did go for a nice walk round the churchyard which made me very happy.


Tomorrow looks like it might be quite nice, warm and sunny with not much wind. We are deciding where to go 🙂

    I am glad Nix has solved the problem of having to get up at night. I know you like to go out but Nix does need her rest too. So nice that you were able to have coffee with Jackie today. I know you like your neighbor very much. Very windy here but warm, tomorrow will be the same. We need rain!!!!

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...
