Mill Hill And Coffee With Rita



 So it was quite weird not going to our Friday morning session but having said that I did wake Nix up at 4am so I could go out and star gaze. Do you know how I wake her up, I sort of dance and my claws on the hard floors make a tapping noise…works every time. I don’t go to the loo while I’m out there so Nix was surprised when we both slept until 8am…apparently I have the constitution of an ox whatever that means 🤔



We had our first walk down the beach but just a short one because we then headed over the bridge to meet Rita for coffee. We went to a new café which was very nice and Nix had something with apples on it…personally I did miss the Friday morning croissant. There was a very nice lady sitting next to us and I got a lot of cuddles from her, she was very nice, I liked her. 





We set out for our early afternoon walk and Nix was going to go to Buckingham Park again but as it was such a sunny day without too much wind she decided we should go to Mill Hill. I really like it there because the hill is completed in the car and then it’s fairly flat to walk on. There weren’t many people up there, just a couple of dogs and their owners. 





I have had my lunch and I am now going for a nap in the garden.  Nix has her vaccination later so I shall stay on my own because she won’t be long and I’ll probably be asleep. 






Tomorrow morning there is a fund raising coffee morning at the local Methodist church so we might go there. In the evening we shall be sad to miss our church quiz but Nix didn’t think it would be good for me as I’m usually asleep at that time and it means getting in and out of the car which isn’t that good for me. Never mind, we hope everyone has a great time and lots of money is raised.

    The new cafe sounds very nice. I am sorry you didn't have any croissant though! Maybe there is another place that offers them or Nix could buy one or two and let you have a bit of them!!!

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

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 year
