Nix Is Tired Today, Not Sure Why šŸ¤”

 


Ladies and gentlemen, fans and followers, I am happy to announce that I have won the battle of the middle of the night garden visits. Nix has finally had to give in and she has accepted that she is going to have to let me out in the garden when I wake in the middle of the night. I woke her at 1.30am this morning and she tried to trick me by sitting on the sofa and watching TV. She honestly thought I was going to get in my bed and go to sleep…non!  After she let me out she went back to bed and didn’t wake up, in the garden until 5am this morning. She checked the bungalow and I was nowhere to be seen and she was just contemplating going into the garden to check on me when I walked in. 



So… not only have I won this battle, but I think Nix is going to get me some kind of a house to sleep in just in case it starts to rain in the middle of the night. She’s also talking about getting a camera so she can check I’m okay without actually getting out of bed because for some reason she doesn’t want to get her dressing gown on and her shoes and wander around the garden in the middle of the night, I have no idea why. So…any thoughts on cameras, Nix says cheap ones. She is going to look for a second hand kennel locally and make it nice and comfortable for me. I need a Rob Beddington because he made a lovely shelter for Evie. 



Because Nix was up half the night she didn’t wake up until 8am this morning which was a bit late as we had lots to do in church... well she did, I just went to sleep. It was very nice to meet Bill and Judy. Nix 'met' Bill on the Churchwardens group on Facebook and he was really helpful when they were setting up the sound system.  They live in Steyning which is quite close to us and they decided to pay us a visit. That was very nice and they looked after me when Nix had to go and do things. We had a fire drill at the end of the service and Nix left my bed behind!



This afternoon we took a walk into town but we haven’t really done that much, Nix says she is too tired, can’t think why. 



We are having an art installation in the church of paper doves ready for Remembrance Sunday. We have all written our prayers on them for peace in our world and there is going to be one very big paper dove which will hang from the ceiling. I’m looking forward to that šŸ¤£

    I love your adventures! You are so fortunate to belong to such a wonderful church with kind and friendly people. I think a house for you in the garden might just be a good thing. Hope Nix gets some rest tonite - and you too! Hugs to both of you. Hope to be back on Facebook soon. xxxooo

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
