Episode 122: Mucking out

Instructor:

Horses have thick coats so you can brush quite hard, do you see? Do you want to try Ellie?

Ellie:

Yes please. Oh Alice, isn’t Dusty’s coat gorgeous?

Alice:

It certainly is and you’re grooming her really well.

Ellie:

Alice, can I ask you something?

Alice:

Course you can my dear.

Ellie:

Do you like me?

Alice:

Oh Ellie I think you’re a lovely, smart, brave girl.

Ellie:

It’s just that I was a bit naughty when you were baby-sitting me. My daddy told me off and I thought maybe you’d fallen out with me.

Alice:

Well I was angry with you, that’s true.

Ellie:

Does that mean you’re not my friend?

Alice:

No Ellie, it’s just that …

Ellie:

I’m sorry I was rude to you.
