Excuse me, my good sir, but would you like to go riding today?
--Why certainly. I have let far too much time pass since I have enjoyed equestrian pursuits.
Very good. Shall I come around 8 then?
--Yes, yes. Jolly good.
(some hours later....)
--I'll be dashed if this isn't the most pleasant thing I've done all summer. Wait, I think I'll say all year. Yes, this is the most pleasant thing I've done all year. I must thank you for inviting me.
Oh, it nothing. My pleasure. I do find the brisk...Look Out!!
--Oh, I say!!
Oy, chap. Are you all right?
--Yes, yes. It wasn't a long fall. All this mud makes it look much worse.
Very good. Will you be able to ride back to the manor?
--Certainly. And if you retrieve my horse, we can enjoy a bit more of the evening before we return.
You mean you wish to continue?
--Of course. A simple fall won't keep me from riding. I'll just pay more attention in the future.
Hear, hear! Good spirit, lad! I'll fetch your mount.
--And I'll try to remove a bit of this mud.
