This meant he was awake, had eaten breakfast, was only mildly hungover, and had brushed his hair and beard. Also for once, Sir Mountable said he would join Pete in training at the castle, although he did ask why Pete wanted to become a knight at all. Pete let that one pass by with no response. He was just so happy he was finally going to have his knight at the castle. He was just so happy he would be able to join in training with the other knights. His doubts and depression of the previous week disappeared. He was ready to go. Pete had walked Horsey Horse Horse all the way to Sir Mountable’s, and now he walked him to the castle. Every now and again Sir Mountable asked Pete why he wasn’t riding the horse. Pete would make up a different excuse each time, none of which gave away the real reason … that he couldn’t get up on the thing! ‘Oh, you know, he’s pretty tired. I thought I would just let him walk.’ ‘Well, my knees are extra bony today, and I don’t want to hurt his side.’ ‘I have made an appointment for the horse chiropractor for this afternoon, and I don’t want to do anything that may change the curve in his spine before then.’ ‘The clouds are flowing eastward.’ ‘It’s a Monday.’ Sir Mountable didn’t question any of these excuses.
