‘It smells like it too,’ she said. ‘I’ll get you a cloth.’

Alfonso attempted to flick the poo from his foot.

‘I’ve landed in worse,’ he said. ‘It just came as a surprise, that’s all.’

At that point the Horntops entered the lobby, chatting happily about food.

‘Norman, wasn’t that buffalo grass a delight?’ said Mrs Horntop.

‘Aye. It was delicious!’ said Norman.

The Horntops were the only two cows in the hotel, and Anna realised she’d have to confront them. But how do you confront someone about the fact they’d left a cowpat on the floor? she wondered. Direct and to the point, she decided.

‘Ah,’ said Anna, ‘Mrs Horntop, might I have a word?’

‘The lunch was wonderful,’ said Mrs Horntop, smiling. ‘As good as we’d hoped! And we’re now heading up to the Barnyard Deli for a grass platter. Isn’t that right, Norman?’

‘Aye, that’s right, Petal,’ said Norman.

‘I’m pleased you’re enjoying yourself,’ said Anna. ‘However, we have a slight issue.’

‘Go on,’ said Mrs Horntop.

‘There’s a cowpat on the floor,’ said Anna, direct and to the point.

‘Hang my hairy horns,’ said Mrs Horntop. ‘So there is! Who would have done such a thing? Norman, have you seen that mess on the floor over there? Awful, isn’t it?’

‘Aye,’ he replied. ‘Terrible. Some cows have no manners.’
