The Blue Horse
“Katie longed for something cool.
I scream!
You scream!
We all scream For icecream!
The chant went up among the younger children and Katie ended up taking Hannah and two of the cousins on a walk about a mile up the road to the shops. It was sweltering. Davey sat in the old buggy and the rest of them walked slowly in the heat.
The small newsagent and sweetshop was set in the middle of a cluster of houses. Prices were far too high for the weekly groceries but they went there fo...r the odd thing. When they got through the heavy swing door they all stood at the icecream cabinet looking at the pictures and trying to decide which one to choose.
Two boys aged about eleven or twelve came in after them and stood near the biscuit shelf watching them.
‘I want an orange ice-pop,’ Katie’s cousin Miley decided.
‘Hannah and I want a choc-ice,’ said Bridey.MoreLess
