"Stop" Cried Saph and the carriage halted leaving Waterhog to grunt in frustration. Still the noise continued and got louder as Saph and Salman dismounted followed closely behind by FaiReece who was buzzing around frantically.
Saph pushed apart two branches and there in front of them was a small baby reindeer huddling close to itself to keep warm.
"Wow" Salman exclaimed. "Who are you"
The reindeer stopped making noise and looked Saph in the eyes. Saph decided to ask it a question.
"What are you doing in here?" She said
"I'm Cudolph!" Said the Reindeer.
"Are you cold Cudolph?" Salman said.
"I'm hiding inside this bush from an evil man that keeps trying to make me shop at Asda" said Cudolph
"Ah we've seen him. I wouldn't worry about him he is busy eating Pringles, they cost £1 apparently. A good deal don't you think?" Saph said.
"Yes I'm very cold!" The reindeer replied.
Saph and Salman screwed their faces in confusion.
" ok listen here you silly little...." Salman could barely finish before Saph nudged him and threw him off.
"I get it, he doesn't answer your question directly, he seems to only answer the question before." She whispered to Salman.
Salman gave a look of disgust and rubbed his shoulder.
"We could do with another reindeer to drive us. Would you like to come with us on our adventure?" Saph asked endearingly.
"Yes it's a great deal!" Cudolph exclaimed.
Saph smiled to herself.
"What do you think of my friend Salman"
"Yes I'll join you!"
"Good" she said. "Let's head back to the carriage."
So everybody trudged back to the carriage with Waterhog securing Cudolph with a harness and running him gently on the head. Soon they were off again.
"I can't wait to ask Cudolph another question" Saph laughed to herself.
"Why?" Salman asked confused.
"Because I get a feeling I'm going to enjoy the answer...."

Saph, you are just being annoying now moaned Salman and he huffily put on his headphones and listened to some Rhianna tunes, meanwhile Cudolph was working up a sweat out front he wasn't used to being worked so hard, so he made an emergency stop outside the Arista Cafe depositing his passengers in a heap outside the door, inside Sooty was playing some easy listening music and a few honeys were serving behind the counter, the honey's in question Blackdagger and Drew were dressed up as Elves and looking none to happy about it, the Cafe was rammed with regulars who were eager to see the honey's working up a sweat....
