Honeysuckle, dressed for the stable in tight black and grey jodhpurs, black sleeveless polo shirt, Hunter welliess, and riding hat, has brought Violet Vixen, in blue denim dungarees, white t-shirt, and Hunters, down to the mudbanks at full high tide, to introduce her to the joys of muddy river bathing, fully-clothed of course.

First they get wet, flooding their wellies and then lowering their bottoms into the water for a good soaking before sitting partly in the water at the river's edge. But then they start scooping out handfuls of riverbank mud from under the water, and covering each other's wet clothes in mud!

Pockets get filled, mud gets smeared all across their outfits and Honeysuckle's hat, and they both end up completely covered in mud and soaked in muddy water.

There's no actual mud shampooing in this one, but they do both end up lying back in the muddy water, Violet's hair, and Honeysuckle's hair and hat, fully in the muddy wash.
