The My Little Pony Gymkhana

I tried to tell myself it was just a herd of My Little Ponies* magically come to life having a gymkhana in the attic but the exterminator reckons it's rats. Rats? So you're sure it's not a gang of Labrador puppies playing with a bumper pack of toilet roll under the floorboards?

Rats! And I have to have a baby here! Well that's what I get for buying a cute little terrace house by the sea. Full of character. Or characters, as it turns out.

As I lie awake at 3AM I still tell myself it's just Moonbeam with her clumpy purple hooves galloping towards the next fence. 'Go on Moonbeam you can do it!' the other MLPs neigh. It makes me feel that little bit better.

*Just for the record I was (sadly) too old for the My Little Pony craze myself but my little sister had quite the collection so I would be very familiar with them.

So that's where Annie got that from. Whenever she used to say it I'd go 'stop it stop!' for some reason I couldn't stand it!
