By Matt,
Wakened at the crack of dawn, by the used-to-be-a-small-person. She tied my mane and tail in knots, then left me in the stable while she put horrible Charlie who bites my bum out in the field. Then Mum arrived and put my going somewhere special gear on.
Then round the yard and into the little limo. Took ages but then we arrived at a very nice place. Lovely big jumpies in the field just beside and no sign of any boring circley stuff Mum got me out of the limo and then walked me round to the indoor school, where things got very strange A few jumpy stands down at the far end, but nobody pinging over them Lots on little people running around wearing scary colours! Mum stood and gassed for ages, so I flapped my lip and worried a bit!
Then Mum took me back to the limo and put my funny new thing on. All big and padded with no saddle!?! Back to the school and some more funny coloured little people came over and patted me. Then Mum made me go on the lunge and the little people ran towards me!
Mum said good boy then we went in front of a funny person hiding behind a table! And Mum made me run round and round and how am I supposed to watch whats going on when little people keep running over and jumping on me? Then two of them jumped up and sat on me on their own. But that wasn't too bad cos they're very little so I was a good boy and walked round!
Then back to the limo for more polos and hay to eat and a snooze! After ages Mum came back and put my funny thing back on and took me back. There were hundreds of little people zooming around! Very scary! Mum put a funny coloured t-shirt on and made me walk past the jumps! And there were two people hiding behind tables! But I walked round like a good boy while the little people jumped on and off again.
Stood and had a snooze again then Mum came and patted me and told me I'm a good boy Obviously! And she gave me a red ribbon, thats my favourite colour!

Then back home but no jumpies, i'm an eventer! Exhausting day for an old man.
