Great things about being in the pony squashers club

The ground is not too far away if you fall (must try and stop falling off so often!)

Lol. I thought that when Little Lad ditched me . I remember sitting on the ground thinking "Well. That didn't hurt?!" lol. Then again, falling from the 16.3hh DWB hasn't actually hurt, just had bad side effects lol

Hope you stop falling off soon hun

And they eat less, easier to get on, easier to tack up and put rugs on, are stupidly cleaver and are FUN!!!

yay ponies are the best! i still ride my 12.2hh dartmoor pony daily, she is amazing fun, i am now mid 20's (had her for 15 odd years) and she is the best, i ride without a saddle and she is so comfy and game for anything-love ponies yay! long live the pony squasher club hahaha!

Other great things...

* Can now afford fancy rugs that I used to look at wistfully with my proper sized 'orse
* Can do scurry jumping!!
* Can reach all the bits to groom, without resorting to stepladder or windowcleaning harness

(NB: I am 5' so not actually squashing the 13.2hh pony too much)

Ponies are just so much fun!

You never grow old when you have ponies, they keep you youthful and ensure that you see the funny side of things when things get a bit pear shaped, like when they are allowed to get away with doing things that horses wouldnt!!

When your saddle doesn't fit anymore and you haven't found a new one yet, they are easy to climb onto bareback off a decent size mounting block.

You can share them with your children (just not too much!) and take it in turns at the local gymkhana!

Definately a mounting block!. My days of vaulting onto ponies bareback are long gone with my dodgy hips!
