Plotting against the pony

[dafthoss]

I'm sure horsey people shouldnt be allowed in to pound shops , whilst waiting for mum to have something done to her eyes that ment she couldnt drive home I ventured in to the pound shop.......


..and here is what I came home with
- trelis to make in to a filler
- a tarpaulin to make a water tray
- an inflatable dolphin for the pony to jump

The last one mum told me would scare the pony, funny thats the plan mum well sort of the plan is to make him braver over odd looking jumps. I also spied one of them reflective things to put in the windscreen of the car that I fancied for when we have sorted this lot

Quick photo mainly so you can see the awesome dolphin who as it happens now needs a name.

Poor yellow pony Like the idea a lot- how will you secure said dolphin, in case YP decides to defend himself (dolphins are well known for their vicious and unprovoked attacks, of course) and goes a bit kung fu on it?

Oh i'm sooo looking forward to the photoshoot that's going to acompany this little box of tricks!!

Loving the dolphin Poor yellow pony serves him right though

he must be... er... dylan the dolphin? Derek? Dolly? D...D...d... errr... nope out of D names now

 

[dafthoss]

Well I dont think the dolphin needs any spirafixes and I highly doubt the yellow pony will get any where near him by choice so its just me thats going to need my superglue out

PI ha yep I'll get mum on the case with the video

JFTD can you tell I'm not particularly fond of him still

You know you have to call it flipper. Or beach-ers brook for when you clear it.

I used to have a pony whose response to filler he disliked was to remove them, either by kicking them over then ploughing through the fence or by attempting to eat them Clearly does need spirafixes- rotational waiting to happen You could fill it with water to try and counteract the blowing away aspect though, which were my original thoughts on the fixing!

hehe we used to jump spare kayaks ooo those industrial paint trays painted blue make good water trays too. Good luck I think bob bob is always a good name

 

[dafthoss]

Lolo - we have the I'm not going near that! *stop and run in the other direction* . He might be getting a little damp inside if I use him on a windy day but I'm going to take him down there tomorrow and just throw him round the field . Its ok though he would act as an air vest if we had a rotational

Sadly I dont have any kyaks although I was contemplating getting some rubber ducks to go in the water tray

Think I'm going to call him Dave

Love that dolphin so much.
Would love to see yellow pony's reaction too, let us know what the poor horse thinks

 

[dafthoss]

m-m - trust me he's not a poor pony! Yesterday he completly downed tools on me and refused to even consider jumping the tiny 2'3 log so got us eliminated then refused to even walk . I think I will take the video down and film his introduction to dave

I like Dave There were some rather cute woolly sheep and scarecrows at Blair wh last year

 

[Shantara]

Haha! Poor Ned suffers a similar fate.

I have (for when I have more time):

2 huge flags
tarpaulin x2
Mr. Stick (bag on a stick)
balloons
umbrellas

Poor horses!

This so made me laugh when I saw the dolphin Not sure who I feel more sorry for the pony or the dolphin But look forward to seeing the update on this one
Oh I so want one of those dolphins for myself
