You may jest Mrs M but I once bought a cob who was built like the proverbial brick outhouse. Included in the sale was HIS entire wardrobe, everything was pink!! (He didn't even come from a teenager, his previous owner was a middle aged lady)

Ooh errr.... that sounds like me... it's accidental, I tell you!!! Pink is the only colour in the sale these days............:(:(:(
 
I'm sorry to ask - if it's already been asked before, but I have a problem with my horse, and I just don't know what to do.

When I brought him in from the field last week he was very lame. There was no noticeable heat or swelling anywhere - however his back right leg seemed to be twisted the wrong way, and had a large open cut running down it. Should I call the vet, or just wait to see if it corrects itself??

I'm so, so worried.........
 
Amymay - this will be your horse playing a wicked practical joke on you to try to get out of work. Before you call the vet, I would advise at least 10 sessions with a horse whisperer and I would also enter him in a hunter trial at the weekend, just to show you mean business.
If you are REALLY worried, trot him up in his rug and ask your next door livery's best mate's mum's cousin to have a quick look. If they say he's fine, he's fine.
 
Thanks Flicker, you've really put my mind at rest - I've been soooo worried. I will definately do what you advise. I was thinking of getting my best friends mum to look at him, because she's got lots of experience with hamsters - but think your suggestion is better.

So relieved. Thanks:D:D

That's reminded me that I DID doll madam up in a pink (plain :( ) fleece with pink stable bandages and a pink headcollar, but I can't find the photos!
I think your getup is utterly charming and very flattering :)

Thank you PF! You have so put my mind at rest, I can sleep easy now :D. I can ignore all those who said that such an outfit, caring nothing for the pony's masculinity, caused him to turn into a raving nut job and have to be retired to a life as Chief Grass Eater in Residence :cool::eek::D:D
 
OMG. Mrs M where do I get some of those togs? I think the Destroyer would look so manly in such an ensemble.

PS avoid the underwear issues by not wearing any or better still flashing the racy black pair you have on through a well thought out "rip" in your jods. The pony club dads love it...

Thanks. I've learnt from the Master (Mistress?) :D

Amymay, I am glad I've put your mind at rest. One other thing, sighing loudly and complaining about your 'broken pony' in the vicinity of anyone who might possibly give half a shiv speeds up recovery. It is a scientific fact.
 
Rolling on the floor wetting the lacy ensemble (in black) at the thought of the Destroyer in that get-up :D:D:D:D

Warning re wearing the smaller items under one's jodhs - I managed to put a hole in m'bum the other week!:eek: Think: long hack (three hours); small undies; jodhs slightly too big on waist; rising trot; and the laws of physics (friction) Bad. Very, very bad!
 
Hovis would look FAB in pink. It is a true sign of a horse assured of his own sexuality to wear pink with the confidence that the Destroyer would surely possess in such a shade.
 
Having real trouble with my new 17.2hh horse. I took him to the show at the weekend and he won the wrong colour rosette at pony club! Now my mummy (who knows more than my instructor - real shame she has never ridden herself) said that it is the fault of that awful lady who sold it us as she said it was a highly schooled eventing horse and it can't be me as I won every time on my 14.2hh pony. Please advise if I should take her to court and sue for emotional stress and embarrassment and make her pay for a new one (it would again have to be my favorite color with four white socks a star on it's face, like the one on my Wii game). Or should I just go around telling all my PC friends how awful she is and how I got ripped off...

No thanks, (as you will probably not answer my demand immediately)

Absolutely, the ensemble is just not quite there without it.

Some sparkles too. You should consider replacing the bow on the browband with two small furry pink dice. Would be ever so tasteful.

She does hack out in pink reflective boots not on PF tho............................. ;)

That is seriously impressive, can I come and be your acolyte and live in your garden shed? :D

One time I wore entirely the wrong pants for a dressage test and the chafe was terrible to speak of. I placed 6th, but I'm sure I could have placed 4th if there hadn't been so much agonised wriggling on my part :o

Certainly, you come and acolyte all you like m'duck, what you do in the privacy of the shed is entirely up to you, just clean up afterwards if you'd be so kind as the hermit will no doubt requiring it back in clean order.

Now have a really bizarre image of you wriggling your way round a dressage test - did the judge make any comments on your sheet?

PF - is she right?
The Destroyer is ginger with a bizarre Stilton esque mottling up his neck at present. Will the pink make him look more manly or like a mouldy cupcake?

In your educated opinion is the lack of pinkness in his wardrobe the contributing factor behind Carl "what does he know about dressage" Hesters refusal to take him to the Olympics for me?

Dear Spoilt,
Thanks for your letter. How very vexing for you not to win all the time. I'm afraid several people are at fault here; your instructor for not teaching you properly, your mother for not buying you a better horse, preferably the supreme champion at HOYS and the person who sold you the horse for not realising that her horse was unworthy of your talents.
Sue the lot of them and then slag them off as well.

This is indeed correct.
I once competed Antifaz (as ginger as they come) in pink and my then BF was in the stands watching. Someone commented 'Nice horse, but WHY all the pink???' and by way of explanation he said 'She's English' to which the entire stand went 'Ohhhh,' as if that settled the matter ;)

Yes, definitely.
 
Dear PF,

Please answer a conundrum that has been plaguing me for many days. Is my horse's performance directly or inversely proportional to the amount of Swarovski on my browband? I cannot tell because I am too blinded by the light.

Thank you.

Flicker.

It is directly proportional, but you should be aware the effect is incrementally heightened by matching your bandages to your saddle pad, headband, top, etc...
Oh, and wear sunglasses :)
