A bit late for regrets now, hopefully it will be nice surprise rather than horrible shock. It's just so cochineal when was aiming for subtle pastel pink.

Anyway you'll be fine on the horse shit front because everyone knows the only colour that works with brown is pink.

he looks like your name, poor sod

That pony charity will be asking for a photy

Abused and Degraded? Can you help?
Just £5 a month can prevent the needless suffering of a pony like this. £30 a month will pay for rehabilitative therapy.

DAmn that first ques mark is wrong

DavidHameron · 14/05/2010 18:59

Just a thought: if your DD is going to offer rides to the party-goers, DO make sure you have an explanation ready for all the gore-stained thighs of all the seven year olds, won't you?

ditavonteesed · 14/05/2010 19:02

I sprayed hearts on a grey ponies bum when I was a kid and went in fancy dress as my little pony. was cool, although your dd's pony does look a bit like it has been skinned.

onebatmother · 14/05/2010 19:04

Christ yes it will look VAIR BAD.
Then again so will saying 'that's not blood on your dd's inner thigh it's cochineal. I dyed the pony'

onebatmother · 14/05/2010 19:05

skinned! lol
Abused, Degraded and Skinned. Can YOU help?

Now you know what it looks like you can do it again at haloween

chesgirlNOTgriffins · 14/05/2010 19:29

A pony!
Its pink!

Add a big tub of icecream and a pair of Jimmy choos and its chegirl heaven!

I used to dye my dog. He was called giro and was a collie cross. When I dyed my hair pink I would do a bit of his chest. He looked lovely and we matched

DavidHameron · 14/05/2010 19:36

You and your dog used to have matching pink hair? Did you make him wear dangly earrings made out of Patagonian worry beads too? And a pair of Fairtrade loon pants?

onebatmother · 14/05/2010 19:43

and PATCHOULI?

chesgirlNOTgriffins · 14/05/2010 19:52

How dare you! He did have several bandanas in various colours from Camden Market.

It was the 80s FFS

elastamum · 14/05/2010 20:27

OMG! I wish I had the sort of mum who did that. I have a huge grey horse if you want to come round and give it another go!

Quattrocento · 14/05/2010 21:04

This truly belongs in MN classics

MI, you are sick.

Can you do a noseband with white flowers? Along with the multicoloured hair extensions and glittery hoof oil? And plait flowers into his mane and tail? Ooh and what about a nice pink saddlecloth?

expatinscotland · 14/05/2010 21:07

Why is this thread not in threads of the day on the homepage?

It's classic.

onebatmother · 14/05/2010 21:19

I've just done our guinea-pig's highlights for her. Next, a brazilian for the cat.

MitchyInge · 14/05/2010 21:37

That was the best party ever! I forgot to do food, cake etc but don't think anyone minded, just need to put the 80000000 pics of finished ponies on computer now. Am in state of Advanced Excitement

You are utterly mad MitchyInge, but your enthusiasm is infectious.

MitchyInge · 14/05/2010 21:49

My HANDS though! Will they ever stop being so pink?

OP posts:
DavidHameron · 14/05/2010 21:56

My DH loved your pink pony so much he tweeted it...

TotalChaos · 14/05/2010 21:57
