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.

Bless him, it detracted from the fact he only had 3 legs.

Will you do my hair for my party? Please?

Do you have any of that dye left?

MitchyInge · 14/05/2010 23:02

I warn you, it fades quickly see?

That would be just perfect just dont't put my mane on the wrong side

seeker · 14/05/2010 23:13

Have to say I think pink would suit my dd's pony more than it suits that lovely skewbald!

I am crying here !! My ds has party at a castle tomorrow and I am not xcited at all now! This looks like the best party ever - fab fab fab

pamplemousse · 14/05/2010 23:25

What a lovely horse! It looks very odd pink!! Hope your daughter liked it

MitchyInge · 15/05/2010 01:25

awwww iamamug, a castle tops everything and anything - will there be jousting? would LOVE to have a go at that

(wish I could put closer pics of the other ponies up but they have other people's children on them or near them, not sure that is really ok without permission)

(also wish was not so long until next year, or can I find some other excuse to do it all again?)

In all those photos you can see the horse looking down at his front legs and thinking "WTF?"

crabb · 15/05/2010 06:42

You are one fab Mum!

sockmonkey · 15/05/2010 08:29

oh my goodness, I am laughing so hard.
Mitchy you are some kind of evil genius...
That poor pony.

thinker · 15/05/2010 08:42

I think you are a bloody maginficent woman ! Its the sort of thing that will go down in family history and what good childhood memories are all about xx Am on the verge of buying daughter pony and you have just tipped me over the edge here xx

Dollytwat · 15/05/2010 08:43

So this isn't the first time you've dyed your pony?

ROFL

Undertone · 15/05/2010 09:03

Brilliant, frankly. I wanna dye my pony now!!

pedrothellama · 15/05/2010 12:02

For some odd reason I am still humming the theme music from the Pink Panther.

Dum de dum, de dum de dum de dum de dum de duuuuuummm, da da da da.............

[Looks confused and stares out of window]

Amapoleon · 15/05/2010 12:18

Hahaha, you nutter

pedrothellama · 15/05/2010 13:09

Anyway I have to go to hospital to get my lacerations stiched up.

Cat took HUGE exception to being dyed pink

Mouseface · 15/05/2010 14:00

Cripes, you did mean a real pony!!

Fab picture!!!

It reminds me of the scene in The Wizard Of Oz, when they get to Emerald City and get all spruched up and the horse pulling the carriage keeps changing colour.........red, yellow, blue....

You are as mad as cheese though.....

pixiestix · 15/05/2010 14:16

Mitchy, you are a legend!

geraldinetheluckygoat · 15/05/2010 14:22

omfg, thought for sure this would be a joke!! My favorite thing about the whole story is that you were so busy dyeing the pony that YOU FORGOT TO DO THE FOOD AND CAKE!!LOL LOL LOL!!!!

So funny, youre a ledgend, despite having a pony with mane on wrong side (how embasrassing!)

nighbynight · 15/05/2010 14:31

Must admit, I thought you were Jordan at the start of this thread, but her dd's younger.

Bet they never forget the pink pony party though.

Mumsnut · 15/05/2010 14:33

I can die happy now.

We used to dye ponies for fancy dress at the stables i rode at as a child (mainly for fancy dress at shows), i have seen pink and blue ponies .
