Meet Carmen. Carmen burrs at things. No one has ever heard a cat make this noise at things, especially when she has different burrs. There’s the “Hello” burr that she’ll greet you with each day. There’s the greeting burr when going into the hall and she comes sprinting down the stairs. There’s the annoyed burr […]
Pony Mail Day
It always gives me a little boost on getting Pony mail. As my friend says, it’s like being a child again and coming upon a large lot or a pony I didn’t have at the markets. I got her today despite not expecting her to arrive yet. Now I’m waiting on my second grail, Pearlized […]
A Bit More About Me
While this is intended to mainly be a pony blog, partner reckons I should add a bit more about myself and what I do, thereby turning it into a life blog too. So here we go. First thing to know is, that I study. I’m currently doing a Games Development course at college with the […]
Pony Winter Wonderland
There’s times it surprises me just how much ponies are worth. I’ve seen Merry Treats at £40 and Ice Crystal for £200. I’m pretty sure Ice Crystal was one of the last ponies I bought in my teenage years while Merry Treats I got for Xmas. They look like a nice couple, I had a […]
Hair Dye
When I was sixteen, I wanted my nose pierced and my hair dyed purple. I’d picked out a lovely shade of violet and I was all for it. Till my mum reminded me about allergies and I had the mental image of my head swelling up like a balloon. Many years later, I was out […]
Photography
I took up photography about ten years ago now. My dad used to take me out places, scenic areas, lochs and that sort of idea. I mainly liked landscape photography as it at least stayed still and I could spend my time getting it from different angles. It’s not as if a tree is on […]
The Holy Grail
Everyone has their grails. From Mimic to Nightglider to the Twice as Fancy baby ponies. Nightglider was released as part of the second Twice as Fancy ponies, though I’m missing Love Melody from the first seties and an upgrade of Dancing Butterflies. I’ve had the latter pony since I was in single digits and this […]
In the Wild
I usually never have much luck with ‘in the wild’ finds, happening across either G1 or G3 in charity shops or markets. My parents have more luck, coming back with huge lots of thirty odd ponies at a time. Me, I was happy to find Galaxy the Twinkle Eyed Pony and two G3 today, Bowtie […]
First Post – Welcome to the Pony Madness
As the blog title says, this blog is all about the ponies. My Little Pony from the 80s (G1) up until the early 2000s (G3). I didn’t and haven’t followed Friendship is Magic, though I do own a few of the Build-a-Bear cuddly ones including Celestia and Luna. Though I admit, Big Macintosh is winking […]
About this Blog
Why am I here, it asks. Why? Because I’m a collector of My Little Pony and have recently got back into it. This blog is a place to post my Holy Grail list of ponies, recent additions to my collection and various stories of my ponies and the personalities I gave them.
