🐴 IF OUR CHILDHOOD PONIES HAD NUMBER PLATES, HOW MANY OF US WOULD HAVE ENDED UP WITH POINTS ON OUR LICENCE? 😂
There was a time when being 11 years old, having a pony and a few equally questionable friends was apparently all the supervision you needed.
We’d disappear for hours…..
Hacking miles from the yard, riding one and leading two, jumping anything that vaguely resembled a fence, racing across fields and occasionally getting completely lost.
Swimming in lakes, picking pears and apples from trees for lunch,standing on the saddle to reach
No mobile phones📵 No GPS. No tracking apps.
Our parents had absolutely no idea where we were, and quite frankly, neither did we half the time. 😂
We’d return at some point, usually starving, filthy and with a story that definitely didn’t include everything we’d been up to.
And somehow, we’d be straight back out again the next morning.🌅
Different times. Different freedoms. And some absolutely legendary ponies who deserve medals for putting up with us. 🥇
What was the most outrageous thing YOU got up to with your pony as a child? 👀 🤔
We’re expecting some stories that would give today’s riding instructors a nervous breakdown. 😂
