The one your daughter is referreing to is the size of a miniature pony and you can sit on it. It costs £400(!!) and 'loves you for real' according to the 4 year old.<BR/><BR/>Tara - We have similar dolls - all with defects. We have Marge, she has independent eyes and half her leg missing. She was always their favourite.<BR/><BR/>Robert - In the 4 years the 13 year old has been riding I have only ever seen one boy wearing jodphurs.Laura - Are We Nearly There Yet Mummy?https://www.blogger.com/profile/02827420866489863620noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7845629192350541476.post-85690190588325971362009-01-10T23:47:00.000+00:002009-01-10T23:47:00.000+00:00Your post reminded me of an episode with my daught...Your post reminded me of an episode with my daughter some years ago.<BR/><BR/>When she was about 10, she began to pester me for riding lessons. Why? I asked her. Is it because your friends are having lessons? Or is it just a girl thing?<BR/><BR/>It was the last question that got her mad. Riding is NOT a girl thing!! LOTS of boys have riding lessons!!<BR/><BR/>So I agreed to check out the local riding schools with my daughter. I used speakerphone so that she could hear what was going on. On the first call, I asked the lady from that riding school if she had vacancies for a novice rider and how much did it cost. "How old is your DAUGHTER?" was the immediate reply...<BR/><BR/>I had a rather embarrassed daughter!Roberthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08210753167984462321noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7845629192350541476.post-18645855694660767472009-01-10T23:44:00.000+00:002009-01-10T23:44:00.000+00:00My daughter is like that with dolls.

She loves them for about an hour, then they all end up in a pile in the corner of her room and she cuddles up to her True Love, a grotty doll whose one eye doesn't shut properly and GIVES ME THE CREEPS!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7845629192350541476.post-15081810319555421702009-01-10T21:37:00.000+00:002009-01-10T21:37:00.000+00:00I think you just solved a mystery for me.
