Mega want ! my favourite Brush n Grow

I was thinking about this lately. I was drawn to the white bodied ponies a lot during childhood too- G1 Gusty, Starshine, G3 Starcatcher and Bowtie to name a few favourites.

But now I'm drawn to the super bright coloured ponies ! Any tropical, neon or celestial themes across generations. Also Blue or green bodies. Just received G3 Tropical Surprise in the post, and her colours are stunning

I experienced a pretty bad flood! It was Storm Desmond in the UK in December 2015.
I was at University at the time living in a house share in Carlisle. I was walking back from class when the storm started, the rain was flooding the streets before our eyes.
After a night of non stop rain and wind shaking the house, I looked out of the window and the whole street and ground floor was submerged. (I was on 3rd floor, thank goodness.) The river's banks had collapsed, cars floating, dead rats, Christmas decorations everywhere It was really upsetting and still haunts me to be honest.

I had to grab some clothes in a bag and be rescued via a canoe!

The whole experience was very humbling, I thought of when natural disasters have happened around the world and how grateful I was that we had aid etc. Also that it was just a rented temporary home and I could just go home to my family, whereas my neighbours had lost everything.

Now every winter I always make sure we have flooding prep just in case. It worries me that with climate change, this will happen more often.

They are so hilariously weird  How come we are still seeing G4 things everywhere alongside G5? I've noticed it with the MLP magazine having artwork and stories about both characters..? 

Ooh go on then! Please may I enter with the song Walking in the Air by Aled Jones.

Oh my goodness the colours are stunning !! Minty having the green stripe in there too is so fitting for her, I wish they designed her like that!
And the caramel brown for Autumn Crisp is perfect !! Really good work   

My partner has always considered the Ponies another fun interest of mine!
He is a collector himself, mostly Warhammer 40k figures. He was joking about how expensive they were and that "I don't want to know how much he's spending" I reassured him I understand completely, showing some of the rarest in my collection! 
I love how we are both equally passionate about our fun little hobbies !
