Animals-Horses-Shetland Ponies. This Deserves A Horse Laugh
Animals-Horses-Shetland Ponies. This Deserves A Horse Laugh. Shopping without petrol is no problem for Miss Grizel Ballantyne, of Sevenoaks, Kent. Twinkle, a six-year-old Shetland pony, is small enough to accompany her into the shops and makes light of the weight of two small baskets of provisions slung pannier fashion on the either side of her. Tou-Tou a be-ribboned French Poodle, leads the way as Twinkle leaves on shop and heads for another, remembering modestly that horses twice her age (though larger) have carried fifteen times her weight and won the Grand National. February 1948

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this delightful print titled "Animals-Horses-Shetland Ponies. This Deserves A Horse Laugh" we are transported back to February 1948, where Miss Grizel Ballantyne of Sevenoaks, Kent showcases her ingenious shopping companion. Meet Twinkle, a six-year-old Shetland pony who effortlessly accompanies Miss Ballantyne into the shops without the need for petrol-powered transportation. Twinkle's petite size allows her to navigate the aisles with ease, as she proudly carries two small baskets of provisions slung pannier fashion on either side of her. Leading the way is Tou-Tou, an elegant French Poodle adorned with ribbons and exuding style and grace. As Twinkle gracefully moves from one shop to another in search of necessities, it is worth noting that despite her diminutive stature, she bears a weight that would make horses twice her age blush. With a touch of humor and irony, this charming image reminds us that even though larger horses have carried far heavier loads in prestigious races like the Grand National, Twinkle's contribution to everyday life should not be underestimated. This snapshot captures a moment when unconventional means of transport were embraced with creativity and practicality. It serves as a testament to human ingenuity and our ability to find joy in unexpected places – or perhaps more accurately – unexpected ponies!
