I got this book as a present a few days ago - had me howling - here are some of the best ones (I think because they are so true!):
She hangs her jods in the wardrobe in colour order - she has stretchy ones for 'fat' days and tighter ones for 'slim' days
If she does venture home, there is usually a trail of straw or shavings behind her so that she can find her way back to the yard
MUD! the horse addicts car will be plastered with it inside and out and so will yours if you let her get in it!
She never has any money. She may start the month with some but by the time she has paid for livery, horse feed, bedding, farrier, back man and other tharapies, repayments for the 4x4 and yet another new saddle cloth, there wont be any left.
Becoming jealous and grumpy because your addict seens to spend more time with the horse is pointless and will only result in her moving in with them. get involved - poo picking is a really theraputic way of unwinding after a hard day at the office.
In the absence of a real pony, the pony mad child will prance around as it she is on one. She will trot instead of run, canter instead of skip and frequently put the occasional neigh, snort or head shaking. dont be alarmed, this is normal behaviour and will usually grow out of it around 50ish.
That last one is so true - I just cantered over to the fax machine ...
