[@lesley4429]

Josie please don’t change your vlogs to short ones, I personally love the 1 hour vlogs as it is consistent and flows well, compared to start, stop vlogs. Long time follower.👍

You guys are so adorable, listening to Charlie talk about the cottage and everything he wants to share with guests and a competition winner is so heartwarming to me. It is so clear you love to spoil people with generosity at every opportunity you get. Big love to you both x

[@angelamonson]

The key words are Charlie talks, and talks....

I absolutely love your channel. You are kind and warm and down to earth and so relatable. I love your gardening, home, as well as fashion and travel content. Please don’t change a thing. You inspire me so much! I’d absolutely love to stay at your cottage and experience your kind hearted hospitality. Good customer service is almost extinct these days. Thank you for keeping a piece of it alive and keep up the good work! 🤍

[@helenjames8888]

I totally agree.I started watching Josie a few months ago and I’m totally hooked 😊

[@sandyhossman7771]

I agree, I love everything about Josie 's blogs especially when Charlie is involved.

[@BC1.2.3]

Charlie, you are a treasure ! We enjoy listening to you talk and walk us through things. You're very thoughtful and kind. Thank you and Josie for sharing!❤

[@Monica-bf7kx]

WAIT!!! My heart just melts when Dexter and Dicken's are onscreen with their adorable antics and take up your screen time........well worth the watch, Josie - in addition to all your insightful new beauty product purchases, home goods, cooking recipes, gardening, shopping and fitness inspiration. Love watching from Down Under (Australia!!!) Keep shining your beautiful light!!!

[@amysmith-turk3750]

Love your M&S shop. Thanks for bringing in more affordable options 💛

[@celiadea4882]

Love your blogs, they feel more geniune and warm than many others.

[@paulaacuna8030]

I’m from Spain (northwest, Galicia) and been watching your blogs since you moved to the Cotswolds. I love your content, learning about the English countryside living. And your love for your dogs. Thank you for sharing so many different content and being so kind to all the people who follows you. Sois una pareja encantadora, 😊

[@loafollower9590]

I loved the shop in M&S miss the high street shops you used to do

[@MichelleHays-jm6mr]

So generous!! I love your positivity and how happy it makes both of you to share the things you love with your viewers ❤❤

[@IsobelCeline]

I love the newsletter & appreciate all the effort & beautiful things the team puts in. I look forward to reading it every Friday 🫶🏻🌿 I love the planner section you’ve put in as that’s so lovely to see what events are on in the Cotswolds 🌿 excited to see who gets the cottage stay too. It looks absolutely beautiful!🤍✨

[@DGUTUBE]

Weight. Never knew there was a Newsletter! And, gosh how I wish I lived in England!! That stay at the new Strawtop Cottage is AMAZING! What a luck winner that will be. So - very - generous of you guys. Very nice. Can't wait to see what the new BRAND will be. I think that is such a good idea for you guys. Best of luck with everything going on with you!

[@brionnajimerson854]

Aaah you uploaded 23 seconds ago and I'm first! I adore your content, Josie! Cheers from my rainy balcony garden in Brooklyn, NY. Making chicken soup from scratch as we speak.

[@JosieIrons]

Yummy!!!

[@joannpatrick8283]

Josie, you will always be my #1 vlogger because you really listen to what your audience wants, and then accommodate 🥰

[@ez608]

Anyone nuts like me, already looking forward to Vlogmas?!?😂

[@debbiestott3651]

What a lovely wholesome vlog Josie. Loving all the aspects of your video’s and can’t wait to see the new cottage content. X

[@camillehoward6760]

Can’t wait to see more exciting content! Excited for you and Charlie and Straw Top 2 being ready. Congrats!

[@HannahBarta]

Josie! I would love it if you did a “day in the life of an influencer” series - one a month or a season - those are my favorite videos of yours! I just love seeing what life is really like for influencers beyond all the wonderful things you show us.

[@francescawollaston2227]

Haha 😃 dear Josie I hope you enjoy copious amounts of hot water from now on! You are absolutely right - it does us the world of good to live without certain things as we really appreciate the simple things in life more 🙏💐

[@strawberrycupcake4471]

Not feeling great, snuggled in bed, watching this vlog...just so relaxing and beautiful. Thx

[@MissDaisylicious7]

Wait a second! I just quite my job and I’m so grateful to absorb the passion and professionalism which you put in your job! It’s more than entertainment for me. That is something that I would love to see in your newsletters (like your Q&A from this week). We are all searching souls here, and meanwhile I’m gonna find my passion again 😇 and spread the word hopefully afterwards! Good luck 🍀

[@alisonhaverty897]

Another great cosy Cotswolds home vlog, Can't "Wait" for the next one Josie!!!🍁🍁

[@trudiegordon6327]

I love soups and to get extra goodness add pulses and beans etc and pumpkins everywhere so great. Home made the way to go so love hearing the ideas - I have a lot of parsley and home grown herbs and will do even more next year. They are so much fun. Bay leaf gives flavour too.

[@gloriaeren8717]

I do enjoy when you go to the markets locally they’re so beautiful when you host and Charley cooks and love your Christmas Vlogs a trip would be amazing because I live so far away, but I think bringing my dog would be out of the question. I don’t know how quiet he would stay under the seat of an airplane.

[@please-wake-up-now]

This looks like the perfect way to spend a rainy day! 🌧️ Homemade soup and cookies? Sign me up! I love how cozy everything feels, especially with those autumn vibes. 🍂 Can't wait to try making the soup, it looks yum! Also, your vlogs always inspire me to slow down and enjoy the little things. Keep it up, Josie! 🍪✨

[@eviemayvlog342]

From the newsletter I’d love a mix of recipes/ gardening/ foraging/ home styling/ workout tips/ recipes basically everything you guys already do!

[@susanmiller5035]

Meet Dexie and Dickie??!!! Renewing my passport now!

[@msskcih]

Would love to see more of Charlie and interiors and stuff he recommends. Love the OCD element of attention to detail for interiors. Where to pick up stuff. Sofas. Rugs. Lights. Bla bla bla. Interiors interiors ha ha

[@CareyClawson]

I can't 'wait' to watch your vlogs when they pop up!🥰 Love seeing and hearing from Charlie too - he should make more appearances! The way you both are so loving with your puppies is surely an indication of what wonderful parents you'll be one day, Lord willing.🙏 Blessings to you both.💚

[@AndreaTerdott]

What a lovely vlog ! Can’t wait for rain to come our way to CA ! Cozy season is much needed 😊

[@BClanBeauty]

What I normally do when my nails break at that point, is use nail glue. So I bend the nail a bit and put the nail glue to the break and then press the nail back in place and hold it until the glue sets. I buff off the excess glue once dry because it will be rough. If it’s a clean break, not much can be done…

[@kamalanesibova9907]

Hi Josie l missing for your Christmas vlogs you are so cute my darling❤🥰

[@wabitop]

I highly recommend Ashwaganda. It’s made a noticeable change in my anxiety levels.

[@lorrainewells3844]

Soup looks yummy. Cookies are so scrumptious. Your nails are looking beautiful. Thank you for the Marks & Spencer tips which I definitely will be getting. Great workout at the end and so worth the WAIT. Thank you for sharing ❤

[@kateforsyth1133]

I think a puppy column on your newsletter would be amazing. Lots we could learn from Dexter and Dickey’s! How to properly snuffle, fluff a throw pillow for napping, chasing squirrel 🐿️….

[@susanojohnson6445]

Wait-ing for me has been a learned personality trait... I'm happy to say I've come to know patience is a virtue 😊

[@lacbenmar]

I really love your channel , and can’t wait for your little family to grow. Xxxx

[@claudiaribeiro6571]

Absolutely adore your channel! Your vlogs give me the most amazing cozy vibes, and you always exude such great energy and spirit. Keep up the amazing work, Josie! Lots of love from Portugal ❤❤

[@k1bylandp2bysea37]

My goodness how did I miss signing up for your newsletters!!! Can’t wait to start receiving!! And oh for the chance at being able to stay at your cottage- a dream!!! Love your vlogs!!

[@maxinemuhammad5979]

Great vlog loved it I find your vloggs so wholesome and relaxing love watching them keep up the great content it is greatly appreciated ❤️❤️❤️💯💯💯😍😍😍🫶🏿🫶🏿🫶🏿🔥🔥🔥

[@alisonsneed3707]

Since you’re the ‘Come shopping with me’ founder I can’t wait for your next one.

[@trudiegordon6327]

I don't see rain as miserable as the soil needs it and the rivers let alone our gardens and trees etc. Seasons bring different weather and we are lucky to have seasons as a lot of countries don't and it would be monotomous to have the same climate all the time - good old British weather suits me. Skin damage otherwise and there is still a lot of that here hence dermatology clinics. I thought it was lovely to hear the rain on your video.

[@L_aurore]

16:15 oooh a brand shift is coming?!!! That’s so exciting! Can’t wait ❤❤😊

[@nathaliacota1248]

Thank you Josie. I can't "wait" for the next vlog.

[@paulabriggins8242]

Hi Josie, your soup looks amazing, I will try that tomorrow. I love everything you video. I look forward to sitting down with my coffee watching your video's. You and Charlie are such a lovely couple. Love to you both xx ❤❤

[@mhairiallen2304]

I ❤the water filter I would probably get it could fit in my family’s kitchen as I’m a tea addict and as certain teas need brewing at lower temperatures which is hard to do with a kettle or tap

[@TobyAkin]

Thank you for this wonderful blog. Your book suggestions are always on point. And very, very useful, even to a lowly physician like myself.

[@jossieloves123]

Ye gods there has been a lot of rain up your way. We drove up from London last Tuesday and were heading to The Yurt after you raved about it for lunch. Got to a point where we had to turn around as the road was totally flooded and too dangerous to drive through. Couldn’t believe how much water was lying about the entire Cotswolds. We LOVED The Yurt - totally delicious and catered so well for my coeliac self and my coeliac son. Thanks for the mention - as we would never have gone there.

[@gwynethglas-brown9171]

Wait 🤔Thats a very Generous give away to your viewers 😍. Thats lovely to hear straw top 2 is Ready 😊 Yes we had that awful weather on Friday as well in Europe it was Storm Aitro that caused that amount of Rain ,strong gale force winds 😮.

[@trudiegordon6327]

I think I will make some apple, lavender and camomile tea at home. Lavender leaves are lovely and others are readily available so wonderful.

[@karensparrow9108]

Loving your gucci cape Josie. Chic, classy yet ultimately timeless❤ Weight x

[@nataliesmith2458]

Literally been watching your vlogs from 2 years ago this afternoon x

[@JosieIrons]

Ooh throwback!

[@annettestrahan8366]

You had me at cozy rainy weekend! Love, love!❤😊

[@emma_eegii]

So beautiful and elegant even in the rainy day ☔☔☔😍😍😍

[@trudiegordon6327]

The heath and heather teas in Holland & Barrett are lovely and the seaweed crisps and I use the Vit C eye serum.

[@sueburkhalter8045]

Dont change a thing! I love your vlogs!

[@anitagallone2086]

Wait 🎉 Love what you and Charlie share with us, so inspiring.❤

[@JGCO23]

Hello Josie!! I haven't even watched this yet, just wanted to say a quick Hi! It's been a summer heat wave in Colorado, but your videos are making me excited for the fall switch. 🧡 have a great start to the week

[@Jayne-Ann]

Epic show, thank you. I can’t wait until the next one! ❤

[@luckymansions2160]

I like the idea of gift ideas in the newsletter - I'm hopeless!

[@mttherke748]

W O W - what a great giveaway you have going on ❤ We would love to stay in your wonderful cottage 🏡 I just love watching your videos 🙌🏻🙏🏻 You are such a warm, nice and wonderful couple ♥️ I can’t wait for the holiday seasons vlogs 🎄🎅🏻🤶🏻

[@LiminalEnergy]

You’re sooo right about water! Medical grade, electrolyzed reduced water - rich in molecular hydrogen!

[@SarahHoyle-kf7sx]

Love Dixie and Dexi ❤ great vlog x

[@sandyhossman7771]

That is a great give away, I wish I was going to be in the UK during that time.

[@L_aurore]

52:27 recently started pushing my self to lift more “weight” in the gym. I’ve seen the benefits of it. Another great vlog ❤❤

[@andrealandsburg]

Josie and Charlie...such kind and generous hearts. I love when you chat about your plans and goals.The gift to your subscribers is wonderful and the inclusion of other makers, farm shops, restaurants will only enrich the Strawtop and Cotswalds experience! Josie...be mindful of adding electrolytes to your water...it is not necessary or beneficial to otherwise healthy people. We give electrolytes to those with specific medical issues, and we monitor their blood levels to ensure their within a normal range. They can cause harm if you receive too much. The larger issue is ingesting microplastics, which can be found in water but particularly plastic bottles of water. There is a very good documentary on microplastics that was just released this year, and can be found on youtube. I think you and Charlie would both find it valuable. I should add that microplastics are found all through the food chain not just water. ❤ The name of the doc is Plastic People.

[@sarahkennedy1481]

You have a beautiful life and home. Your hubby is blessed to have you. I admire your good cooking and health goals. Very relaxing watch. Are you from a PR/marketing background? X

[@StylingPrincessM]

47:18 "i hope this video wasn't filmed in the wrong format" - it was totally filmed in a different format than the intro 🤣🤣

[@barbp79]

You can see the pride beaming off Charlie when he is talking about the Strawtop Cottages, I wish I were in the UK I would love to stay there. I really enjoyed your vlog Josie. Let' see how much WEIGHT I can lift lol. Sending you hugs from Boston 😇

[@michellek8631]

That is a really generous giveaway . Very nice of you .

[@jennycatley1763]

Wait. Another fab vlog thank you ❤

[@kimhoffman433]

Can't "wait" for more vlogs :)

[@SuzanneTheme]

Love how Dickens faithfully guards the oven while mom makes the cookies 😊 Check with your dermatologist about winter sunscreen😊 They are knowledgeable about what works in your area of the world 😊

[@snoopybluejeans]

I make alkaline water myself. It filters out the bad stuff and also puts in needed minerals. Santevia, it's made locally here in BC. Once you drink this water there's no going back to tap water.

[@AngelaWharton-w7m]

Love how you do affordable prices what a lovely prize to give away a stay at strawtop cottage 2 x

[@wendynicholls6231]

I think in winter you don’t need to block out your vit D with to much skin things

[@retiredinbudapest4579]

Love my Water Drop. That was a weighty session! ❤😊

[@Eirabear380]

My grandma and mom are testaments that spf is a must. They grew up in the Asian tropics and now are in Texas, so sun avoidance is impossible. People are surprised when they learn my grandma and mom are in their 80s/60s respectively. Since you live in the UK, I do think you could get away with less spf during the winter. But my question is: why would you want to have to trial-and-error more products than necessary? If you want some vit d, apply sunscreen before you go out for the day, and spend some time in the early morning outside without it! You only need a few minutes a day outside for the recommended vit d absorption.

[@robinbeisel702]

I always called my Thermomix my "Fancy Soup Pot" 😊 it is so nice to have

[@glogrann8562]

Josie, do you drink tap water from the faucet? Do you prefer coffee or tea?

[@shelleyjessup6594]

How exciting! I’d love to meet your boys x

[@katherinesage]

Josie 🍂 Katie in California Was in Los Olivos yesterday and a Pumpkin Patch w ‘Ginormous’ Pumpkins and thought of your love of gardening! Many of us love the way you show the combos of recipes, fashion, decor, gardening and it’s a winning formula to keep! Personally, I’d like to see more of the house and more ‘Ghost’ stories due to its history this time of year… what are the oldest rooms??

[@karenyilmaz6969]

Weight , lovely mix of all things cosy.

[@SashaFox22]

It's +30 degrees in Utah. Autumn is in no hurry to come here😅

Wait! This was a great vlog🤗

[@VondaSims]

Being from the U.S., my husband and I would love to win a stay at Strawtop Cottage! ❤Such beautiful area, and we missed a real honeymoon as ours was at the start of the pandemic.

[@Reillygirl]

In America we use our Kuerig coffee machines to use the hot water without a coffee pod for tea or hot water.

Just saw your vlog with QA and popped back to subscribe and pop weight into the comment box ... which I feel is ok because I am having a Josie catchup whilst working from home ...
