4:56 - when the man trotted by with the doggies and the following horse-riders, that's honestly one of the most English things I've ever seen, it felt like out of a Jane Austen novel!

[@Fifig75]

Thank you for these vlogs Josie. In this time of madness it is my relaxing time. ❤. Love them. I always find that when I'm all done up I meet no one. When i look like someone dragged me through a hedge backwards I meet everyone 😆

[@christinepickard7804]

Absolutely wonderful, pure escapeism.The lights are dazzling. Thank you, Josie & Charlie 🎉 for a top-class Vlogmas. ❤

[@daniellengarcia]

One of my favorite things to see & experience is the universal countryside wave. I adore how people great each other as they pass, whether it’s to say thank you or hello, it just feels so quaint & lovely 🤍🌿🪻

The Lights, Sounds, Landscapes, Food & Families, truly a magical night! Thank you for taking us along! ❤🌲

Coming from hot and humid Queensland to see those dogs and horses going past just made me smile. I would give anything to live in a country with seasons...just magical.

@@anastasiastasinou5959 Thirty odd riders & a pack of two dozen hounds are not out for a walk. They are hoping to catch a fox & watch with absolute glee as the hounds rip it to shreds. That’s what turns them on & it’s a status symbol amognst the idle rich & the sick in the head alike.

So fun!!! That’s the fun of Vlogmas…. Joining you on wherever you’re doing! Little Wolfie is so charming!! A happy fun outing!!❤🌲

[@Lynnrazz]

Thanks so much for the shot of the hunting party !! I grew up with horses and miss it so much! I have to say, I give mad respect to those riders - hacking cross country in the mud takes courage!! Love it!

🦊 hunting is disgusting

[@catrinasteel2716]

⁠@@Tip_Tophello, where is your proof that these riders were hunting an actual fox? There’s isn’t much proof is there, you’re just assuming. Focus your energy on other pressing matters regarding animal welfare in this country ☺️

[@Tip_Top]

@@catrinasteel2716 it's well known that this takes place in the Cotswolds. One of the hunt clubs buried a fox alive this year.

[@catrinasteel2716]

⁠@@Tip_Topand luckily the correct authorities are looking into situations like that, but please don’t tar every single person with the same brush. It’s wonderful to see horse and dogs out exercising in such a beautiful setting, in this video there is no proof of any wrong doing, just polite people with their animals ☺️

[@meganfookes2026]

Looked very magical. Thank you for sharing this gorgeous experience with us 🙏🎄

[@brendaraynor2279]

Josie, the intro to your vlogs is absolutely breath taking! I wait for the scene of the sheep on the countryside to appear each time you begin the vlog. I have also started the vlog over just so I can see that part. Is there anyway you can show us the entire clip of what was filmed? That would be an epic one for sure... maybe on Christmas Day just so we can say we connected with you and Charlie.
