Esme's Country Life

A quick break from work with my boyfriend in Italy, where I almost get arrested at airport security and accidentally put strangers at risk of hypothermia. On the yard Joey is really not happy...

this week, I travel to Holland to see a World Champion Equestrian, I talk about gym culture and how I don't know what I'm supposed to do, lots of other updates too!

In this weeks ramble... I've been doing scary spooky things this last week, as well as my first literature festival and live show, on stage, in a theatre - with real people !

Scary things happening with horses ( do not worry no horses were harmed in the making of this podcast, but some donkeys did make a bid for freedom )

Lots in this weeks pod! Quick look forward to Halloween, a review of Horse of the Year Show, more embarrassing encounters in the real world and Joey throws some excited shapes at being back show jumping.

in this weeks episode, I catch up on the last fortnight of beach photoshoots, hacks with the bucking monster aka Casper, who is my celebrity twin, TikTok live and how many times a day does a horse poo?

So I asked you for questions, about anything, you asked and I answered!

A busy week! One day I'm at a local fete watching a border collies herding runner ducks, the next I'm rubbing shoulders with A-listers at London Fashion Week, with a good dose of doggy swimming in-between...

Ok so I went on holiday, it has been a while, and I needed a break - so me and the BF went away, what could possibly go wrong - well you know me, time to embarrass myself again...

Another new episode where I go to London to the BBC, my Chickens become assassins, a day at Burghley and I get trapped in a dress that doesn't belong to me - normal week really...

Remember kids, I heart skid marks - if you know, you know....

Oh dear, I've embarrassed myself again with a new friend, in today's episode Casper poo's at the worst possible moment, I get interviewed on RTE1, I go to the Dublin Horse Show and the Longines Global Champions tour....I need a rest!

Behind the scenes of a photoshoot, cottage updates, poshest weekender ever....and Joey has a tantrum - which was entirely my fault!

One of the horses needs the vet...... British Summer update......Mickey lives out his Barbie dreams......

It turns out Max has wanted to be on the podcast for a while, so as a big sister I decided to interview the man himself!

In this episode I chat about learning to trick ride, falling off with grace as well as an amazing experience at the Riding for the Disabled Association's National Championships!

Is Threads the next big thing? What is it for? Am I doing it right, I have no idea, but it does feel 'nice' at the moment. Also I fall off Casper...again - for goodness sake...

My Wifi doesn't work, for the most 'country' reason ever, and I drive to Germany and back to the World's largest Horse Show in Aachen. Quite the week!

In this weeks episode I talk about my worst fall, my injuries and my loss in confidence

Part 1 of a 2 parter, actually it may become more parts and I never seem to have got the hang of stopping falling off...

Why do these things always happen to me, is it just me, or does this just happen to everyone?

You asked! So I answered....Today I talk phobias, icecream, climbing and the horror of tea rooms in summer - your usual random ramble...

Living in the country, not being able to get a takeaway, and it being an absolute mission to go shopping - love it or hate it?

I visit Royal Windsor, but only just make it there, before trying my hand at surfing - which mainly involved wiping out and eating sand, still..great fun

In today's episode sponsored by Redpost Equestrian, I talk about a new friend for Joey, the muddiest horse show ever and what its really like to do social media at horse shows...
