    It would be adorable to see a styling session with you and Charlie together!!! We don't have hedgehogs in America, but we do have porcupines, which are kind of similar in appearance, but not nearly as cute, and their barbed quills will stick in a dog's nose if they get too close, and have to be yanked out with pliers.

    Yes, we have many, many hedgehogs in America, at least here in New York’s Hudson Valley. They have created a “condominium complex” in my back field with multiple entrances. We don’t know if they have installed air conditioning, but we’re fairly certain that they have an indoor pool, underground of course. They live quite well here. New babies every spring…and a joy to share our land with them. Lots of laughs making up stories about their lives, especially since they no longer eat my perennial garden plants.

    24:20 Other medieval traditions you could try? I just took a course in *medieval plant dyeing* ! Dyeing fabric or yarn using plants. There are so many different plants you could use! Birch for example - the leaves gives a yellow colour, while the wood gives a browny colour. Plant dyeing had a comeback in the 70s, and it's becoming more popular again now. The basic principle is you boil the fabric together with the plant. Different plants results in different colours! How cool would it be to have a few decorative pillows that you dyed in your very own kitchen, using plants from your own garden or the local area?

    Well, I really enjoyed this Vlog. So the herb drying process is interesting in the upper part of your older home- great beams! I have dried herbs in a covered shed outside - too much moisture, takes awhile. I love the flower bouquet you took to your hosts - pastel beauties. Dickens is the cutest, fluffiest speckled assistant in this Vlog. I loved when Charlie swung him over his shoulder like a sack of potatoes!! His therapy dog! Adorable.🥰 Both of you should be proud of the abseiling accomplishment on the church tower , without one lesson! Beautiful old church inside and the bell and clock “rooms” are magnificent. There’s nothing like historical architecture. The Sunday roast dinner was lovely & looked delicious! No one should leave hungry from that restaurant!
    I believe I would fall asleep on the way home with all that lovely dinner.
    BTW we do not have the cute hedgehog in America. We have a groundhog, which is a greens eating large roly- poly rodent in towns , woods, etc. and then a prairie dog, which burrows and lives out west on prairie or plains , squirrel- like and they “ bark”.
    The Holland Cooper items are classy, traditional, very nice. I did not know of this brand until watching your channel. Sort of reminds me of a horse ware brand with a little Ralph Lauren mixed in.
    Take care Josie & Charlie- stay safe & warm.😊

    There are hedgehogs in the US, but they are not native to the US and I believe they’re more prevalent in certain regions. One of my favorite essays from John Green’s Anthropocene Reviewed is about the hedgehog that moved into his garden. After trying many methods of keeping her out of his vegetable garden he created a little plot to make a garden just for her. He would sow a few leftover seeds of whatever he was planting in his own beds in her garden area and she was happy enough with her own little plot that she didn’t bother his beds anymore ❤️
