Hello everybody and welcome back to my podcast, Esme's Country Life. Today's episode is a bonus episode

that I'm posting every Wednesday at the roll up to Christmas, which I haven't really decided

the name yet, so I'm going to call it for now my mini pod series. So instead of talking about,

you know, my normal day-to-day week of what I've been up to with the animals, often very embarrassing

stories, do not worry,

because this week is also going to be a very embarrassing one, because I'm going to be talking about my top five falls, or the top five times I have fallen off a horse. Now, thinking about

it, I lost count of falling off horses many, many moons ago.

Probably was around 2011, I think, my first ever pony club camp with my Pony Mickey.

I remember I lost a count about then, that was at about 30, so I'll just, I'll let you guess how many times I've fallen off.

But anyway, before we begin, I just want to say a huge thank you to the sponsor of the podcast,

Red Post.

Red Post is an equestrian and country store based in the UK, and they also ship all over the world.

And when this podcast episode goes out, Red Post have a huge Black Friday sale coming soon. And and actually they already have some discounts sprinkled about at the moment. And one of them is, which is very fitting for today's podcast episode, is they have up to 15% of selected lines of helmets and we all know when you fall off. It is so, so important, especially if you hit your head to replace your helmet, because

once this has been impacted, it won't be able to do the same job that it did the first time around.

Also, maybe your helmet is really, really old. They do have a lifetime date, so please update

your helmets and stay safe out there, guys. And thank you to Red Post for sponsoring the podcast.

get asked like, oh, what's your worst fall and that kind of thing in Q&As? But I feel like I have

lots of different ones for different reasons of why they have made the top five. So welcome to my top five falls. Also,

if you have any ideas of what else you would like to hear in my minipod series, please let me know

in the comments below. Maybe it could be my top five rides, my top five something else, or just
