Train and Tequila Tat
Lynne very kindly fixed the brightness on my train pic from Guildford so you can really enjoy the train building I stayed in. Thank you, Lynne!!
Friday was an interesting day as my friend Mrs H-B had her last day at work and I was very sad. A bunch of us went for a Mexican after work and I thought I’d try a margarita as I’d never had one before. Bear in mind two things: 1. I don’t drink vast amounts or that often and 2. I hadn’t eaten a lot so the tequila hit my system very quickly. I’ve been told I got very giggly indeed but I don’t remember much 
After we ate dinner with Mrs H-B, I went on to a Tat for Tat party. I came up with the idea at Christmas when I got a load of gifts from an auntie which really weren’t me at all so I decided to have an unwanted gifts swap party which pao swiftly named ‘Tat for Tat’. It was a great success and I got the amazing knitting box at that party. Consequently, Emma decided to have a Tat for Tat II party which I went to on Friday. I was still feeling the effects of the tequila and was feeling very wibbly wobbly still when I arrived at Emma’s.
As Vicki pointed out when she came round on Saturday afternoon, I’d asked for some tat which she would have never imagined being my taste. Shiny bag? I remember thinking how lovely the lining was. Red bag – dunno! Zippy bag – zips tada! Vicki and I did gain lots of nice purple towels which smell strongly of essential oils and I did get a portable CD player which I’ve been wanting for a while plus some other random stuff.
So in the spirit of Tat for Tat – does anyone want the shiny bag or red bag? Sorry, even though I was tequila-fueled, I still like the zip bag a bit as it would make a good sock bag and it’s got zips. Leave me a comment and I will send either the shiny or red bag to you. If there is more than one taker for each then I will get the random number generator out. I’ll give you until Friday 1st May to get your comments in and spread the word

LOL! Tequila’s very, very dangerous stuff!

Do you have a zip fetish my dear? Anything else that you would like to share?

A giggly Mrs. Pao would have been a very fun thing to witness – especially if tequila was the cause!!

So funny,
We call them White Elephant swaps.

I’ll have to remember you like margaritas for the next time you visit.

Margaritas make me giggly, too.

Love the swap idea!

LOL – I am having difficulty imagining you tiddled
I’ll pass on the bags, thanks – have too many I don’t use already.

Oh, Tequila. My stomach is turning…I can’t handle Tequila. I had one bad experience with Tequila and it was enough for me.

I used to loooove margaritas.
I saw your title and thought it might have meant you swigged some tequila and picked up a nice tattoo. Alas, no. Purses.

Never tried a margarita – but it would probably put me on the floor
I had a similar experience with gin and cranberry juice years ago – giggling and had to be walked to the car by a girlfriend (there were lots of zigzags involved). She swore she didn’t tell me to order that drink! Some great places you’ve been visiting lately. We have a ‘Dyersburg wool festival’ near us I haven’t gotten to yet. Must be colorful

I can confirm the gigglieness of mrspao was all margarita – really made me smile! Twas a lovely evening although tinged with regret that MrsHB is off to pastures new
