Berwyn at Mitre 10 had invited the intrepid gals, as she had heard all about our Queen...Baroness Bligh's escapades. Being both a Pink Hatter and a 'working girl' (in the conventional sense), Berwyn felt left out not being able to attend events, so suggested Lynn bring the gals to her.
What a wonderful surprise she had in store. We were all presented with a beautiful potted plant...coloured pink and purple of course...wrapped in red paper and topped off with ribbon and bow. She then announced that all Red Hatters would get 15% off anything they cared to purchase from the shop.
After perusing the Mitre 10 array of goodies, the gals had a wander around town before descending on "The World of Taste Deli and Cafe" for a lovely lunch. Our clever keeper of the Purse...Wendy Scott had placed a red ribbon under one of the chairs befor the gals got there. Yours truly was delighted to find it under her chair and was presented with a sumptuous purple boa feather. What a thrill!
Thanks Lady Graceland and thank you also for sharing your glamorous leg with us...even if your dear husband did think it looked like a crayfish!
The Potaes were happy to meet 3 new 'virgin' Red Hatters on their first outing. Marie Phillips, Gwen Bracks and Leslie Edwards were welcomed with open arms into the flock. I am sure they will prove to be great assets to our adventurous little group of beach bunnies.
Once again...a wonderful outing with fun people and we thank all those who contributed.
