What's a tack room?

[Rhubarb]

It's not a room full of tacks is it?

Is it?

As long as the thumb-tacks are not on the floor ...

I have lots of tacks - is this where we swap stories about them?

One of my tacks is ever so slightly bent.

Are they pretty colour tacks or plain old brass ones? Ooh or could they be ones with little flags on?

Mine are coloured. Do you have prettier ones? I'll swap you some!

But if mine are prettier why would I swap?

Anyway, you need the Tack Swap Shop for that. I have the full collection, including galvanised wall tacks...

Oooh, I have only the brass and coloured ones, I'm sooo jealous! Do you have pictures?

For our anniversary I've bought dh a boxed tack gift set including a little book all about the history of tacks! He'll be so excited!

Really? Gosh, can you get it on Amazon Rhubarb?

KC - what the feck are you doing on here?

Here's me trying to find a safe haven away from AIBU and look who I bump into

Are you horsey? Obviously not from these posts, mind you.

Tack is slang for saddlery.

Teck rooms are where you shiver clasping mugs of hot tea and eating biccies and waiting for it to stop pissing down so you can go out for a hack.

..and there's usually more muck on the floor than in the boxes

...but tack rooms smell lovely

How is Tack slang for saddlery? They only have one letter in common!

I don't mind horses, but I do like glue better.
