Totes Overwhelmed!

Charlie Beechey
This is our friend Charlie Beechey (above) who resides in the romantic sounding Milton Keynes, and who, out of the blue, sent us the most BRILLIANT present each.
Union Jack tissue paper.
Opening Charlie’s parcel revealed two little packages wrapped in Union Jack tissue paper, which is not only soooooo de rigueur at the moment, but, as we love the Queen so much, it is naturally our gift wrap of choice!

Inside each parcel was the loveliest monkey button

We were both totes totes overwhelmed and robustly overcome at such a wonderful present of an out of the blue type nature.

It didn’t take Darrell five minutes to find a pin so that he could wear his button as a badge, which he then kept on stroking.

With the buttons was the tiniest weeniest envelope with an equally tiny weenie letter from Charlie telling us about the badges, which his mum makes, he must be very proud.

xxx Thank you Charlie (and Mum) we LOVE them xxx, and we will be totes wearing them all the time.

They look great.
I went to the website and the prices came up in Mexican pesos. I am using Mrs. D's "laptop chiquita" which was bought in Mexico.
Please explain "totes" as this says umbrellas and bags to me.
