what are 'quirts' and 'tawse'?

Hand spankings are very hard to beat, and they are very intimate. The last time she visited me, I had her go shopping at her local adult store to pick out something that she wanted to try out. She showed up with an expensive handmade chainlink flogger. It was very well balanced, heavy, and it required very little effort to get affect. It made her bum nice and rosey without welting, and it quickly became a favorite for both of us. My only regret... I forgot to take the attentant's advice and try placing in the freezer prior to a session. Oh well, here's to the future. I won't forget again, lol.
