Show us your mug!

EmilieT — Mon, 18 Jun 2018 12:48:53 GMT

Hi everyone,

It's Monday, midday, time for a cup of tea/coffee! While you're drinking your beverage of choice, I thought it'd be fun for everyone to share a snap of their mug or cup.

Classic, funky, artsy?

Show us your favourite mug!

I have a few different mugs and I want to grow my collection! I loooove colourful pretty cups with matching saucers. I recently ordered this one below from Amazon and I can't wait to use it for my morning coffee! It's arriving sometime this week.

Here is my secret santa present from my last position (one before the one I am in now).

Note: @Martin-O2 @Marjo @EmilieT can someone please rotate this? On my PC it is the correct way up, and rotating it before I upload it has no effect... aaarrgggh!

@Marjo That's a goregous cup, I'd love to have an afternoon tea with those cups (you should bring the cups, I'll bring the cakes)!

@gmarkj What a funny Secret Santa Did you ever find out who it came from? (Secret Santas have only remain secret for so long in my experience...)

Here's my favourite mug, it's an adorable happy dog called Henri swimming and looking for fishes

Hey Folks!

As we don't have personalized cups at work (would be too many) we put them on the table and use the one at the place we choose.
Today I had one from the monitor-producer Corpuls. I guess. I don't drink hot stuff, so I put it back into the cupboard 😅

Thanks for the rotation @EmilieT.
Yes I found out - it was fairly obvious as he was laughing the loudest and was very pleased with himself!

I have to say I am very fussy about mugs...I don't like thick massive mugs.

I like china mugs made by Rose of England...(Snooty me)

I have about 8, Only I use them. These are two of mine

@ComaChameleon It's like musical chairs but with mugs then? Sounds fun, even if you don't drink any hot drinks (not even hot chocolate??)

@gmarkj Happy to help I can believe he was laughing loudly, and I'm sure he was as well when he pruchased the mug and wrapped it

@Cleoriff Those two cat mugs are adorable, I love the style of the drawings on them. I'd never heard of Rose of England before but I just had a look and I might just get a couple of new mugs soon ... Some of them might fit well in @Marjo's ongoing collection as well!

They are nice mugs @EmilieT

I love them

@EmilieT i guess you mean traveling to Jerusalem (one chair missing, all moving, music stops, you try to get a seat). But yes, kinda as there is everytime the same crew (fire dept hast 3 groups, we have 5 or 6), you don't have a fix seat ^^
And nope, I let it get cold 😅

He was, even more so when I had to put the accompanying wig on (bright orange/ginger curly thing)
Luckily no photos that I know of!!

How unlucky were you @gmarkj?

Here you are

Re: Show us your mug!

gmarkj — Tue, 19 Jun 2018 13:16:26 GMT

Not far off actually - no glasses and goatee instead of full beard and that was pretty much it!

Luckily for you, unluckily for us Something similar to the wig@Cleoriff found would have made for a fun photo of a good memory!

@ComaChameleon I had never heard of Traveling to Jerusalem, only the musical chairs but yes, that's exactly what I meant Cold hot chocolate is delivious, to be fair, and you can still have it in a mug 😛

hi everyone

Hi @rylo64, and welcome to the forum! If you want to tell us a bit more abotu yourself, you can head to this introduction topic. Good to have you here

@ComaChameleon You know my German isn't the best but that's an awesome mug, it'd be pretty well received by your colleagues as well I'm sure! It could be a good Secret Santa present idea for later this year if you guys do that?

... can't get image to post = it has a pink Little Miss Chatterbox on it

A friend gave me this . . it's bigger than a tea cup but not so hefty as a half pint pot
