I'm loving slogans at the moment (manic) and I've bought some new mugs.  I have a pint mug which says I  <3 my tea, another I'm silently correcting your grammar; I play squash to stay sane; sassy since birth and I speak fluent sarcasm,  I also have now panic and freak out!  They really make me and the crisis team smile.  What is your favourite mug?

    You love your dolphins obviously.  I swam with wild dolphins at Monkey Mia in Australia in 1984.  What an experience, but it's banned now, which is probably for the good  :)

    My favourite mug (apart from myself lol) is one I bought from Card Factory in Meadowhall about 11 years ago, that says "Not a morning person", and it's right I never have been.

    I have two chalkboard mugs that you can write/draw on with chalk. They're useful for jotting down how people take their hot drinks, and can be fun to doodle on too. I'll have to steal and write on some of your slogans @coylygirl!

    I speak fluent sarcasm is genius :D 

    My favourite mug is my Harry Potter cauldron mug, because it makes me fee like a wizard, and it holds quite a lot of liquid

    That's why I love my pint mug!  Drinking tea like it's going out of fashion atm.  I like your cauldron - hubble, bubble, toil and trouble!  Do you make any special potions?

    I'm a proud Yorkshireman, tea is always considered a special potion :D

    I'm a coffee guy really, not too hot, mid strength, loads of milk and no sugar.

    I don't think I've ever actually bought a mug but we've a cupboard full of mismatched mugs that have been gifted to us over the years. Everything from fancy glass ones, crude puns, a large number of kids novelty mugs and of course the oversized Sports Direct mug. I'm currently drinking coffee from a Star Wars-themed Yoda mug. :D

    I've always had a favourite mug. When I was a student and had to go down the corridor for drinking water, I used a pint mug, and I went on using it for years afterwards.
    Then I had one with flowers, which eventually consigned itself to mug heaven by loosing its handle whilst in use, and falling to the floor where it shattered.
    Now I have another with sunflowers on it, and one plain blue one, which compete for my attention. The plain blue one was given to me by someone very dear, which is why its in the competition.
    I also have an un-favourite mug, that I only use when builders are in  the house. It's from an organisation on the occasion of their 100th anniversary, and  I'd better not name them I suppose on a public board, but I find their logo truly uninspiring. Anyone else got a mug they don't want to use but can't get rid of because it was a gift?

    I love all your mug comments, I use mine dependent on my mood and to give the crisis team a giggle.  My mug tree is now full, so no more mugging for me  :)
