you see some of us will be able to make tea for 2 football teams, if they turned up unannounced, fail to prepare, prepare to fail

do you drink from the front or the back?

i alternate

We have 30 but we don't use all of them. Some of them have pens, fans, hairsicks, my mp3, a few vaping bits oh & pliers & a single hole punch!

like a normal hole punch but only making one hole?

 

[marty21]

like a normal hole punch but only making one hole?

surely a double hole punch can also be used to make one hole?

It would probably be too big to fit in a mug though

might be an extra big mug

a Sports Direct mug! Finally a use for them

Yep

Edited to add: it's an old metal one, my Stepdad used to use it for work

See for me that would be a coffee mug not tea

 

[kittyP]

I buy a lot of stuff from sportsdirect and they insist on sending this oversized fucking mug that has no purpose whatsoever. I mean this mug needs two tea bags for it to make a proper cup of tea. Fuck off sportsdirect you wankers!

Badgers uses one of those for his morning coffee.
I think it's two heaped teaspoons of coffee and three of sugar.

I also have coffee in it, and occasionally a hot chocolate

I don't like drinking tea and coffee out of the same mugs/cups.

It might be more than that. I will ask him.

Nine mugs, no cups. Current favourites:

I've got a gigantic pint one for when you need excessive amounts of tea, too.

 

[Pickman's model]

Yep

is that awl?

 

[Pickman's model]

I also have coffee in it, and occasionally a hot chocolate

and sometimes the two together no doubt

 

[KeeperofDragons]

is that awl?

No, it's actually a hole punch

There are some of my mugs I won't have coffee in, but most are ok for tea.

I didn't realise this thread was here and I missed out two mugs that are used elsewhere

 

[Throbbing Angel]

We have too many mugs and coffee cups. Mrs A keeps liberating them every time a course or hotel is involved

 

[StoneRoad]

There must be at least a dozen mugs - of several sizes - and three cups at work. The boss has six mugs and six cups on his boat.
At home ---- I've no idea but lots of them, some with history and scars - others are souvenirs, usually bought to support a project or establishment.

Just gone and had a quick count - I estimated over 75 ! and I know that there are several others about the place.

 

[weltweit]

I got my username from one of my mugs. I was wondering what to call myself and I decided on the American Indian method of something I could see at the time, hence running bear, white cloud, or in my case a mug of a German company claiming they were worldwide (weltweit)

 

[Orang Utan]

Fairly weak coffee in a mug thst size, tbf.

I'd have five or six in that.

 

[Onket]

I have 2 spoons of coffee in a normal mug so I reckon 5 or 6 in one of those whoppers is about right.

 

[kittyP]

Apparently it's three heaped teaspoons of coffee and 4 brown sugars.
I was getting confused with the slightly smaller mug.

Also he has it black so I don't know if it really makes a difference.

 

[Onket]

Useless.

 

[Johnny Vodka]

7 - precisely one more than my mug holder has room for.

My favourites are two mugs I brought back from the dam.

 

[spanglechick]

Not sure.

4 green ones
4 black and white
2 designed by madzone
1 pink floral one
1 blue and white spotty one (best mug - tis huge)
1 that was a gift from girasol
1 that was a gift from Dooby
1 that he won in the dhfc raffle last week
3 given to me as leaving presents

But I'm probably forgetting some. Say 20. Then I have some sixties harlequinware tea and coffee cups (6 of each) and a thirties tea set (another 6).
