So where's the cup of tea emoticon then?

I see we have a new wine glass emoticon! Jolly good! But some of us would prefer a good old cup of tea.

Do you think you could cater for the likes of us too?

Lots of love,

Have you just seen the new message from Tech that said that the shutdown will be slightly delayed?

Cups, cups, cups!

Morning LadyP! Yes, at about 10 am I believe. Am hoping that the essential site maintenance will include provision of a teacup emoticon!

I definitely drink my tea strong! Grin Builders-style.

By the way, we are very Envy of you, belgo, as you will soon be able to buy some lovely harbour sets, including a ferry! We will have to wait until next year....

Morning everyone

I think mumsnet is going offline for a bit while they upgrade or am I wrong?

belgo · 06/02/2011 09:43

Of course they have tea in Playmobil land! It just might be a a cup of boiling water with a perfumed tea bag and no milk.

But I suspect Norman is a british expat anyway and drinks very english tea with plenty of sugar.

People who are still up must not be drinkers right? More hot beverage people? What you need is a teacup emoticon, so please come show your support. Thanks
