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,

Dear MN Towers,

Please may we have a cup of tea emoticon?

(Not too strong, Fair Trade of course, quite milky for me.)

If it's in a generic, stubby mug, it could be coffee too, or hot chocolate...

Liver disease is on a massive upward trend at the moment - do your bit for the Big Society - offer a viable alternative.

[tea] [cuppa] [cupoftea] [nice sit down] Brew

sigh...

How about we want the cup that cheers us up?

Usual I'll pour.

usualsuspect · 04/02/2011 21:46

cocoa with a slug of baileys in it is ok

GrimmaTheNome · 04/02/2011 21:45

But looking at the time...

[cocoa] ?

GrimmaTheNome · 04/02/2011 21:43

SO, we're girls.

we want 'The cup that cheers but does not inebriate' as my mother used to say.

Cos you can't drink Wine all day.

LadyPumpington · 04/02/2011 21:39

Uh oh don't think it was a good idea recruiting usual...how about if we add a drop or two of the strong stuff usual?

I would like a tea/coffee cup, I think it might get a bit much if we had a teapot, tray etc!
