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,

found it! still a sticky on site stuff.
374:84 so unless there's a massive influx of "unpleasant" posters it looks like Norman can claim a victory for the [cup] brigade.

by the by, how comes MN plonk (pun intended) a Wine on us but we have to vote for a [tea]?

TheNewStig · 10/02/2011 23:31

30mins to go, poll's been unstickied, was going to go check the results.

Right then! Less than 3 hours to go! Looks like we are still in the lead. Am amazed actually that so many people wanted cups! But delighted nonetheless.

SoMuch is also having a Wine, although I am sticking with the [tea] myself.

OP posts:

vote going ok atm 325:72, it's looking encouraging...

TheNewStig · 10/02/2011 09:15

I do too Stealth....

stealthsquiggle · 10/02/2011 09:11

Morning, Norman

I need RL coffee now...

NormanTheForeman · 10/02/2011 08:08

Morning all. Hope you all slept well.

I'm afraid SoMuch is so old that Playmobil didn't arrive until she was about 13. So my mates and I are the first generation of Playmobil in our family.

Must go and check how voting is going...

TheNewStig · 10/02/2011 07:00

Stealth - not good. I'm fairly sure I know where ours is but it's not in this country (lived abroad, family still do) so I can't get the '70s generation. I remember having a colour your own set too, was all plain white with a set of indelible marker pens. None of that set, hospital iirc, ever sported a good look :o
