I never thought I'd turn into the sort of person who liked a certain mug or wine glass .....

... I used to mock my mother for requesting a certain tea cup. But I've found myself noticing if DH makes me a coffee and its in the 'wrong' mug , and I've just gone back into the kitchen to tip my wine into another glass.

I'm officially old and I've turned into my mother.

I can't help but think just how brave some of you are, buying some mugs off the internet! I have to feel them (with my hands not my face ) before I buy them.

I like a mug, preferably a fairly thin one. My favourite one has a crack down the side and the handle broke off, so pens live in it now. The next one I like is just the right size and says 'world's best mum'. Naturally this is Truth as the mug says it.

I think I'm going to clear out the mug cupboard and buy myself a new one. I've seen a lovely cosy looking one in B&M. I'm not fancy

Oh, forgot to say - don't you hate those mugs where you can feel the transfer of the image on them? So horrible.

My absolute favourite Emma Bridgewater mug.

charleyaarleysaunt - totally feeling your horror!

The gift mug may just be the worst possible gift. Does not even have to be fully unwrapped for horror to seep in - they are almost never any use but what does one do?

YANBU.... don't touch my Emma Bridgewater otter mug.
