@Teaformeplease

I got my mug today, thank you Grin. Lucky it was in one piece though as the thoughtful postie threw it over the side gate. Despite a large label with "fragile" on the box Angry.

Hiya Teaformeplease. Phew! That's good to hear. Hope you enjoy your cuppa and while you're sat sipping your brew you can hang out and chat on Mumsnet!

I used to post very regularly on the pregnancy boards - kids are up a good bit now and I seem to have backslidden to lurker again!

Brew arrived safely today - thank you very much, MNHQ, I shall enjoy my after-work cuppa tonight!

Dragonara It's nice that your daughter has introduced you to the joy of Mumsnet! I might see if I can persuade my mum to join - she'd love The Litter Tray as she spoils adores her little cat!
