Cuppa or Hot Beverage?

[HelenMumsnet]

Hello. The result of our cup of tea emoticon poll show a clear win for the cuppa fans.

So.... all that remains is to decide what text we all type in to make our cup of tea emoticon appear.

Would you like [cuppa] ?

Or the rather less liquid-specific/more amusing but longer-to-type [hot beverage] ?

Do let us know...

You forget me ?? [aghast]

How could you? [dejected]

I"ve been here longer than that upstart HelenMumsnet you know. I'm sure I have.

That's what you think, SoupDragon

hmm

i'm not sure but it will be quite useful i suppose.

So... ta da...

Here's your

It's not at all quite a mug but that's because DamianTech went for without telling us!

So enjoy - and we'll mug up properly next week

you are an upstart with ideas above your station.

Hoorayyyyyy!!!!!

Have a celebratory

Er... that's a rubbish emoticon. Too weeny. You should have gone with the mug which has less detail.

Sack Damian, whoever he is.
Bring back Tech!

Nice to see a new smiley created especially for me

Helen you know you can bang your gavel as much as you like, but if you have unhappy MN'ers it will just go on and on and on until you relent - so you might as well just do it now :)

Why not have a proper vote about the name like you did for the 'to have or not to have' poll?

Although - I'd still like to know why we need the emoticon in the first place especially as you haven't sorted out my one or Maryz's yet - harumph.

cross post

Need to go and make a now.

It's cute - just can't really see the point of it??

Does anyone want to enlighten me??

Chipping, I think the point is the pointlessness.

[mug] without a doubt.

Oh, I see I am too late. Doh!

I'm with Maryz. Witches brew.

Oh, how apt!

Something easy and quick to type (for all the mobile mn-ers)

[cup] gets my vote, sounds homely, also good, [cuppa] unneccesarily long.

hee hee

1. Yes you do brew coffee
2. It's what y'all wanted
3. We're going to change it to a mug on Monday so we can't call it cup can we? Unless we leave it as a cup...
4. Ok we'll sack Damian
5. It's irrelevant anyway - it's well past wine time

[kidding Damian]

Don't worry Justine! I'm just pleased we have a emoticon.
