I’m Not A Paper Cup

September 15, 2008 on 10:03 am | By admin | In Cool, Novelty, White | Comments Off

I’m a big lover of cafe style culture in my kitchen. So I like to have my Starbucks mugs, and cafe style pictures on the wall. So when I saw this “paper cup”, I knew I had to get it. It bares all the hallmarks of the familiar takeaway cup found in endless cafes, but with one vital difference: it’s not mae from paper. It’s made from double walled, plain white porcelain and comes with a heat conserving, silicon lid.

If you want one of those too, pop over to I Want One Of Those, where the “I’m Not A Paper Cup” costs £12.99.

Self Stirring Mug

The self stirring mug aims to put teaspoons out of business. Forget stirring it yourself, simply press the button and the propellor in the buttom of the mug will stir up your drink. This is the mug that Q would use in the James Bond films.

Not one for everyday use, I might venture, but a cool little novelty mug which will impress your friends. Find the self stirring mug on Amazon….

MyCuppa Mug With Tea Guide

This is an interesting mug. People can get quite fussy about the milkiness of their tea and this mug has a several colours around the rim which you can use as a guide for putting in milk and matching the colour. The options are Milky, Classic British, Builder’s Brew and Just Tea. I think I’d fall into the Classic British camp!

A Mug With A Blackboard On It

April 18, 2008 on 6:18 am | By admin | In Novelty | No Comments

Ok, I don’t think we use the term black board any more, but this handy mug even comes with a piece of chalk so you can write out your explicit instructions as to how you like your tea! Without wanting to be too literal, it would probably be a perfect gift for a teacher!

Available now from Heals.co.uk for £5

Breast/Booby Mug - Worst Mug Ever?

March 9, 2008 on 10:48 am | By admin | In Novelty | No Comments

I’m not really one for thie kind of humour, so to me this is the worst mug I have ever seen. Something more belonging to a scene in ‘Allo ‘Allo than anyone’s kitchen cupboard in 2008. But, I understand that some people may enjoy the prospect of supping their tea from a vulgar breast shaped mug. If this is your cup of tea, check it out at Amazon.co.uk - only £3.99 at time of writing.

Use the force with a Darth Vader Mug

October 9, 2007 on 10:31 am | By admin | In Black, Cool, Culture, Novelty | No Comments

The force is strong with this one. It’s a cool Darth Vader mug, available from Play.com for around £5. Darth Vader is one of the greatest “baddies” to ever grace the big screen, and now you can celebrate the black caped one with this mug in the shape of Darth Vader’s head. If you love Star Wars, this mug is perfect for you. Some of the reviews I have read suggest that chipping is likely in a dish washer, so maybe stick to hand washing.

Asteroids do not concern me, Admiral. I want that mug, not excuses
