    Gosh, Mug-gate just keeps getting worse Cinny! I hate it when people 'borrow' my stuff, which is why I've got a very obviously-me mug right now and a High School Musical holographic plastic tumbler for my water! Nobody would dare use that! :p

    Wendz, I went to the Childhood museum last year and really enjoyed it! Was so nice to see toys I used to play with and reminisce! Again, it was a little depressing, but still nice! :)

    So glad the sun is shining today. In a surprisingly happy mood this morning, hope it lasts! :)

    Urghh that would annoy me Cinny! Love the high school music cup!

    Not sunny here but looks like it might brighten up later.

    My new work has a 'free for all' policy with mugs - I don't know how to bring mine in and insist on using it and it alone without coming across a lil crazy! Weirdly it doesn't bother me with glasses, although I do keep meaning to take my butterbeer tumbler in to use!

    Tell them you have a very infectious mouth disease. They'll never use your mug again :rotfl:

    Oh my goodness, the horror! :eek: Not even joking! :o Maybe just get into a little habit of washing your mug every night and putting it back on your desk rather than in the cupboard... surely everyone will have a favoured mug that they prefer to use so they might not look at you like you're too crazy! Or go mug painting and make a really ugly mug with your name all over so no-one else will want to use it! :p

    Our mugs are all company standard with the logo on lol. If you use your own you have to wash it up yourself and we are all very lazy lol.

    Ah the joys of working from home! I can use whatever mug I want and there's no chance of my "colleagues" (aka DS) reaching the cupboard never mind using my mug! :rotfl: my lunch is a different matter though :o

    I'm glad it's not just me that thinks its insane! I've tried keeping one on my desk but whenever someone else offers to make the tea they always bring it in a fresh cup even if I've given them mine. The trauma!
