It's good to see Debenhams looking out for their customers this way.

hmm
patronising. I like the change to cup/mug, though. Coffee shops just don't standardise

i dont think cup or mug are recognised size standards.

they are by me
where as big and small coffees vary from place to place.

i don't think they will let you take your own mug and cup.
Meaning the same problem still arises. What's stopping them having really small mugs, or really big cups?

cup is a recognised measurement

( Naked Ape call me Caitlyn, Fri 2 Nov 2012, 13:44, Reply)

really?
I thought that was only in the way that if everything is measured in cups, so half a cup, whole cup etc, then the recipe is alright no matter what size cup you have, rather than an actual weight/measure.

i have a set of cup measurers

I spent a full two minutes
trying to work out which word "oak" went into in order to make something rude.

Fucking hell, I need a holiday. Or at least a break.
( the mighty badger Aphrodite, on a bar stool, by your side, Fri 2 Nov 2012, 14:09, Reply)

if they are marked "whole cup" "half cup" etc,
Then you are a fucking moron.

I'm willing to bet that they are.
And he is.

I think tangles,
Mr. Ape is going to be feeling quite the fool.

Particularly when he spots that the one belonging to Mrs Ape, labelled "moon", has got mixed in with them.
