1/ How many cups (including mugs) do you have in your kitchen?
2/ How many mugs (or cups) do you have that don't match your other mugs (and cups) but you keep them because you know, you might have guests round and if everyone wants a cup (or a mug) of coffee (or tea*) then you might run out of cups and mugs and need to break out the ones that don't quite match the others?

* or any other hot beverage

I don't know,
about half of them are upstairs at any one time, but round about 6. Only two of them match.

I have a favourite tea mug and a favourite coffee cup and get very upset if other people use them.
The coffee one is just the right size for half a pot of a coffee and just the right amount of milk. The tea mug is enormous but bone china so the tea cools down quickly.
