#150 Lug My Mug

I've been doing this for some time (but been getting slack of late at the office).  Time to get back into it!

My partner and I often appear at our local (near our home) with mugs in hand - the cafe owner is disappointed when we're not bringing our own :)

I've found some cafes don't like filling the mug, even though the cost of additional milk is minimal (and less than the cost of the cup to them!) - but I do much prefer coffee out of a real mug instead of cardboard - tastes so much better!

I recently bought a "keepcup" and use it instread of take away coffee cups. It comes everywhere with me and coffee shops love it because it is designed to go under the machine :-). It's very cool - has levels marked inside for small/regular etc. There are several different ones available now I believe - the trick is to make sure the person making the coffee doesn't make it in a cardboard cup and then pour it into your cup to serve you ! GRRR
