Mugs with the handle broken off :(

You know if you've got a mug, and the handle breaks off...

Can you still use it? Is that normal behaviour?

I've got a mug with my name on it, and the handle is now broken off. I'm really quite fond of this mug.

Is it still OK to use it?

    i know what you mean bri ...i have had favourite mugs ...they get a carck or loose a handle and the wife doesn't want them in the house. they go in my workshops and continue their happy little lives.
    well ...most of them do. some end up sat forever looking seriously forlorn and covered in growths.

    Oh, definitely abnormal! You freak! :eek:

    Isn't it a bit hot to hold it without a handle? :eek2:

    surely it depends what you're drinking ;)

    He makes a good point. If I put hot tea in it, I'd probably have a "Owwwwww ya bastard" burny burny hot hot moment, and it ends up on the kitchen floor.

    With the mug in pieces :(

    Is it just me that thinks that orange juice, and most cold drinks, just don't seem right when drunk out of a mug? It's as if they taste different somehow. Ok, I know that's silly, but it's how my wobbly mind percieves it.

    Nope, it makes a difference. I drink cold drinks in glasses and hot ones in mugs. Unless I have no choice.

    Or unless you're a student, in which case it's normal to drink everything from an old chipped mug that hasn't seen anything but a mild rinse out for two weeks. :)

    I'm qualified to stick my fingers together with superglue, if that helps! :D

    Actually, I used to work in a couple of window factories, and we used to use superglue to stick the rubber seals together. Every now and again there'd be a spill, and I'd accidentally (honest) glue my fingers together, or to the window/door, or to the bench and/or tools. Doh! You get used to it after a while. :)

    :lol: I love that - oh bugger, I'm stuck to a window again... :D

    Definitely hot drinks out of a mug, cold drinks out of a glass. It matters.

    I reckon it should be fine. :)

    If you've got some araldyte lying around in the garage or maybe even superglue, it should work a treat.
