Spotted! Fably ‘Don’t Panic!’ mug

  I’ve just discovered the ‘words’ range from Keith Brymer Jones. I’m in love. And drooling just a le-e-etle bit. I love this cup. But also the Custard Jug. And the Salad Bowl. *sigh* Keith Brymer Jones’ full ‘WORD’ range is available from Make International. You might want to potter over there…
