I don't really care about the mugs, it just seems a bit off to me.

Surely, DD subscribers save effort for all parties? DO we get a cheaper price than non-DD subscribers or something?

Anonymous have threatened DOS attacks on Denis unless we get our mugs. Assange has threatened revelations of what Felix Denis has under his patio.

I'm also a Direct Debit subscriber who has looked longingly at the mugs offered to new subscribers, and wondered how I might get one myself. Perhaps if I threaten to cancel my subscription if I don't get a mug. That sort of underhand behaviour isn't really my style, though.

Urvogel - You might be happier with Fortean Times' gifts if they were like this one my girlfriend bought me last Christmas.

EDIT - Experts will notice I placed the archaeopteryx on a computer monitor from the same period in pre-history for effect. Wink

Oh, I certainly would like that! Very Happy

FT, take note, your subscribers like plushies of long dead animals!

Yeah, sorry about the poor pic. I've been practicing taking dark, grainy, blurry and generally indistinct photographs so I can get a picture of our black cat in the garden and sell it to the tabloids.

I'll get a better pic of it when I get the time along with the little chick that comes with it which I didn't put in the first pic because, well, it's god damn ugly!

There are no surplus Fortean Time branded mugs - they've been sent out to people! (Although I am not one of those people who were lucky enough to get one mug, let alone two or three!)

Mug related puns aren't really my cup of tea...

That was uncalled for... Embarassed
