Title: Re-using coffe/tea cups.
Post by: Kleftiwallah on April 20, 2019, 11:34

Does anyone have a source of plastic coffee/tea cups?  Both me and the Memsahib are now retired and the sources are no more!

Cheers,  Tony. :blush:

I wish!  They moved onto paper cups in the office before I left - better for  the environment maybe, but not for me.  My old ones are failing due to plastic fatigue ....   :(  I might have to learn how to make paper pots - except newspapers have disappeared too.  :ohmy: :(

£1 shops sell them if all else fails. I bought 1pt plastic beer glasses the last couple of years for my tomatoes. Garden centres usually have an area with used pots in to help yourself too if that helps

I re-use yogurt pots and find them very useful.  I buy the fairly local Longley Farm brand - they are based in Holmfirth, not sure how widely available they are outside Yorkshire.   They are just the right size but I am sure others would do.
