I seem to be accumulating an assortment of thermoses and water-bottles - each attractive, functional, and totally useless for drinking coffee at my workplace.
See, we can't have open beverages at work (too many electronics about) - so I got a container with a neat little sippy-cup top; except it's non-insulated and for cold drinks only (just try carrying hot stuff in a steel bottle - ow). Then I dug a travel mug out of my cupboard. It's insulated, but the top has to come off completely for me to drink from it. On the weekend I got a thermos with KEEP CALM AND CARRY ON on the side. I checked to see that it had a pop-top lid, but this morning I discovered that it's for pouring liquid only - if I try to drink directly from it, I get coffee splashed in my face, which is not a good look for me.
I've even tried switching the tops, but the bottle necks are different diameters.
The quest continues...
