Woow
-
Peeps, I think we're reaching the stage where we have a competition and the winner gets 408 Beau Peep mugs.
-
I'm trying to work out Peter's contribution. I think my computer must be playing up - it just looks like "Woow"?
I'll do number 2 then.
2) Adorn your sideboard.

You have to remember that Peter has three dogs; this is probably their equivalent of 'Wow'. :D :D :D
-
3) Use as a temporary flower-vase.
-
4) Use as a keyholder - never lose your keys again.
-
Excellent, Tom!
For the girls:
5) Use as a Pastry Cutter. Produce perfect circles of pastry to make lovely jam-tarts for the man in your life!
-
6) Used on it's side it makes an ideal 'hole' for practising golf indoors... great for rainy days.

Also for the girls:
5a) Great for throwing at Peepm people.
-
5b) And broken Beau Peep Mugs are ideal for lining the bottom of a plant pot, for drainage.
-
7) Always losing your remote controls? Store them in the Beau Peep Mug. Perfect.
-
Perhaps we should weave a religion around the mug.
In the beginning was The Roger.
-
9) A surgeon could extricate the mug from Mince's orifice.
Oops, I missed out Number 8.
-
10) You could treat the mug like a bowl with a handle and serve classic Beau Peep dishes such as sausages vertically placed in mash with cabbage leaves to represent palm trees of the desert - what a fab 5th birthday party they would make for some lucky child.
-
11) If you're a policeman having a cuppa from a Beau Peep mug at a football match between Dundee United and Falkirk, in the freezing cold, and a male streaker runs onto the pitch, you could, while arresting him, preserve his modesty with the mug instead of your helmet.
-
9) A surgeon could extricate the mug from Mince's orifice.
Oops, I missed out Number 8.
Okay, I admit it. I laughed.
-
We could make this a competition, Roger. What do you think? Best suggestion gets a free mug?
-
Absolutely. Fire away. (You're sure you don't want to make it 408 mugs?)
-
Roger you should make sure you save enough mugs for your and Andrew's grandchildren and great-grandchildren and great-great-grandchildren. That could easily add up to 408.
-
Are you all utterly devoid of ideas? We've only got to 11.
-
12) You could use your mug to store any slips of paper with ideas you may have for entering competitions.
-
Drink coffee from it.
-
Careful though! It might be hot.
-
Drink coffee from it.
That was Number 1 ::)
It doesn't count.
-
Number 1 was drink coffee with it. Mine was drink coffee from it; a much more practical suggestion, since mugs can't actually drink coffee and are very poor company. ::)
-
That's a reasonable explanation and would be acceptable, but you haven't given it a number.
-
67.34
-
Facetious people don't win mugs. ::)
-
Yeah, like I had a chance anyway! ::)
-
::) ::)
You've got more chance than Mince.
-
3) Use as a temporary flower-vase.

Yes, but did I win?

We haven't got to 101 yet!

13: Paint the number 13 on your mug.
14: Paint the number 14 on your mug.
For X = 15 to 99
X: Paint the number X on your mug.
Next X
100: Paint the number 100 on your mug.
101: Paint the number 101 on your mug.

We haven't got to 101 yet!
We have now.

That's bloody excellent, Colin. :D
Did they get put into Room 101 along with Peepmaster?
-
:D Great stuff, Colin.
-
So do I win now?
;D

Colin, do you want 408 Beau Peep mugs?

No, your right Vulture.
A print would probably do instead. ;D

Can you judge this now, from all the sensible entries please, Roger? I'll send a mug in the post to the lucky winner.

Hang on a tick, Peeps. I must have missed a couple of posts. Where were the 'sensible entries'?

I'll go with Colin---for sheer effort, if nothing else.

Oh yes, I remember, he said something complimentary about Dundee United.

I would have entered but having won the last competition I was excluded.

I hope that poor Colin doesn't get stuck with the mug that was used by the cop to shield the streaker.

I just hope the streaker doesn't get the mug with the hot coffee in it!
-
:o
-
::) What's this, Mince?
-
Why do you think I would know?
-
Lord knows! ::)
How about you fix it (you know what I mean), so that we can get our nice clean smileys back, instead of these 'orrible ones?
-
I've had to adjust the settings several times now because someone with the IQ well below that of a part-boiled split-lentil has substituted the "rolls-eyes" emoticon with something totally inappropriate. I don't know who that could be, and it's not necessarily the person who has attracted the use of the aforementioned emoticon on more occasions than I've seduced adoring females, so I'm not pointing the finger.
-
He's attracted the use of that emoticon TWICE???

Woo Hoo.
I've sent you a PM Peepmaster.

I've just ordered a Beau Peep mug (my Shuggie & Duggie one has a chip in it - can't be bothered to fish it out).
Just wanted to say, Peepsie, that just because it's me that ordered it, that's no excuse for anything less than prompt First Class delivery. Ta!
By the way, are they Bovril-proof?
-

;D
-
It arrived in the post this morning. I'm delighted. It is fantastic - well worth every penny, and the wait. My life is all set to change forever - if you haven't got yours yet, then I heartily recommend you waste no more time. I'm well chuffed!
Oh, the Beau Peep mug arrived as well. It's very yellow.
-
Glad it got to you safely, Tarks, and that you like it. They are rather splendid aren't they?
They're the "must-have" accessory for 2008.
-
Get your head out of the sand, Peepmaster. Everyone knows that Beau Peep mug prices are falling.
-
Love the detachable handle for ease of dishwasher storage.
How does it go back on again?
-
must have one by tomorrow. see what you can do peeps
-
I'll pop back to the UK to send one specially, shall I? ..0
-
Always the excuses, what a sales man. You will be saying next that the computer down. Were your back up Peeps all good organisation have cover.
-
Typical the old virus Excuse will it be a long one or a short one.
How long is a piece of string.

Is this a private conversation, or can anyone join in?

Mine is a pen holder on my desk and very

Not being able to join in for so long. Here's #102.
Make a 'Most Dangerous Cake Recipe in the World!'
What you need:
• 1 coffee Beau Peep mug (must be microwave safe)
• 4 tablespoons flour (that's plain flour, not self-rising)
• 4 tablespoons sugar
• 2 tablespoons baking cocoa
• 1 egg
• 3 tablespoons milk
• 3 tablespoons oil
• 3 tablespoons chocolate chips
• (optional) some nuts (optional)
• Small splash of vanilla
Directions:
1. Add dry ingredients to mug and mix well.
2. Add the egg and mix thoroughly.
3. Pour in the milk and oil and mix well.
4. Add the chocolate chips, nuts (if using), and vanilla, and mix again.
5. Put your mug in the microwave and cook for three (3) minutes on high.
(The cake will rise over the top of the mug, but don't be alarmed!)
6. Allow to cool a little, and tip out onto a plate if desired.
7. EAT! (this can serve 2 if you want to share!)
And why is this the most dangerous cake recipe in the world?
Because now we are all only 5 minutes away from chocolate cake at any time of the day or night!

Love the detachable handle for ease of dishwasher storage.
How does it go back on again?
Peeps, There must be a defect in the mugs, as I have just noticed the top part of the handle is not connected to the mug. I have cordoned off the mug in question for health and safety precautions, and am questioning witnesses and gathering DNA evidence for this crime of premature cracking. I have been assured the mug has only contained two servings of coffee, both 'Petit Dejeuner' with milk, 2 splenda and a dash of Fabbri Vaniglia syrup (very nice they were too). The mug, when questioned, confirmed he had not spent the night with the dishwasher but remained at work and had not carried out any strenuous activities which may have brought on this condition. He asserts he was designed to carry a full portion of coffee and had not been on the heavy water.
I will casevac him to Camp Hut after work and carry out exploratory surgery using medical grade (well, at least for his species) superglue in the hope he can retain his handle and continue to serve his country.
His buddy (at Camp Hut) will also be examined for any hairline fractures. He is currently on standby to participate in Operation MUGCAKE this weekend, once the remaining ingredients participants have been bought signed on. Wait out, wait out...
P.s. Can you please check that the two new recruits I ordered today are fully fit and raring to go. I remind you that one is destined to serve with #2 brat (who is a purple belk kick boxer).

What's a 'belk'?
-
I was so-o-o-o hoping no-one would ask that, Vult.
-
Someone has fiddled with my computer. Either that or I can't spel.
It's a belt.

Further to this, and proof to Tarks that I have a bone fide real Beau Peep mug, see the attached. The second pic shows the cracking at the top of the handle. The present Mrs H would say (as she's had experience in glazing pottery) that the handle has come unstuck at the top.
-
I don't think that's possible. The handles would be affixed before biscuit firing, with slip, and following the glazing, and application of the ceramic transfers, fired again.
I can only suggest that you've been over-using the mug. Have you perhaps had hot liquids in it? Maybe your wife has washed-up clumsily at some point. Dropping the mug on the floor can also be detrimental.
Age can be another factor. How long have you had the mug?
-
Are you besmirching my honour. I have a certificate from Her Majesty which says I am an officer and a gentleman (no, hang on , it doesn't mention gentleman ..whatevah)
I shall write to my MP, care of Wormwood Scrubs, about the sale of goods here. Handles are for handling, not for falling off.
The connection between the clay of the handle and the clay of the mug is no longer a connection. It was only the glaze that held it together. TWO mugs, I say again TWO B****y mugs of coffee is all this yellow imitation of a mug has had to cope with. Then it just had a look at some lukewarm water inside (and not on the handle) and it starts to complain of a splitting headache. What's a handle for if not for holding. It's not as if I tried to climb the Eiger whilst dangling the cup from my belt.. Now then, I would accept any excuses for the handle not being up to it. But, oh no, it has to be in a warm room, lovingly protected from the world and all its troubles, and then has the affrontery to complain.
Well, I've had enough. I'm taking it home right now and giving it a right good thrashing. That will fix it. Then I shall go and stick my fingers together whilst attempting to inject some superglue into the split.
-
That's fair enough. I'll send another one...
-
Don't forget to return the faulty mug so that Peepsie can
palm it off on some other sucker who won't have the balls to complain dispose of it properly.
-
That's fair enough. I'll send another one...
Don't bother to send another, Peeps. I will repaIr him better than new, I have the technology, and can do it for less than $6,000,000. Resistance is futile.
-
Too late...
-
Bu***r!
Do I really have to sent it back? It at home now convalescing prior to the operation.
-
He's never going to make money out of it if someone actually keeps it, Hutto - we've all had that mug at some point or another.
-
No need to return it, Billy. We have a certain thing called "trust" on this forum.

Speaking of which, can I borrow a million quid?
I'll pay you back in a week, honest.

I am pleased to announce that the reinforcement arrived safely and without harm. Following a thorough physical, he has been pronounced fit and well for duties. #1 recruit has also had a physical checkup and is not suffering from split handle syndrome. He is standing by for Operation MUGCAKE tomorrow, as supplies were air-dropped today.
#2 recruit, having been reprieved from being sent back to the clutches of the Peepmaster (where undoubtedly he would have been heavily sedated and disguised and passed of to the Mince as a fit specimen, is awaiting surgery. The outcome will be posted on this board. cards and flowers are not required from well-wishers, but cash is very much welcome, especially by the Peepmaster (who continually pesters Joan for a tenner).
By the way, Peeps, recruits #3 and #4 have yet to turn up. If they do not arrive by Wednesday, they will be considered absent and the MPs (real ones, not those oicks in Westminster) will be called out to recover them.
Stand by, Stand by.

Well, I did it, with the aid of #2 mug. Yes, you can make the Most Dangerous Cake In The World using a Beau Peep mug.
The microwave survived, the mug survived - not sure if the wife, daughter or I will survive as we all had some of the cake.
I followed the instructions exactly, mixing the ingredients as required. I thought I would overflow the mug but it didn't happen. A knife was used to mix the stuff (technical term for cooking ingredients). The stuff rose up out of the cup (I have video to prove this but am not sure how to get it on YouTube (my first attempt) ). It did not fall off.
The cake came out of the mug without difficulty, but did leave a nice gooey mix in the bottom ( a bit like a soft brownie).
The cake tasted fine, not heavy but went even better with some cream. Daughter is not a lover of cakes but did like this - so much so she almost finished it herself.
I heartedly recommend this recipe to anyone who likes chocolate cake. Enjoy.
TMDCITW_1 : dry ingredients mixed with egg.
TMDCITW_2 : milk and oil added.
TMDCITW_3 : chocolate chips added - note that the one trying to escape didn't!
TMDCITW_4 : a splash of vanilla
-
TMDCITW_5 : mug and cake about to be irradiated.
TMDCITW_6 : The finished cake.
TMDCITW_7 : The cake turned out on a plate
TMDCITW_8 : The gooey mess in the bottom - tasted great.
-
TMDCITW_9 : Sir/Madam would prefer a little cream with their cake?
TMDCITW_10 : Daughter enjoying the cake (just to prove it is edible (you don't think I would do eat it)
-
Oh my...
-
No, it's not. It's mine, I made it and we et it. So there. Make your own. :P

erm... what ARE the 'dry ingredients' and weights of same??

Vulture, please pay attention. I am trying my best, but if you don't read the earlir post on this thread, you will get confused. That's why I am reading up on all past threads in order to try an understand the madness that is the Beau Peep forum.
Earlier post (middle of page 5) has the recipe.
I take no responsibility for addiction or overconsumption of this cake. Be it on your own head, but enjoy.

That was ages ago - a proper recipe has the ingredients right before the instructions! What kind of a cook ARE you? Jamie Oliver wouldn't do that!
-
The recipe, with ingredients at the front and instructions, was provided on page 5. My recent posts with pictures just records my attempt to prove the 102nd use of a BP mug.
It is NOT the recipe.
I am not a chef, merely an amateur - but the cake was still edible.
-

Anyway, who said it was a proper recipe.

I thought everything on this board was proper, innit!
-
I wonder if Mince tried the cake recipe - maybe that's why he's not posted recently?
Has anyone summoned up the fortitude to try the recipe?
-
No. I don't have a Beau Peep mug.
-
And why not .... oops, that's Peeps line.
I do have a repaired handle one I can let you have....
-
I wonder if Mince tried the cake recipe - maybe that's why he's not posted recently?
Has anyone summoned up the fortitude to try the recipe?
No. I have a nearly-d-i-l who makes spectacular 'chocolate puds in a mug' - no way would yours compare!
-
And why not .... oops, that's Peeps line.
In my case cos you can only get them in the UK. :(

-

Yes, and I'll never forgive you.

Pray tell, dear Tarks. Whatever may be the problem? Intestinal, gluttony, impacted mass in a Peep mug?
-
I've got four.

Please tell me that her name is Daffney, because that would maker her a Daffo-d-i-l.

Sorry. Her name's Lisa Simpson - it's amazing how this name opens up doors for her; she often get put at the top of the list when she phones up to answer a radio competition or something like that!

#103. Break the handle and use the mug as a pencil/pen holder for the desk, darn it.
-
Yeas, but what can you use the handle for?
-
Yeas, but what can you use the handle for?
Scratching myself
Plant pot rubble in base
throwing at Peepmaster
-
Can you throw this far? :P
-
Yes.
Bu@@@r! Missed.

Can you throw this far? :P
I thought that said: Can you throw thus far? I thought that was funnier.
