Emotions are stirring

An interesting exchange of views below, relating to our recent piece on QS mugs - the new must-have accessory for every self-respecting practitioner.

Surely t-shirts and caps are just around the corner?

'What is there to love about QSs?

This question is prompted by the artwork on the Valentine's Day Mug as promoted in the 10 February 2006 issue of QS News.

What can it be about QSs that stirs such emotion in the currency of the realm? I would luv to know the answer.'

Alan McDonald, Charles Scott and Partners

And the response...

From freelance QS Andy Moran, who is offering the mugs on a new website:

'Surely the motto of all QSs is ‘show me the money!'

Do your readers want to be the envy of their colleagues? Then what says it better than going to your next meeting with the latest in site chic. Go to www.brickcounter.com.

Chipped and stained mug? No thanks I've brought my own, you will cry.'
