As a big fan of Scalextric, it made a huge impact on my formative years, I was delighted – nay, deliriously happy – to receive this superb new Scalextric mug adorned with sixties box cover art. It comes from those purveyors of innovative automobilia-related items – Meandmycar.co.uk.

You can really be a kid again everytime you enjoy a cup of tea or coffee. Hey, but why stop there. What about camomile, green, Darjeeling, beetroot and ginger et al..? This mugnwill appeal to all!

It costs a reasonable £7 and is available from www.meandmycar.co.uk or at the other end of 01865 883 061 ENDS.
