I broke Walt's mug this morning. His favourite Other than his other favourite mug, which Hurley broke a couple of months ago. Luckily, I have tracked down an identical replacement and placed an order. A pity the previous mug is proving much harder to replace.

I'm sure he'll forgive you, especially if you can get a look-a-like
My sisters have chipped and broken every mug I've ever had. I don't know why my mugs annoy them so much

When I confessed the breakage, he was immediately appeased by the fact that I had already sourced the replacement. It broke quite cleanly in two, so he wants to stick it back together and use it as a pen pot.
We have rather more mugs than we actually need, but the ones that get broken always have to be the 'irreplaceable' ones, don't they?

"'Source' is *not* a verb, okay?"

According to my dictionary, source is a transitive verb...
"to come from, originate; to obtain"
I sourced that definition from the Chambers Dictionary.

The grammar police strikes again
And I'd probably glue it back together for pens too In fact I tend to use chipped or leaking favoured mugs for pens or make-up/brushes. I also keep my favourites away from my sisters that way!
