Just in case you weren't brought up in the UK in either the 70s or 80s, Michael Fish was a weatherman of the old school – serious, sensible and presumably very intelligent. Well, he did have a look of the man who would be more comfortable wearing a white coat and holding a test tube. And the Michael Fish Weather Changing Mug is a tribute to him.
What does it do? Well, it doesn't tell you the weather, you'll have to turn on the TV for that. But it does use retro weather symbols and a picture of our Michael in his 70s finery to tell you the temperature of your drink. If it's cold, the mug shows cloudy skies and an obscured sun. If the drink is hot, the dark skies lift to reveal blazing sun in a matter of seconds. Yes, it's pure novelty- but we like it.
If you want it as your next work mug, the Michael Fish Weather Changing Mug is yours for £9.95.
