Alex Drake Mug
Psychologist DI Alex Drake is the female protagonist in the popular BBC1 programme "Ashes to Ashes" - the sequel to award-winning "Life on Mars". Played by Keeley Hawes ("Mutual Friends"; "Tipping the Velvet"), Alex is originally from 2008, where she lives with her daughter Molly and has regular contact with her godfather Evan White. She travles back to 1981 after she is shot in the head when a hostage situation goes horribly awry. She wakes up to find herself face to face with DC Chris Skelton, DS Ray Carling and the fabled DCI Gene Hunt - the characters from "Life on Mars" - as well as a new addition to the team - Shaz Granger. Alex initially believes that everyone around her is an imaginary construct her dying mind has created having assimilated Sam Tylers fantasies. She spends the first series attempting to save her parents - two very well known lawyers who were killed in a car bomb in front of Alex's own eyes when she was a child - believing that this will be her key to getting home to her daughter. However, all her beliefs are confused during the second series - particularly with the arrival of Martin Summers who is also from 2008. The series 2 finale further confuses things when Alex awakes in 2008, only to be plagued by images to Gene telling her to "wake up". Throughout the programme, Alex has also begun to accept the others as more than her imaginary constructs, and becomes quite close to them. In S02E07, she declares that she loves them all, and in S02E06, she gives a letter to each of them to be opened when she leaves. The relationship between Alex and Gene Hunt is viewed by many fans as crucial to the series - although naturally there are disagreements over this. Many people "ship" the two characters together, and often term the pairing "GAlex".

very cool kanye for me gave it to my crush and now were dating so yea
I bought a Prone mug and i love it its so good imma prone to the bathroom now brb
This mug gives my life purpose. It's what I've always said. Patience is a virtue and hard work never betrays. Ever since I was born I've been struck with one misfortune after another, but today it all paid off. I got my own mug, and I use it anywhere and whenever I can! Both of my legs are shattered because to my wife threw me in the middle of traffic and my windpipe is messed up due to me screaming all the way from the crash site to the hospital thanks to the unbearable pain I was feeling. Although even with all that's happened this is still the best day of my life. I suppose the only problem I have is that whenever I happen to look at my cup I get a little too happy. That causes problems because my life support can't handle my exhilaration, haha! I'm just kidding; that was just a little lighthearted joke of mine. I actually cannot afford life support because I spent all of my life savings on this fine piece of pottery. Not to worry though! I can get through the pain with my will and drugs - I mean medication. P.S. There are definitely no ghosts in the mugs. Just wanted to point that out in case someone was worried about that.
I bought two mugs as gifts for coworkers and they were very pleased. The print was clear and concise. Hopefully they last a long time.
Ordered a gift for a friend I hope he likes it :)

My Name is Walter Hardwell White, My Mug was sent to 308 Negra Aroyal Lane, AQ, New Mexico and arrived on-time and I am very satisfied. My "Glock Dookie" mug is great for my lab work, and my friend Pinkman loves it!
I love this cup! My now ex-husband loves his opioids more than life itself. He would constantly pass out dead to the world the only thing I would here was his death moans. I had to call an aid car for him so many time that I can't remember plus 2 or 3 times the doctors told me that if it wasn't for me, he would have died. Her abandoned me after I was diagnosed with ovarian cancer because I was of no use to him any longer. I have no clue now who must be the one that's obligated to save his life any longer. All I know is I'm free from him now. The only thing I'm waiting for is that he finally overdoses himself & he's dead. I am buying a cup to send to him for our divorce anniversary gift so he can keep it in memory of how he treated me.
I loved it! Excellent quality!
I received the mug as a gift from a friend with whom I exchange "Weekaversary" eMails. I love the concept but am wondering why "aniversary" is spelled with only one "n?"
Wish it had the example text as well, but I loved it anyway
It’s great to be able to create your own mug.
My name is is Geet and literally this is literally a gem of a souvenir to have with me XD.
I love to put my lips on this in the morning
