Plato's Cave Search and Rescue Team - Mug

Somebody has to go back down for the ones still facing the wall. Casualty rates are high and the rescued rarely say thank you. It lives on a ceramic mug, which means it gets read every single morning.

• Works at the desk: Wide handle, stable base — no wobble across a cluttered reading table.
• Print that stays put: The design will not fade out after a fortnight of washing up.

Turn around. The fire is behind you and the exit is uphill. Best used for the first coffee, before anyone has said anything to you. Add it to the cart before the kettle boils.
