The picture shown is actually what we call a mug in America. Most commonly used for coffee while over there they drink tea as much as we drink coffee and coffee is more a treat and non regular food item.

I'm from America and some of us say holiday instead of vacation, some of us say mobile phone instead of cell phone, and some of us say mug instead of cup. I just wanted to say that... And the British way of writing the date makes more sense than the American way. Why put the month before the day when the day is smaller???
