Help please

Can anybody help with this problem  , a number of years ago you could buy a gizmo that fitted onto the rim of the Army 44 ptn metal mug to stop you from scalding your mouth when drinking from theses mugs ,I have looked on the internet but can't find any thing if anybody has any idears please let me know , regards Angon

Electrical tape round the rim will help.

Dunno about that, sorry, but I prefer a plastic mug to my titanium one as it's lighter and doesn't burn my lips.  And dirt cheap!  Maybe change?

Always carry an aladdin insulated mug

I don't burn my lips on my titanium mug but I used to with an enamel or aluminium one. You can buy a plastic lip thingy to go on the crusader mugs, try army surplus stores......or use a plastic one and let the drink cool as others have suggested!!

whats the problem with plastic mugs above the tree line?

What GOF says. I use my Help for Heroes silicone wristband but it would be too much of a stretch for a 44 pattern metal mug. Mind you, I have to wonder why anyone would use such a mug.

hello Mal, where have you been?

what's a help for heroes silicon wristband?

This is one holding my Heiney pot in its clone.

It's a silicone wrist band produced to raise income for the the Help for heros charity. It can handle high temperatures without getting too hot itself,

That's the idiots guide.

Yes, i'm curious to know too.

Used a plastic mug for years, including over the tree line.

Gave up with tin mugs back in the Scouts, 'cause they scald one's lips!

A tip is to mash the tea with half a cup of boiling water (similar with coffee) then top up with water less hot ,then no need to wait for it to cool down and less fuel needed to heat water.

are all charity wristbands silicon?

can i use one for supporting orphaned Arab children instead?
