"Carpe Fucking Diem!"

"Seize the day my babber!"

'Carpe Diem' is the classic Latin expression for 'Seize The Day', originally from a 23BC Roman poem by Horace.

As relevant as ever, this modern adaptation brings the ancient world crashing into the modern experience. With a backprint graffiti piece of Jerry the Mouse taken straight from the Bristol streets.

Every sip you take you are reminded to 'seize the day' from the print inside the mug. Complete with Bristolian lingo 'my babber', a term of endearment meaning 'my baby' or loved one.

This mug is a call to take action to make your own future today!
