Keep calm and carry on

Always on the lookout for interesting coffee mugs, I found this one over Christmas.

The story goes that the British government produced a posted with this message in 1939 – at the beginning of the Second World War. They intended to raise the morale of the British people in the face of war. However, the poster received little distribution at the time. Following its “rediscovery” in 2000, private companies have used it on a variety of products – including coffee mugs.

The message actually works in a number of settings.

See you along the Trail.
