Mr Light

In September 2010 my boyfriend had just started working as a Learning Manager (a sort of substitute teacher) at a local school where he was hoping to go on to become a P.E. teacher. His birthday landed in September too so it was the perfect opportunity to mark both his new career and his having aged another year. 

On the mug I wanted him to be teaching a lesson so looked up some equations online and came across one for 'orifice gas flow' which is perfect for Steven given his love of breaking wind. I wrote the equation out on a white board with his stood in front of it and had some of his favourite sporting implements around the other side of the mug to keep the P.E. teaching dream alive. I finished it off by cutting letters out of magazines (had some funny looks when doing this at work) and sticking them on to form his new moniker 'Mr Light'.
