Where's My Pint

So.

For christmas I got a pottery tankered. Which is great - it was something I wanted, with out knowing I wanted it. It's very attractive. Drinks well. Has a nice pyramidical shape to it so it's hard to knock over.

However, 'cause it's pottery if you put it down you spend the next 10mins looking around for a glass full of amber/brown stuff going "which bastard moved my pint".

Which is most annoying.
