Richard Stuart - The Mug Man

A self proclaimed "radio anorak" is attempting to get into the Guinness Book of Records for having the biggest collection of radio station mugs in the UK.

Richard Stuart from Belcoo in Northern Ireland now has over 117 mugs from different radio stations across Britain but needs many more!

Affectionately known as ‘The Mug Man’, he is now appealing to radio stations everywhere to send him a mug to help him get into the record books. If you have a mug you’d like to send Richard, get in touch. The more mugs the better!

Richard's quest first came to light when Freelance Journalist Rodney Edwards interviewed him for the Impartial Reporter in County Fermanagh.

Richard is obsessed with radio and also cites ‘Bucks Fizz' as his all time favourite band. After the story went out in the Impartial Reporter I was inundated with calls from radio stations wanting to send him a mug and interview him on air. I think it's a fun challenge for every single radio station in the UK and beyond to get involved in.

Forget trying to fix the Christmas Number 1 - help the mug man's record attempt, it's much better!
