SarahJo Posted April 29, 2005 Share Posted April 29, 2005 www.gltc.co.uk have funky cups and spoons. Not too sure about cosies as our eggs are scoffed as soon as they leave the pan . Find these on page 2 of Kitchen Essentials, in the home and safety section Also, have matching timer, egg masher and whisk for scrambled.

Louise Posted April 29, 2005 Share Posted April 29, 2005 Hi dispic the same thing happened to me it was so funny trying to eat the boiled eggs and soldiers with no egg cups Checked the link Sarah they are so funky and I think the fridge magnet I have at home must be from the same set it was a gift so I'm not sure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jangle Posted April 29, 2005 Share Posted April 29, 2005 eBay.co.uk is an excellent place to get egg cups. However, as I know to my cost it is also highly addictive so be careful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lesley Posted April 29, 2005 Share Posted April 29, 2005 We have loads of egg-cups but that didn't stop me from visiting ebay! You can always use the egg box while you are waiting? (that's what we do in France - never any egg cups in Gites ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lesley Posted May 5, 2005 Share Posted May 5, 2005 OK - WHO STARTED THIS??? I spent all last evening with the kitchen timer in hand, bidding on egg-cups! Guess what I'm going to be doing tonight? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laura007 Posted May 5, 2005 Author Share Posted May 5, 2005 sorry it was me!! did you get some nice ones? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lesley Posted May 5, 2005 Share Posted May 5, 2005 Thank you, yes I did - but I didn't need any I won tonights as well - a set of five 1950's/60's plastic ones for 99p and a Rare, Vintage Royal Doulton double ended egg-cup for rather more There is another, set of four, coming up tomorrow morning! There are some mixed sets of 21 and 15 egg cups for anyone else who is desperate! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Louise Posted May 6, 2005 Share Posted May 6, 2005 Good job I don't have access to ebay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lesley Posted May 6, 2005 Share Posted May 6, 2005 I've got those four as well now - I'll need a new kitchen soon. One more I want to bid on and then that's it! I had never even looked at ebay until someone said there was an Eglu for sale - I didn't even know how to use ebay Just look what keeping chickens has done for me - I spend far too much time on forums/fora, my house is a mess and it's now full of egg cups I don't need Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trish Posted May 6, 2005 Share Posted May 6, 2005 Good old ebay, everything you never knew you needed and now have to live with. A good friend of mine is now making about £15 a day selling on ebay, selling, I never thought of that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
