Omlet Staff hanns Posted October 7, 2008 Omlet Staff Share Posted October 7, 2008 Hi Guys, hope you like the latest newsletter, I just wanted to say it would be great if you could send in any old egg cups you have - the stranger the better - to get the egg cup museum off the ground. Does anyone have any that they can send? Johannes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnnieP Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 What a great idea! Can't wait to see them. I have a very old Noddy one, but I couldn't bear to part with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tina C Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 Oh what a shame - my auntie had an egg cup collection - but now gone I'm afraid. We also love our egg cups too much (especially the VW camper and the dalek) to let them go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 Lovely idea, but I have a mini collection and couldn't bear to part with them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egg Lou Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 We have a fair size collection from over the ages.. I see if we can part with some although I'm not sure about the really old ones.. will see what I can do! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Omlet Staff hanns Posted October 7, 2008 Author Omlet Staff Share Posted October 7, 2008 Now look, I really think that we ought to approach this in the spirit of joining all the egg cups into one enormous collection. Individually they are good but together we can make them great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clootie Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 Yep, I might have one or two I can let you have. PS wish you'd reply to emails sent to you mister !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

craftyhunnypie Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 think I have a few you can have! I used to have an eggs on legs one - now I wonder what hapened to that? Emma.x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cate in NZ Posted October 8, 2008 Share Posted October 8, 2008 Can't send you any old ones I'm afraid, all the ones that I own are relatively new and in frequent use, I had a major clear out of old, mis-matched or damaged crockery, including egg cups , before we moved. But if you'd like an egg cup from down under to start an overseas collection within your "museum" I can happily oblige Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicola H Posted October 8, 2008 Share Posted October 8, 2008 Mine is on it's way, it came from South Africa and is too large to hold a normal egg maybe it was made to hold an ostrich egg........ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cinnamon Posted October 8, 2008 Share Posted October 8, 2008 Most of mine are from the Omlet shop anyway (but I might ask on Freecycle ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted October 8, 2008 Share Posted October 8, 2008 Just as an amusing aside...... Him Indoors refuses to use the inflatable Omlet egg cup. He calls it the Whoopee Cushion for hens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lewis Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 Just bumping this up wondering if anyone has sent any more egg cups to the museum, or recieved their egg cups? I sent an egg cup from Spain a few weeks ago, so I'm hoping to get on Omlet one soon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
