Guest Posted November 27, 2007 Share Posted November 27, 2007 my sister and BF and me and DH are all buying each other the silliest egg cups we can find. As my sister's OH is affiliated with the flight industry, I thought I might buy him one of those aeroplane shaped ones but then again, we did say silly eggs cups. I've googled and e-bayed and just not found anything I like! We need at least 2 egg cups and they have to cost no more than a tenner. The sillier the better but nothing too ugly. Anyone fancy suggesting anything, posting links etc? any help would be appreciated would you believe, we don't have any egg cups in this house!? neither do they, which gave us the idea. I'm having a chucky egg (or 2) in my new egg cup, with soldiers, on boxing day, really looking forward to it p.s. i've seen all the egg cups in the omlet shop and they're really nice but any other suggestions?

Cinnamon Posted November 27, 2007 Share Posted November 27, 2007 http://eggcups.blogspot.com/2006/09/koala-egg-cups.html And these are just great too. I bought one at Easter which was hot pink metal with big chicken feet on,& all painted in bright spots of colour. Also a new shop has opened in Reading called Octopus, & they do loads of patterned ones - cow print,zebra etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Louise Posted November 27, 2007 Share Posted November 27, 2007 Surely the omlet inflatable ones HAVE to be the silliest I mean really who would eat an egg in the bath Glass of wine, box of chocolates but a boiled egg Daft as a bucket of frogs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've bought one for OH for christmas as we've only got 3 egg cups and he always ends up not having one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparkleeeeee Posted November 27, 2007 Share Posted November 27, 2007 i love eggs cups, but it is any excuse to go shopping we have some tractor ones which are fab, we also have minis, beetles and morris minors. the kids love them. car boot are great for egg cups. i do have to hide them from OH as he moans if i have bought more. ohhhhh and we have the egg ones with feet like they sell in the omlet shop, they have really cute little spoons with them. we also have some boring normal ones but the kids will not eat boiled eggs if they are in a boring egg cup.

Guest Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 by the way, thanks for all the replies, still haven't spotted just what I want yet I might end up buying a VW Beetle and a plane from the omlet shop but still undecided Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krysia Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 I Love the toilet! I might have to get My brother one of those! HE bought me a toilet lid and rim mirror one year (We always get something daft) You opened the lid to effectively look down the toilet where you found the mirror!
