Chat Room

Dear O'H dear, Lovely Tea Jenny and The Mini Princesses,

Yesterday I bought some eggs from the garage. The woman serving me opened the box (to check that none were broken).

“Those are nice looking eggs.”

“Mmm,” I replied, a little unsure how to react.

“The ones with the white shells have the best yolks. I love a boiled egg and soldiers.”

I entered the (small) chat.

“Well, I might just have that for my breakfast tomorrow,” I said cheerily.

I was then given advice on exactly how runny the yolk should be before the transaction concluded and I left the (small) chat.

But this is obviously a matter of great importance. I heard her ask the next customer “Do you like a boiled egg and soldiers?”.

“No”

Which made me properly laugh.
