I used to charge £1.25/box and I still do for my original customers. Earlier this year, I increased the price to £1.50/box for new customers. The chap who pays £2.50/box pays extra to "treat the ladies" :rotfl:
At first the different-coloured eggs (and the name of the chook that laid the egg written on the shell) were a selling point but my customers come back now because of the taste. I'm disappointing quite a few people now that egg production has slowed down.Mortgage at highest (April 2008): ~£195,000

How do they do that? It's so clever :T:T:T:T. I bet LRH writes it for all of them, the others look a few worms short of a wormery if you don't mind me saying

I just wanted to say I love that the name of the chook that laid the egg is written on the shell. I'd buy the eggs for that. How clever of the chickens to do this .... or maybe you help out a little :rotfl: Made it to mortgage free but what a muddle that became
In the event the proverbial hits the fan then co-habitees are better stashing their cash than being mortgage free !!0 -

* As only 3 chooks are laying and 2 of today's eggs were from Miss LRH, it appears that Mr MWC didn't have a good rummage under The Girls - yesterday wasn't a no-egg day :rotfl:Mortgage at highest (April 2008): ~£195,000

We made the RC cannellini bean & leek soup with chilli oil for dinner tonight. We tweaked the recipe slightly - there was only 1 can of cannellini beans in the larder so we added the leftover gammon from the weekend and used chopped celery leaves instead of parsley - it was delicious :drool:
