Hi Rachie Pin-Up

It works any day of the year, you just have to be patient........here's the trick.......hold the egg upright and swirl it round a bit. It helps to move the yolk. As it warms a little the yolk will drop to the bottom of the egg and act as a counterweight. Eventually it will stand upright. Use a curved egg rather than one with a pointed end........have a go......it's fun Happy
