My mum....
Would make boiled egg sandwiches to take with us to Southport on the train, back in the fifties. A bottle of cold tea would be the accompaniment. She would boil the eggs early in the morning and shell them into a large cup. Add butter and salt and pepper and chop finely. We didn't have much money back then and I remember thoroughly enjoying those sandwiches. I still make them once in a while just as a memory.
The good old days, say lots of folk..I don't know but the memories are fantastic.
Roast beef dinners on a Sunday. Chicken was a luxury....and so I reminisce......

Re: My mum....
You've both got my memory and my taste buds working overtime!
Very partial to egg butties, and I always got egg chopped up in a cup with toast soldiers, if I was a bit offside.
Nothing I enjoy more nowadays than a couple of soft boiled eggs chopped up with plenty butter and pepper, and spread on hot buttered granary toast.![My mum.... 1f60b](https://2img.net/i/fa/twemoji/16x16/1f60b.png)

Re: My mum....
... also... if you are lazy begger like me who cannot be bothered shelling them when they are hot, try these. Thy take a bit longer for a hard boiled egg (15 mins)... but they make life a bit easier.

Just be sure to smear the insides with butter so the egg slides out easily.
