Халявщик - Lucky Beggar

I have always been very fond of eggs. As my house mates can testify, last year I would always add a couple of eggs into every meal, adding that extra bit of flare. However I had never before received the holiest of holies - a double yolked egg.


That is until Russia. I have recently just opened four double yolked eggs in a row. Big deal you think? Well the odds of getting one are around 0.01%. Therefore using some cool maths, the probability of me getting 4 in a row is 0.00000001 or 1 in 10 million.

It is so rare that the daily mail released a news article when a woman got 6 in a row.


However since this is Russia, eggs come in boxes of 10 and I can tell you that the other eggs are monsters. I can't wait to have my daily of consumption of eggs tomorrow.

This extraordinary bit of luck paired with me finding a £100 note on the floor on a night out suggests that Russia is on my side.
