    On Wednesday Norbert boils an egg. He checks the time on his mobile when he drops the egg in the pan and it reads 08.12. He later looks at his phone and the time reads 08.15 so he takes out the egg and it's just right.</p>



    On Thursday he looks at his phone as he drops his egg in the pan and again it reads 08.12. He checks his phone later and sees it reads 08.16 so he removes his egg from the pan but this time it's a bit runny. </p>



    How's that happened?</p>



    (Same kind of egg, pan, water temp, depth and all that.)</p>

    No egg is ever the same

    The 3 minute rule is only a guide.</p>

    Also there are bad eggs knocking about.</p>

    Norbert may have moved to a higher altitude on Thursday

    Eggs take longer to boil at altitude.

    It's what DJ Fatty boy said. Norbert's afraid of heights.
