I have just been reading a discussion in a computer forum about how to remove the shell from a hard boiled egg.
It made me wonder how people in the real world do it.
My method is to simply hold the egg in your hand and give it a good, rolling bash on the bench. Then push the shell off with your thumb. With a bit of practice you can do two at once. One in each hand of course.
