CRACKED IT Eggs are back


Egg sales at


30-year high


EGG sales have soared to
a 30-year high, with 6.5 bil-
lion sold in a year to June.
More meat-free eating
has helped the 4% increase.
But the biggest factor
was new Food Standards
Agency advice in 2016
saying eggs are safe, hard
or runny, for everyone,
after salmonella scares.
Andrew Joret, of the
British Egg Industry
Council, told trade journal
The Grocer: “Eggs are
healthy, versatile, easy to
cook and cost-effective.”


EVEREST Hillary & Norgay


Signs of the


times for sale


AN autograph collection
including the signatures of
all 12 astronauts who have
set foot on the moon is
being auctioned.
Sir Edmund Hillary and
Tenzing Norgay, Laurence
Olivier, Agatha Christie
and Colonel Gaddafi also
feature in the hoard by a
mystery 1970s enthusiast.
The lot is valued at
£3,000 in next month’s sale
by Charterhouse, Dorset.
Auctioneer Richard
Bromell said: “I’ve never
seen anything like this.”


Trust, they said: “Our beautiful girl died
in complex circumstances and we are
hoping that soon we will have more
answers to our many questions.”
Meabh and Sebastien, of Balham,
South-West London, yesterday met with
Malaysia’s Deputy Prime Minister Dr
Wan Azizah Wan Ismail. Nora’s body
was found in a jungle ravine on Tuesday,
10 days after she went missing in
Seremban, 40 miles from
Kuala Lumpur. She was on
holiday with her parents
and siblings, Innes, 12,
and Maurice, eight.
Nora has holoprosen-
cephaly, a debilitating
brain condition, and her
family say she would not
have wandered off alone.
Yesterday, Jim Gamble,
ex-chief executive of the
Child Exploitation and Online Protec-
tion Centre, revealed that the window of
the cottage Nora vanished from was
damaged. Mr Gamble said: “The window
was broken, so it couldn’t have been
locked by the family and could have
been opened from outside.”

TRAGIC
DEATH
Nora Quoirin
disappeared
in Malaysia

Parents may ask for new postmortem


RECOVERY Nora’s body removed from scene

NORA Quoirin’s parents were last
night considering asking for a
second postmortem on her body.
Meabh, 45, and Sebastien, 47, want to
be sure pathologists have not missed any
evidence about the 15-year-old’s death
in Malaysia. They may ask for the
autopsy to be held in Britain,
or France, where her father
is from and where a police
investigation is ongoing.
A source told the
Mirror: “They are delib-
erating. They need to
decide whether they
would ask for it to be done
in Malaysia or elsewhere.”
If something criminal
were found, the source
said: “The problem with doing it away
from Malaysia is that admissibility of the
evidence could be an issue.”
They are waiting for DNA, stem cell
and toxicology reports before deciding.
Nora’s family think she was abducted,
despite an autopsy showing she died of
starvation. In a statement issued on
their behalf by the Lucie Blackman
