A "fly-cup"

I have never heard of a "fly-cup"

The Book of Hints and Wrinkles advice on writing a shopping list
​Back to The Book of Hints and Wrinkles Project
After the kitchen has had its morning tidy-up, and thus is not scattered with things in such a way as to confuse or distract your attention, get your shopping pad and settle down at the kitchen table. (A “fly-cup,” as they call it in the north, of tea or coffee is a distinct help at this time).
