Fresh [not always tinned] food count - CHELSEA (h) - Sat. 7th October

jdrobbo · Post by **jdrobbo** » Tue Oct 03, 2023 10:32 pm

Fresh out of the Aldi fridge and immediately following a brilliant bean count, which resulted in Bruun Larsen bending in a beauty, we’re opening the next food count immediately…

This time we’ve got plenty to be grapeful for, as we dive headfirst into an unwrapped 500g punnet of Aldi’s Seedless mixed grapes

So quite simply, and I suspect we might get a few on the nose this week…

1) How many green grapes?

2) How many red grapes?

3) TOTAL grapes

5 points for the nearest guess in each grape colour count.
10 points for any that hit the bullseye.

Counting will commence at 12 noon on Saturday, as I will be traveling over from Leeds around that time.

Thanks a bunch, folks.

Let’s hope it’s a really grape count!

Pity no fourth column for amount of juice from Robbo pressing them in the traditional way with his feet
I would have gone 30ml and one toenail

With five counters scoring 10 points the table has changed considerably. Yours truly moves onto 23 points, Croydon Claret onto 22 points and Bosscat onto 21 points taking the top 3 places. addisclaret moves up to joint 4th on 18 points and green_parrott moves up to joint 5th on 16 points. jdrobbo joins green_parrot in joint 6th with 3 points for counting.

Thanks for a fantastic count jdrobbo and the high scoring can only portend good fortune for the Clarets in their football game against the (hopefully) misfiring pensioners.

Up the Mighty Clarets.
