Re: Asda Rhubarb in light syrup, 540g
Well, having caught up on all the overnight posts, it's good to see Ralphie learning what happens when you choose an unusual Commodity.
Sticks or chunks? Fruit or veg? 83, 34, 35 or 9ml?
No wonder Spot's having to help him!
But we'll get there in the end, I'm sure. UTC!!

Morning fellow counters.
Spot is out in the garden chasing his tail, the sun is shining and someone has cleared up all the snow. In fact, all is right with the World.
The Rhubarb Triangle? 'Appen just as well I didn't go for the huge tin of avocados, we'd have all been embroiled in the "Avocado Pentacle" and other Wiccan artefacts
Cloudy in Devon? Not wishing to make you jealous but it's cracking the flags here
Thank you Admiral for checking on the progress of today's Count. Appreciated.
9 hours to go... Come On Down !

Ralphie - Should I post the present leaderboard so that you can copy it and make tonight's amendments yourself, or would you like me to take care of that once you've posted the Count Result?

Yes, and Yes. I believe it would be more far more accurate if you took control of the leaderboard and points allocation. Thank you.

Here for all of us anyway is the present situation, with Ralphie himself at the top. Meanwhile we should remember that those seemingly at the bottom with 1.5 points each are in joint sixteenth place, whilst it is the remainder of us, without so much as a half-point between us, who share last position.
But let's see what happens later on!

Re: Asda Rhubarb in light syrup, 540g
Result now in
There were 34 pieces of Rhubarb in 333 mls Jus
Eloise Laws was bang on with an estimate of 34 pieces of Rhubarb
Claretdavid estimated 296mls jus and is the nearest to the whopping amount of light syrup.
Photographic evidence
Well done to all our counters. Here's to another memorable night at t'Turf versus the mighty Reds of Manchester

Fantastic effort RCC
Iβm not at all miffed that there was no clarification as to whether they were sticks or pieces. Although had I known my estimate would have roughly tripled from 12 to about 34ish
