Food count Good Friday Watford (a) mini mix

An Easter themed count for our match on Good Friday, although the featured match report is from November 2007. I would definitely take a 2-1 victory on Friday.

I would like to know how many of each type of mini egg is in my bag, and how many mini eggs there are in total. Please present your guesses in the following order :-

Dairy Milk eggs -
Cadburys Crème eggs -
White eggs-
Daim eggs -
TOTAL eggs -

As usual there will be 10 points in each case for an exact guess or 5 points for nearest if nobody guesses exactly. The total does not need to match the sum of all the individual components so I will not be checking your arithmetic.

The count will close at 1pm on Friday with the results published shortly thereafter. The contents of the bag will then be consumed in short order so a recount will not be possible. Good luck everybody and let's hope we can emulate or better our result from that November night in 2007. Respect to anybody who was there, I know I wasn't as I haven't been to Watford since the Quarter Final in 2003.

Come on You Clarets let's get some more points in the bag.

Another tough one. A see through bag would have been most helpful 🤔

I reckon

Dairy Milk eggs - 6
Cadburys Crème eggs - 6
White eggs-5
Daim eggs - 5
TOTAL eggs - 22

Keep on the nest, hopefully they'll all hatch. Or melt

A little disappointed after seeing the title and expecting contestants to guess the content of a sausage mini mix.

I like using one of these for a Mini mix ... much easier than doing it by hand 😉
