This time, presenting the nations favourite tooth rot - a 175g Share size (yeah, right!) bag of Haribo Starmix.



According to the internet, inside there are "Bears, Rings, Fried Eggs, Heart Throbs and Cola Bottles."

5 points will be awarded for the correct number for each type and 5 for the total - your total doesn't have to add up to whatever you guessed individually.


Please keep in this order for ease ;

Bears:
Rings:
Fried eggs:
Hearts:
Cola bottles:

Count will close on the 1st around 6pm. I'll give an hours notice.

This time, presenting the nations favourite tooth rot - a 175g Share size (yeah, right!) bag of Haribo Starmix.

I invented ‘Starmix’.

It was an existing Haribo product selling £300,000 a year. I drew up a list of 50 names and then selected my top 10. The name was registed and sales became £25million each year. That was 30 years ago.

One of the things that saddens me is how many empty packs you see discarded in the countryside and towns.

Same with any junk these days.

I notice you don't see much quinoa and pumpkin seed sandwich wrappers from pret around on the floor. My nearest maccys is about 7 miles away but I still find **** from there in town and every country land when I'm out riding my bike!

Intriguing count, thank you. Why can’t you get Haribo crocodiles in this country, loved chomping on those in, I want to say, Italy. But back to the main business and the Fleetwood banana skin.

Right, the totals are



Bears: 18
Rings: 7

Cola: 7
Total: 49

I make that to be the winners;

Bears: - Cabbage / Misterg both two away with 16 and 20 respectively
Rings: 7 - steve1956, Bosscat, bigf, cabbage - with correct guesses of 7
Eggs: 7 - mdwat, steve1956, eloise_laws, africlaret ,claretgeorgina - all with correct guesses of 7
Hearts: 10 - green_parrot, figslice, mdwat - all with correct guesses of 7
Cola: 7 - bigf, cricketfield73 - all correct guesses
Total: 49 - figslice, zooniverser - both with correct guesses of 49

I think that means

Cabbage - 10
Misterg - 5
Steve1956 - 10
bosscat - 5
bigf - 10
mdwat - 10
eloise_laws - 5
africlaret - 5

Right, hopefully somebody can update the board. Now I'm off for a beer and some Haribo - I'm absolutely knackered. Thanks to all of you for playing!

3-0 win to Burnley tonight!

UTC

Will sort it tomorrow T_E great count buddy

Quite impressed with the guessing. Not only was someone spot on with (nearly) all the things, really impressed that fig and zooniverser guessed the total bang on.

Seems a bit of a point-happy one this week but I quite enjoyed doing it - more fun than counting 500 odd black beans.

How much juice?

Great count tarkys_ears, and an interesting choice.
Hope you enjoy the contents of the bag during the game
UTC

Great count Tarky

Tarky did a different one with Haribo ... So think I will be following in a similar vein later ...

Will update the table and post it on this one and the next thread ... It will be another multipoint scoring count, so keep yer eyes peeled

I hope your scores are correct ...

No doubt will correct me if wrong

Bosscat

Please check the table. I thought I had an extra 10 points from last night?
Eloise laws and drawling claret are running away with this and it’s hard enough keeping up as it is.
Thanks

Its hard when there are 8 or 9 scorers but I have awarded myself a yellow card for missing a 10 pointer (even had it written down)
