Celebrations 650g tub.
For your consideration and delectation the most appropriately named confectionery available at Asda (possibly along with Heroes). 8 different chocolates with 5 points available for each for an accurate (or nearest) guess. Plus a massive 10 points available for accurately guessing the sum total exactly, or 5 points for nearest guess. So a possible 50 points available altogether which gives some other counters a (slim) chance of joining yours truly on 100+ points. Which is where we all want the Clarets to be by Monday evening.
Please order your guesses as follows:-
Snickers (Marathon) -
Twix (extortionately priced) -
Mars (life on) -
Maltesers -
Milky Way -
Bounty -
Galaxy -
Galaxy Caramel -
Total -
The total guess does not need to match the sum of the rest so I will not check that it does.
Happy Guesstimating.
Celebration time - come on (it’s a celebration)

Plenty of points scored including a perfect clean sweep by Cabbage for a massive fifty points. AfloatinClaret also had a clean sweep but missed out on a perfect score by incorrectly guessing (or miscalculating) the total.
Please can everybody check that I have allocated points correctly in the far right column.
BC are you ok to update the leaderboard for the final time this season, please.
Thank you everybody for taking part in the final count of what has been a truly memorable season.
I’m off for a pre match pint.
Here’s to breaking the 100 point barrier this afternoon.
Come On You Clarets.

Superb count Claretmisterg, some great guess and points won. We’ve had a great season on the pitch, and done well with the food counts this season too. Hope it all continues come August
