**FOODCOUNT 31/1 v MAN CITY - MORRISONS 500g GNOCCHI**
Posted: Tue Jan 30, 2024 7:10 am
by tarkys_ears
Hi all, sorry it's a bit late. I did promise by Monday but by the time I'd have got round to it last night you'd have all been in bed.
Anyway without further ado, presenting to you a bag of Morrisons
Italian Gnocchi
Not a lot to do here except guess the correct number of pieces of chewy mashy goodness. I'll be awarding 5 points to the winner, 10 if the guess is bang on.
The count will close tomorrow night around 6.30 - I'll give fair warning before hand.
Again, apologies for lateness and good luck!
UTC!

Do you think y’alls recipes will work with this bag of gluten-free cauliflower gnocchi that’s been in my freezer a year or do you think it’ll fall apart?

If it does, you could always call it "bubble and squeak"

Trying to figure out whether 31/1 refers to today's date, our odds of winning tonight, or the aggregate score of our last five matches at the Etihad
Not sure of the rules of the food count but whilst I'm here I'll throw in a guess of 60 gnocchi.

Having trouble uploading an image as - file too big for it so you'll have to take my word for it...
The actual number of d vicious potato balls was 84!
Closest guesser was claretblue who came in at the final knockings with 87 and takes all 5 points.
Congratulations and thanks to all who participated
Now for 3 PTS tonight....

claretblue is now on 31 points and in sole 10th place (previously joint 10th) causing everybody on less than 31 points to slip down a place.
I’m just glad I’m not doing dry January as I feel a few glasses of anaesthetic may be required during the football game. Still, Up The Mighty Clarets, come what may.
