For your consideration I present one 440g jar of Asda sliced beetroot pickled in acetic acid and spirit vinegar. You are invited to estimate the contents of this jar, specifically the number of beetroot slices and quantity of pickling liquid in ml therein. 10 counting points will be awarded for exact guesses in each instance, or failing an exact guess 5 points for the nearest. Deadline for guesses is 1pm on Saturday with drainage and counting commencing shortly thereafter.

Good luck to you all and be assured that your counting efforts will serve to motivate the mighty clarets in the sporting contest against the Prima Donnas of Manchester United who are not as good as they like to think they are.

Up the Mighty Clarets, come what may.

BigF moves up one place into 5th now on 65 points. tarkys_ears also moves up one place to joint 12th now on 45 points. DingleDangle debuts in joint 25th on 5 points. I have foregone the 3 points for counting.

Well done to our three points scorers and also a big thank you to all counters for taking part and motivating the mighty clarets into rescuing a late point by not accepting that they were beet. Amazingly we now have a fair to middling chance of staying up. Who would have thought it ?

Up the Mighty Clarets, come what may.
