I hereby offer up an old favourite to the counting gods and would like to invite you all to guess how many whole kidney beans are contained within my tin. Partial beans will be discounted. I would also encourage you to guess the amount of bean jooooooooose the said beans are contained within. 10 points will be awarded to anybody guessing the correct amount in each instance, otherwise 5 points will be awarded for the nearest guess/es. Deadline for guesses is 6pm Thursday and the results will be posted shortly thereafter.
Come on you counters and let’s inspire the mighty clarets to a much needed victory over the Baggies. Up the Mighty Clarets, come what

Okies ...

280 Renal Beanz
95 mls of Beany Gloop

Hi what_no_pies have you got a guess for the juice before the deadline ? Otherwise will default to zero (could still win the points).

Hi what_no_pies have you got a guess for the joooose ?

in case what_no_pies doesn't offer a joose guess in time...I think it would be good to enter the average of the previous 10 guesses as his entry!

That would be 123 (as Ted Rogers used to say! )

Thanks misterg!

156 red kidney beans
156ml joooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooose

actually (for accuracy) Ted Rogers used to say 321 - but that would be far too many beans!
