Not had one of there for years, remember them being the size of a 2p coin, only thicker and tastier.
I'll go for
32 Authentic cakes from Pontefract
4 cakes 19g
Bag 3g
Nicely done by the way, with the little twist on the weighing of the contents

Haribo took over the factory in Pontefract that made the original Pomfrets- I'm glad to see they continued the tradition.

5 counters score a big 10 points which changes the table significantly. BigF moves into 3rd place on 60 points. bfcjg and Longsider move up to Joint 6th on 40 points. green_parrot moves up to joint 7th on 35 points and Jasper64 moves up to joint 8th on 25 points.

3 bonus points puts tarkys_ears in sole 10th place on 19 points and 3 points for counting leaves Bosscat in 13th place but now on 14 points.

Well done to all the points scorers and thanks to Bosscat for a terrific count. Thanks also to all participants in a count which will undoubtedly inspire our beloved Clarets to a long overdue victory in the football contest to come against the wonky (misprint) Welsh.

Up the Mighty Clarets come what may.
