For clarity, I'm looking for the number of items, not the weight

Ok closing the entries.

Count to commence. Results won't take too long!

Ok results are in. Very quick and simple.

Total Olives - 25, Chillis 3(easy to count), and one lonesome cheese - even easier to count!

As such our winners today are Dingledangle with closest guess at 23, Zooniverser with closest cheese at 3, and finally dingledagnle and longsider with a guess of 3 chillis. (5 points for each correct guess - no bonuses this week)

So the points are +10 Dingledangle, +5 Longsider, +5 Zooniverser.

Now I'm off to eat my cheeseless olives before the match!
