I've eaten the contents and the packaging in the past and it felt like that I had consumed something in the region of a cricket bat.
The whole lot could be around 2 Pounds 10 Ounces.
Does that help ?

Some 60 years ago these + cheddar cheese were my regular student diet.
Anyway enough reminiscing, I'm going for 38 crackers and 29g for the weight of the box.

Decisions Decisions Will the crackers be packed like biscuits in rows OR packed like crisps in a bag ?
So potentially more broken ones if packed like crisps.
Hoping the box has been carefully looked after I'll go for
36 whole crackers
30g for the empty box
But could be totally wrong if it is a life size Bertie Bee holding the box!

Congratulations to our points scorers.
A big 10 points sees Dawlishclaret increase his lead in 1st place now 16 points clear on 159 points.
5 points each sees Jasper64 still in 7th place now on 105 points, Croydon Claret still in 9th place now on 82 points and yours truly moving up a place to 15th now on 58 points.
3 points for counting puts Eloise Laws on 106 points but remaining in 6th place.
Thanks again to Eloise Laws for an excellent count and to all the counters who took part. I think we have done more than enough to inspire our intrepid clarets to emerge victorious from the football contest to follow.
Up the Mighty Clarets, come what may.
