Food Count. FA Cup Reading Away

[Longsider]

After a great win today spurred on by us food counters I am setting up the FA cup round. Keeping it regular for us counters it's a big bag of prunes.
500g Aldi bag.

The count and points are as follows.
Number of Prunes
Weight of empty bag in grams
The time stamp on the bag when it went through quality control. This is a time between 13:00 and 13:59

10 points each for correct number of prunes, weight and time stamp.
5 points for nearest if no exact answer.

Up The Clarets. NNN

Bump.

Come on you food counters. Let's get this cup run underway

BRILLIANT idea with the time stamp Longsider, it's like trying to guess the first number out of a lottery draw with an extra ball. If I guess it correctly I will be using them as a couple of my numbers for a few week.

Congratulations to our points scorers.
Dawlishclaret continues to steam ahead now over 40 points clear in first place on 184 points, surely only a matter of time before the 200 point barrier is smashed.
5 points sees BigF increase his tally to 143 points, now in joint 2nd, and Croydon Claret move up to 8th place now on 97 points.
Thanks again to Longsider for an excellent count, here’s hoping you do another 5 cup counts to see us all the way to Wembley.
Thanks to all you counters. With the combination of this count and the return of Ash the Bash the mighty clarets will surely be hyper motivated and absolutely roger the Royals.
Up the Mighty Clarets, come what may.
