As you've brought a bit of new information to the table I thought I'd better respond. Michael Carter has told you the figure but in confidence which matters not as you've already said that you wouldn't tell me anyway (very adult response) or the band of helpers that you mistakenly believe I have to help me write these posts. My guess is between 2300 and 2400 and the figure MC gave you will be around that, which brings me to you 'overestimated by a small amount statistically in my book of sums 1700 isn't that small nor is 1300 which comes from your 4000 and 3500 guesses doh and yes both guesses were way out. Not points scoring just challenging incorrect information.

God no, but even less so Labour

I inflict my opinions on here for fun, I play devils advocate to create a debate and challenge perceived ideas, not that some seem to get that! I only rarely do so in the real world about things that really matter and then in a far more considered manner.

I know what I think and believe but have never felt the need to convert others.

I'm very much of the Adam Smith style, free-thinking and self-responsible, I don't want or need to be told how to think and I have no wish to do the same to others.

To me, politics is just about a necessary evil as I accept that far too many people either don't or can't think for themselves. You can add religion to that.

Then ask him.

I have a slightly open door to MC/JM and I mean slightly due to a couple of projects I've done, I'm one of those annoying fans who puts his money where his mouth is. Why should I share that with you? Someone who just snipes?

You seem very sure about your figures, not sure why.

Finally, even if I were that wrong why would it matter? I said it was a guess from the start, the word guess should be the clue, if I'd have stated it as a fact then you'd have a point. So it's VERY much is points scoring on your part because by definition a guess isn't information is it. Not as smart as you think you are aye Rick.

'My guess wasn't way out, by the way, I overestimated by a small amount statistically' your words and now my comments 1700 and 1300 a small maybe not such a small amount. against about a figure of 2300/2400

God, you’re a bore. If you think there were only 2400 in that ground you're wrong.

Apart from what I’m told I took the bother using Trinity TV to actually count them.
I may be a few dozen out and I didn’t include the boxes but I’m closer than you.

I get approx 2,800, probably add another 100 in the boxes and visiting the bogs and I\d say 2,900.

That puts it somewhere between my lowest guess, remember the word guess and yours.

Try it, doesn’t take long, HD is a wonderful tool.

When I watched it there was a big bloke sat in front of me right in the camera line so wouldn't have been able to see me.
So actually 2,901 is probably more accurate......



I'll get my coat........ Sorry.
