No it doesn't. However, I will give you another clue. You can eat both V and C, and they are not contained in a hamper in this case.


V and C make a very nice P

Many, many moons ago an ill-advised attempt at making Magdalen V produced a dish so rich it was virtually inedible, put ne off V for the rest of my life. Yes, I know the answer but I'm hoping someone else will come forward as I'm a bit short of ideas for questions.

Those colleges have amassed wines worth many thousands, I am sure that marinating V in 30 year old port brought it ALMOST up to the standard found in LPS

Surely someone besides Charles knows where you find the best Ps in the highlands?

Hah... Gawd, only just clicked.

Pies By Post!

Lochinver Pie Shop it is!

Loved the cauliflower one. Dragged it to the top of Suilven a while back.

I was initially looking at the Lothian Paranormal Society! Sheesh.

Just loved the Lothian Paranormal Society, I suppose they deal in Visions and Creepiecrawlies. Yes, it is the Lochinver Pie Shop and the Venison and Cranberry is one of the most popular.

Haha, thanks Sgurr.

I'll stick with the culinary theme then....

The AR is colloquially known as a B or R.

Aye, that's the one Tinto.

Aberdeen Roll, also a Buttery or Rowie.

Very nice indeed. Although you can only eat one every decade or so!

Not there, Sgurr, looks like you are clutching at straws on this one. Time for a clue, the sporting event is the opposite of football....

Well, I've thought it was the Ba Game, but can't figure the AVG bit. Maybe someone else can take it from here.
