No. Did you know that pi cubed is (almost exactly) 31?

The shape is not a mathematic or scientific symbol/shape; so far one of DRT's guesses is closest.

A castle.

The rude-word filter eliminated my original suggestion.

No

There is nothing rude about the correct answer. RAYC and DRT and now arguably equal best-guessers.

There is no name associated with the answer; otherwise two guesses from RAYC and one from DRT are in the right area.

Considering that "a dog" could be anywhere from 3 lbs to 180 lbs, that's not much of a hint.

Great cake!

Home-made by Mrs W?

RAYC · Post by **RAYC** » 22:06 Thu 07 Nov 2013

Right...

After a tough day at work, i had a slight thirst last night and - despite having just started yet another health drive - cracked open a bottle of port.

Somewhat displeased with the result of that first bottle, I opened a different bottle of the same port. One had a white paper IVDP selo and one didn't (and never had). I am almost 100% certain that both ports were shipped within 5 years of harvest.

What port did i drink?

LGTrotter · Post by **LGTrotter** » 22:23 Thu 07 Nov 2013

I looked at the cake and went 'Ahhh'. What a lovely thing.

2004 Croft LBV.

Nope, albeit one of the three variables is correct.

Further clues will be given for well-reasoned guesses.

How about being a bit drunk and guessing anyway.

My inner port tells me the LBV bit is right but it's not my turn. If I had to come up with a reason I would think it was the selo but I'm not sure why.
