                  Being Swedish puts you at a disadvantage with this particular clue. If you were British, Australian, Bangladeshi, Indian, Pakistani,South African, Sri Lankan, New Zealander or West Indian you would have a chance of part of the clue.

                      And my own foggy clue makes me think "pitchers" which fits with the wine bit, but nothing in your CCC implies a plural... :(

                            Thte only thing I can think of that in anyway fits the clue is: isinglass but that's 9 letters, and I don't see an Instrument connection.

                              batting: From my limited knowledge of batting games I seem to recall all of them having bases in them.. So I assume you bat from a base position Wine container= flute (the glasses from which you drink champagne, which is a kind of wine) bassflute I know it's 9 letters not 8, but since I presume I won't find the actual solution I thought I came close here ;)

                                      Thanks! I googled "CCC", not even knowing what the acronym stood for, but found nothing that seemed like a hit (Challenging Chess something-or-other of the day clearly wasn't it, hahaha.) Well, now I can get involved. I was feeling so left out. I hate feeling left out. :) Marc
