Closest three guesses are 1963, 1962 and 1973.

That should narrow it down a little.

1964 (and I hope it is a Pomerol from a good château)

Posted: **12:17 Mon 05 Jun 2017**

It is 1964. I bought a case of 12 bottles of Bodegas Franco Esplanolas Royal Reserve in 2013 to share with a number of friends who turned 50 the year after I did. Most of the bottles are now drunk, but a couple remain unopened. I also have a single bottle of Latour 1964 that I must get round to opening one day.

Your turn.

What height is the mountain I am looking at now?

Posted: **21:40 Mon 05 Jun 2017**

1,324 metres

Posted: **08:22 Tue 06 Jun 2017**

5500m (I'm guessing you're looking at the moon).

You have to remember where I live. This time of year I can see the mountain 24/7.

Austfjell?

And, you are both in Telemark, well done.

Not there yet, but getting closer. Best so far.

Posted: **18:18 Thu 08 Jun 2017**

If it is below 1000 meters is it really a mountain?

990m?

A molehill or a mountain, same difference. If the name includes "fjell", it's a mountain in Norway. I have heard, however that all things are much bigger in USA.

Best so far.

The "hills" by my house are over 4,000' (~ 13,000 meters). I ride my bike up them. The mountains in the U.K. Are bumps. Hiking in the Highlands wasn't that hard for me and they weren't that tall. It's all relative to what you're used to.

Indeed Andy, but I think you would have difficulty cycling up this one. But then again, maybe not.
However, in Scotland it would qualify as a Munro.

Posted: **20:29 Wed 14 Jun 2017**

4,000' (~ 13,000 meters)
You might be a capable cyclist, but I am not impressed with your math/conversion skills.

Posted: **21:02 Wed 14 Jun 2017**

For the record, it's not my turn. Anyone? Bueller?

Yes darn phone. Should be 1,300. One too many zeros on that

See my reply further back: "But then again, maybe not.

So no cigar.

edit: But you are 2nd best now.

Posted: **17:07 Thu 15 Jun 2017**

Hmm... so 914 < OldBridgeFjell < 990.

Vornut? 962 meters?

A Munro is 1000m+

962 is 2nd so far.

Posted: **21:40 Thu 15 Jun 2017**

A Munro is 3000+ ft (914 meters) according to Wikipedia.

Not my turn.

Posted: **22:12 Thu 15 Jun 2017**

My fault Glenn. You are correct. However there are also metric Munros, that rise above the 1000m mark.
OldBridgeFjell is qualified as a METRIC Munro.

Who do we write to in Norway in order to petition for an official name change?

Still not my turn.

Posted: **00:16 Sat 17 Jun 2017**

And just for the record:

990 < OldBridgeFjell < 1191
962 is closer than 1191
