Must've been serious Friday night blurred vision going on there!

Not really.  The first guess is UK.  The second is New Zealand.  I now know that the UK is 85 miles closer to Japan compared to New Zealand.

I once took a flight from New Zealand to Japan.  It took 12 hours.

New Zealand is a long way away.

Aargh how frustrating. First time trying this. Think I'd be better at flags than country shapes but this works better as a puzzle than the flag one.

Narrowed this down to a choice of 3 (helped by Scotland playing all these teams in qualifiers a few years ago) after guess 5 then picked the wrong one! The wee sticky out bit near the bottom (ooh I say!) influenced my first guess.

The distance clues help. If you have a rough idea of clusters of countries. Ie switzerland, austria, germany. It helps narrow it down if you are within a thousand kilometres. The island and central american ones are the ones I usually struggle with.

I was more referring to the idea that the UK and New Zealand looked like Japan, but if you were just hunting for distance clues fair enough.

It's what I did today for one thing...

85 miles is also the distance between the highest point in the 48 contiguous USA states and the lowest point.
