After dx's comments on mixed measures..... Am I alone is tending to use mm for small measurements and feet and miles for longer distances?
And have you noticed how we tend to use centigrade for low temps and fahrenheit for high temps? "Ooo, it's minus 5 degrees" or "It's going to be in the 80's tomorrow" :lol:

mm then inches, then feet, then meters, then miles.
Pint, Litres then gallons,
Grams, stone, then tonnes
It seems to be metric then imperial then metric and so on...
Just my tuppence ;)
V8MoneyPit:
Ah, but is it tonnes or tons? :lol:
But it's true, isn't it? We all tend to use different scales for different circumstances! I guess it will gradually all head over to metric in the next couple of generations. Except in the US, of course! And they have a different pint and gallon to us just to confuse people even more!
