Metric versus imperial: Reg readers weigh in

Pint

What's the problem with Brits welcoming signs in euro-kph. All cars have kph on the speedometer, if distances wre changed to km and limits to kph - where is the issue.

Biggest problem is people mixing up Metric and S.I.

A pint because it might not be a pint for long.

Other delivery services.

So I put up a RM sign saying I don't trust my neighbour but the rest of the delivery companies ignore this sign (because they are not RM) and deliver to the psychonutterbastard anyway. Can't see any problems there!

Re: 800,000 miles from the sun?

It is very close indeed, considering Mercury barely gets with 30 million miles at its closest, but Lovejoy actually passed through the Sun's corona last year - approaching with 88,000 miles. Now that's toasty.

Look up, Look down

Pictures look fake to me. In the second pictures (ass shot) she is looking down in the foreground but the position of her phone in the background reflection suggests she should be looking up.

What's an inch.

Apparently an inch is about 8cm.

Paris, obviously, because she'd always spot if a couple of inches were missing.

Saves us the trouble

Olympics will be enough of a mess and a drain on the coffers as it is. We don't need to waste more money, especially on football. By 2018 you won't be able to get within 1.8288 metres of a player without him taking a dive - let alone tackle one of the lazy overpaid fukkers.

Pointless

If the current laws prohibit the scanning of under 18's then it's pointless from a security point of view. Just a waste of money.
