    • Once had a court judge insisting I used imperial feet to describe distances between vehicles just before a car crash...microkorg
    • ... I told him I was never taught inches/feet so couldn't make an estimate in case it was incorrect and was not accurate evidence...microkorg
    • ... me as a cheeky c*nt teenager then suggested that as a Court Judge however that he should know both units or at least be able to convert. ;)microkorg

    • This is a meagre change in the law to simply make it legal to state things in none- metric terms. That's it. Nothing more. Metric's going nowhere in UKNairn
    • Every half-wit ultraEuro or moron is jumping on this like it's some ultimate affirmation of the stupidity of Brexit. Nope, it's just making things a bit freer.Nairn
    • Do I want that extra freedom? Nope. I, like you, couldn't give a shit. Do I think it's improves things? Nope, not for me. Is it the apocalypse? Also, nope.Nairn
    • For the record - we also never tried to metricise time.Nairn
