LOve it...this is what i suppose,the rest of the EU will miss the least...
Whitworth threads,smoothbore guages,screw sizes,furlongs,fathoms and farthings.

I tried my best to explain £ s d,to a group of youngsters,a few weeks ago,and i think it broke them

It's too confusing moving away from inch and a half 8s - had a long conversation with someone about the sizes once but decided to save the brain cells for something else!

6's 8's or 10's for red plugs.

1 1/2 x 8 and 2 x 10 are a couple of good sizes to always have handy

Inch and half 10s.
With a 5.5 bit lovely and snug. Might snap in stone so be careful

Na he wil be fine . The young'uns take the mick out of me for imperial use. I just ask them how tall they are , or how much they weigh.

Do you order 109.42 yards of cable?

 

[ruston]

How did you know that?

It's awhile since I ordered a pint though.

No , I meant how did you know I ordered it by the yard.
I already know you are clever.

Doesn't it depend on what you want to screw to the wall and how thick it it?
