Rules for submitting comments:
1. No profanity. I maintain the pretense that this is a family-friendly site.
2. Stay on topic. A bit of straying and off-hand commenting is okay, but hijacking the discussion is right out.
3. No ad hominem attacks. Attack the subject, not the other person on the thread and keep the discussion civil.
4. No spamming or commercial endorsements. These get deleted immediately.
Tip: Beware of putting hyperlinks in your comments–especially at the end. For some reason, Blogger interprets these as spam.
Note: Due to the recent spate of anonymous spamming, registration for comments is now required.

Thank you. FYI, I am neither pro nor anti imperial measures; it's just that being young, I understand the Metric system much more and so that is my default stance. Still, a victory for the UK, etc etc.
Oh, and I must admit: a Pint sounds better than whatever the metric equivalent.

Forty rods to a hog's head *sniggers*
ReplyDeleteHonestly, the metric system's fine, even if it came about through the French Revolution.
To each his own is my policy; I just hates it when little statists try to ram something down people's throats...legislation, boots, and so on.
