I spend so much time on Japanese lolita websites and American brand sites and then English clothing sites, I basically know all my measurements in cm and inches, my weight in stones, pounds, kilograms etc.

My gran is used to fahrenheit so I also know that in comparison to degrees celcious. In the UK fahrenheit is mentioned in weather reports, but celcious is dominant.

In England things are measured randomly, like a persons measurements would be in inches, but a room would be measured in cm and meters.

Milk is measured in pints but most other things are measured in litres and mililitres. Some of the road signs have 'Junction X in 1 mile,' others have 'Roadworks in 40 yards.'

So yeah, there is a whole mix of all sorts!
