  1. Well I approve of accuracy and am heartened that at last certain authorities in this country are embracing the metric measurement ..... at last anyone under 40 + visitors from abroad will understand the information provided.OK a few old f***t's might be confused ...... but then I suspect that has nothing to do with the unit of measurement. :clap

    Well then why don't they go the whole hog and use a sensible number, like 400 0r 500?

    Not confused Old fart of Gt Hockham two gunstwo gunstwo guns

  2. My point was "Why such useless numbers?" :norty::norty::norty:

    500 yards I can equate to but 457m leaves me cold! :naughty::naughty::naughty:

    (Unless, as I did, I get my calculator out and work out just what they mean!).

    "Beaurocratic Nonsense" comes to mind................. :cry:cry:cry

  3. We came past St Benet's yesterday and saw this sign...............

    457m.... whatever distance is that??? two gunstwo gunstwo guns

    The last time I noticed ALL road signs in England were in YARDS... 500 would do! :naughty::naughty::naughty:

    And as we're afloat even 2.5 cables would suffice!

  4. cheersbar:clapice slice Well... come wind, rain or (occasionally!) shine... you guys and girls can party!

    Really heartfelt thanks to Barry and Olive for their sterling efforts to make it a success! :clap:clap:clap

    Without Barry's marquee ( or "tent" as he insisted on calling it) we wouldn't have had half such a good time! :bow:bow:bow

    Yesterday morning was bright and sunny; Dan, John and James helped Barry erect his "tent"!
