Js,

Don't worry about the metric, the EU has finally seen sense in this matter in respect of getting the U.K. to change...they have now scrapped the idea so us oldies in the UK used to working in feet, inches, ounces and pounds are safe to carry on. The simplest reason for that was the Biggest country in the world still uses those measurements and will not change for anyone...Yes the good Old U.S.

I grew up with feet and inches and thats all I know - I can give you damn good measurements from eyesight with those alone....forget millimetres,centimetres, metres etc coz I haven't got a clue.

Nice to see common sense has prevailed although the younger generation are getting a bit of a shock now.

Regards.....Mark.
