Bloody hell, you must be ancient surely no-one under 60 still thinks in ounces unless you're using one of Mrs Beatons cookery books. You must be continually trying to convert one to the other. I have no understanding of fahrenheit, celsius just makes sense. Have you switched to decimal currency yet or are you still counting 12 pennies to a shilling and 20 shillings to a pound (of money, not weight!)?
Yep same age as you mate 4yrs to pension,15 st 5lbs not sure how many ounces and don't know what that is in kilo's and don't care,as for temp I know 65f is pleasant and 75f is lovely and 85f is heaven and rare....but I must be a new age guy cos I get on great with decimal currency
we are all used to various forms of measurements + the answers to convert are just a few keystrokes away, thankfully! on that same not many usually youngers use slang aka short cuts that many myself included need to look up! it is what is!!
My phone, laptop and the TV only show temperature in that new fangled centigrade. I guess you must use your own thermometer or piece of seaweed
Just to add another to this thread, as I also want to get to the tubeless wheels. Central Wheel Components in Colehill, Birmingham, offer this service. They are an agent for an Italian company (BART) who do such conversions. It could be they use their own system as well. They quote £120/wheel with a 2-3 week turnaround. You need to strip everything from the wheel, tyres, brakes, bearings etc. I may take a trip down there as they say you can see wheels being done.
