No, it's because we think more broadly. We're planning for the month, not the day.

lets face it, when your temperature is taken rectally, does it really matter how its read??


oh yes, because you really don't want someone to screw it up and have to take again hmph!

btw if you get your temp taken rectally, you need to upgrade your doc situation!

You're British now. Spell properly, write your dates the right way round, the metric system and never visit the dentist again.

I have already been to the dentist a few times since I have been here. That damn advice came a bit too late.
I do spell properly but funny thing is a certain orger (she shall remain nameless but here is a hint, she has blonde hair and spells as bad as Imago wink)
saw one of my facebook statuses where I was using the word "mourning", as in mourning the death of someone, and she accused me of spelling British already and thought I was trying to say "morning", as in Good Morning.


Oh my....

Wouldn't it be easier for international pilots to have a universal measurement for the weather? Or do American Air Traffic Controllers already use Celsius?

All aviation uses celsius

celcius all the way baby!!!

and metric cms/metres is so much easier than inches and feet

when i was at school, if you even talked in inches or feet, youd get lines

and doesnt international sport conform to metric...swimming and track are in metres
