"...england where everything is in metric..." - This message is
obvoiusly 
talking
about some strange parallel version of the UK :-)

We're only offically metric, and then only just.
( schools: metric,
   pre-packed food: metric [but only after a fight],
   fresh food: imperial,
   road signs: imperial
   petrol: metric )

I think we're waiting for the people who like the imperial system to die
out...
