I’m glad to see the American colonies are still honoring the Queen. Long may she live! Now, how many miles to the booze hole?
The European Commission confirmed its decision to allow Britain and Ireland to keep some of their old imperial measurements so pubs can still serve pints and road signs will show miles instead of kilometres.
Britain and Ireland, like almost all countries around the world, officially use the metric system, but imperial measures are often still used alongside metric counterparts.
Under the EU decision, they can maintain miles on road signs and pubs may continue to serve draft beer and cider in pint mugs.
Pint-sized milk bottles will also be retained, along with the Troy ounce for weighing precious metals.
