Hi Wendy, If you think cooking's bad, try watching some of those old American Westerns that have been edited for export into European Union countries. EU ministers now require that we convert all English units of measure into officially approved SI (metric) units. Not quite sure what to make of it when the new sheriff rides into town wearing a 37.85-liter hat. Or when the bad guys warn him to get out of town by 20:00 GMT.
