Yesterday I went for a drive through the Cotswolds. We stopped in Chipping Camden, a magnet for tourists, full of little cottages and narrow streets, and the sort of place you don't expect to find many Labour voters. Yet a quick visit to a couple of high-street 'mini-markets' showed all loose produce showing prices 'per kg' - ONLY. Not a lb anywhere! Chris -- UK Metric Association: http://www.metric.org.uk/
