48 club tinplate chapter australia

Most gorgeous @Will however technically we would have to add Charter Member to each of our signs as well

If this keeps up our signatures wil be bigger than the layouts our club is famous for !

Aussies drive on the left too , as do most of the "colonies" and after all this time in metric I still look at something and describe it as "20 foot away" while being completely at home with a tape measure in both feet and millimeters

People are still "6 feet tall" and TV's are still 40" etc lol We are truly a Bi-dimensional people !

But then the Americans metricated currency wayyyy early on ... and then you stopped !

Surely after figuring out 100 cents go into a dollar , metrics would be the next logical step I mean you got the dollar sorted out in 1792 and are feet and inching today still

Australia Ditched Pounds Schillings and Pence only in 1966 and went full metric just 6 years later ... even wiping out stoopid farenheit with its 212 degree boiling point and a freezing point that was for some reason "30"  ... 0 and 100 .. much nicer   also with Australia being so bloody hot 120F just sounds too hot 48C is much more livable ... and .. well 48!   ( which also happens to be the hottest recorded temp where I live to date )
