@stevep7950 ... Not totally we didn't. I was in secondary school in 73 and we were still using inches and yards, they also ran alongside metric, as did currency for a while. We do still use yards and inches for things though, and miles are our length of travelling, thankfully.
But HS2= Hundreds of Billions - as are greater “ defence “ spending costs 😕 “ Tens of millions “ re overspend on by passes ? That’s the amount of taxpayers money probably being evaporated every week on HS2 ......

Load of crap, I live 5 mins from here and it's a total nightmare they always close the dam thing for no reason.
Not only that the entire time it was being dug we all had to deal with the most God awful vibrating noise at night it was so annoying.
