Gibbo. What difference does it make if they use centimetres or any other unit of measurement? The sheet is too big to fit, regardless of unit used. But yes. My computer club has a DOTW (Richard Cranium of the Week) competition, but due to sheer number of entries, we have to limit ourselves to Australian nominees. 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

A degree of which is necessary because no-one would be able to do anything if everyone always had to check absolutely everything everyone else did.

My computer club has a DOTW (Richard Cranium of the Week) competition, but due to sheer number of entries, we have to limit ourselves to Australian nominees. I think Gibbo was pointing out the Americanism of spelling (centi)meter with 'er' at the end instead of the correct centimetre. A metre is a unit of length. A meter is device used to measure things. A centimeter would be one hundredth of a device; so about one transistor.... 3 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you thinking of "Nosey Parkers"? IIRC, it might have been a spin-off from Thunderbirds. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

In some episodes of Thunderbirds, Parker is indeed referred to as 'Nosey' (usually by past acquaintances from his previous life as a safecracker). 2 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
