Well it's not a site based in the UK so surely we should have a converter into a more universal mesurement like KG, Meters...etc..

ummmm, google?

just type "<whatever>miles in km" and itll convert it for you (put a number instead of <whatever> obviously), works with everything, dimensions, weights, volumes, currency etc.

bear in mind tho google is american so put "uk" or "us" in front of volumes cos yanks pints are smaller than ours :roll:

ounces are weight/mass measurements - not liquid volumes! :roll:

It's both.

Welcome to America! The land of really sucky measurements!

Except I've gotta say that "stone" is a pretty strange measurement.
