Realising my son's school shoes are actually wearing out for the second time ever. So we measured his feet to buy some online.
The uk shoe size system turns out to be the most bonkers measuring system (with a connection to the real world) that I've ever seen.
For starters I've never encountered the barley corn as a unit of measure before.
