You missed out cwt.
and those of us brought up with this archaic system have no trouble at all converting to metric because we were taught both systems at once. The complaints are from those, like yourself , who struggle with maths as opposed to moving a decimal point.
Also the system we learn becomes embedded over our time as a kid (surprisingly even old people used to be kids).
So I can visualise a mile (better not say furlong) a yard or 70 degrees Fahrenheit but if it's presented in metric I have to do a conversion in my head
Don't worry about us though. Back in the day we were taught mental arithmetic and many of us can add up a column of figures quicker than a calculator, metric or imperial.

It's especially impressive
considering you'd all been on l/s/d for so long.

Try as I might, I just can't convert from Fahrenheit to meters.

I can't do that, either.

The issue wasn't "I struggle with maths"
That's a different answer to a different qotw! But my issue it's with organisations (and I include governments) Who have this as their system of measurement. Why make things harder than they have to be? We don't use shillings etc anymore for that reason.

I always liked a hundred weight
because it is 110 lbs.
Kind of like a baker's dozen.

You've lost 2lb.
Not quite slimmer of the week but well done.
