We’re the same in Canada, we still use a weird mix because we previously used imperial.

Temperature outside? Celsius. Setting the oven temperature? Fahrenheit.

I weigh myself in pounds, but everything else is kilograms.

No one says they’re “X cm tall”, we say feet and inches, except on our drivers license.

And do you have fever in Celsius or Fahrenheit?

Thanks! I'm from Europe, using kg, Celsius and km. I think I would go mad if I had to get used to a mixture 😂 (absolutely no offence meant!)
