Does anyone know how 33.2 cu ft equates to litres? I know the freelie is 755 ltrs so just need a comparison.

CG's very kindly given you the link to an online solution. Bravo CG.

But before the days of the internet and computers and calculators we had to use "slide rulers" and pencil n paper - so for those who have not got electronic devices to hand or there's a power cut you may want to make a note of the calculus its:

More accurate than car makers' own pieces of string.
1 cubic ltr = 0.0353 cubic foot.
Therefore divide 33.2 cubic ft by 0.0353 = 940.510 cubic ltrs. Simple Smile

They did - and our outside lavatory was also full of'em.

My mathematics teacher Tim Rudge (he also taught Clarkson who was a basket case) couldn't concur with my thesis that a millipede was yet a still to be discovered expression of the metric system devised (so claim the Froggies) by Mouton in 1670. However, every English schoolboy knows it's founding father was that veritable man of the cloth Bishop John Wilkins in 1668.

Standards have slipped to a low point only eclipsed by Dave Cameron's performance yesterday! Oh, he really does think he is the ruling elite who are never wrong, just like he was taught at Eaton.


Absolutely right.
I didn't see the whole day's performance but in the news bites I watched he was hardly statesmanlike in his posture let alone his babbling recollections of his Cabinet notes n meetings and his social (or other) engagements with Rebekah.

And as for his text messages, perhaps Ms Brooks (she whose parent's couldn't spell her name correctly) should have used some of those thousands of hours she clearly spent in Cameron's company to teach him a trick or two about how to retrieve, thrash permanently or securely hide his keystrokes. In summary Counsel made him look like an inept amorphous apatosaurus.

United Kingdom 2011 Freelander 2 TD4 GS Manual Rimini Red

cheers y'all

bigger boot than the freelie so thats fine.

Having some problem booking the holiday - travel agent chappie I was dealing with has left the company and little hand over. Replacement seems to thing that it would be a good idea to change hotels every day even though I'm staying in same town and in the meantime flight prices have gone up.

They have until Friday or I go somewhere else....... and they miss out on their commission........

DR There's always a way forward!
