I had to look up outdated's two penny coin. We only had a "two pence" coin in decimal, ie., after 1971. Maybe we had them before I was born. -

^ I use metric on things such as my lathe, micrometers etc. It's the equipment I have so I happily use it, outdated. I'm also happy to use imperial measurements when doing tasks,woodwork, fitting doors, the usual home tasks. -

I can nudge towards 10 stone but rarely. I am the same weight as the time I joined the armed forces in 1980, aged 19 years. I've lost a good half inch in height since then :D I know this by comparing my asthma clinic health check with my old 1980s identity card. -
