Did the U.K. rename the body's pedal appendage when they switched
to SI? It's still "put your best foot forward".

It was a joke.

Anyway, we haven't change to SI. We still use both F and C for temperatures, although younger folk seem to prefer C. All our road signs are in miles and miles per hour. We measure a car's petrol consumption in miles per gallon, yet it's dispensed at the pump in litres!
