What is the combined height of New Order in fathoms ?

What is the circumference of Neptune in fathoms ?

Who was the fella takin 'photos at Hookys soundcheck for Hybrid, press or fan ?

What's a fathom?

1 fathom = 6' (us) 1 fathom = 1.8288 meter

Thanks for the clarity r.e. fathoms, also the soundcheck was in N.Y. The 'photographer was 'stage left'

'not sure what a league is though I'm assured they're stored 20,000 leagues under the sea , in davey jones' locker.... so Bowie is involved, has he done an Elton with Hereford ? If so, Walkden Town can let him have striker for a few bob ,or a laugh.

Only another 364 days to get a better one in then Shug!

8 Chains

What's that in rods, poles and perches though?

'dont know, but this did start of as a bit of trout tickle to bait the colonials.... perhaps if I invent the collective height of NO in chains it may flush the more pedantic out.....or shall we go metric ? Has the E.U. published any guidelines, can NO still be bought over the counter by the ounce ?

My arse they will.

Hmm, NO in fathoms: Barney is less than a fathom high, but more than a fathom around. Same with Hooky. Gillian is less in both aspects. Steve is more than a fathom tall. So, calculate :D

i'm 1 fathom tall

Okay I think the formula may work, is Billy Corgan to be included or just his head ? For purely live fathoms or special guest fathoms purposes only.

There we go, they're a dead cert. Top NOOL Football punditry from Tim's Arse - I'm off to the bookies now.

How can a thread with such a bollocks subject generate so much interest

Howa aboot their dimensions in Cables?!

US Cable? UK Cable?

Cables? What the hell is a cable?

Cable (US) = 720 Feet Cable (UK) = 0.1 Nautical Mile (607.6 Feet)

Reference: Pub No. 9 American Practical Navigator - Bowditch. Vol. I

So if I live 0.3 nautical miles from my cable internet providers node would I need 3 cables to connect to it :p :D

Well, if we are to remain true to the thread, you'd need 31 Barneys!!
