    How big is a perch?

    Well that hooked a few?

    Looking for a measurement conversion I stumbled across this place:

    http://www.onlineconversion.com/

    Very useful for those who think that they live on a "farthingdale" sized block of land and usually follow Delias recipes that require Gas Mark 3 and "hide their lights under a bushel".

    Never mind that how high is a horse ?

    And what's the difference between a high horse and a low horse ? (in feet and inches).

    Any why are people always so insistent that others come down off their high horse ?
    It's not broken. It's "Carbon Neutral".

    a difference between a high horse and a low horse is about an inch

    as a horse is measured in hands a hand is four inches........

    a horse is measured from 14.3h and upwards anything below is classed as a pony.......hence your high horse and your low horse.....

    As long as a piece of string I would have thought

    But seeing we are asking about measurements, does anyone know how long a chain is?

    My inquiry is to do with a book I'm currently reading where they were measuring their granted blocks by amount of chains in each direction and the incident with Augustus Poeple where his corner mark was out due to his chain being stretched
