People in the UK use imperial for all kinds of things all the time, not just distance. I don't know anyone who knows their height in centimetres. Everyone still uses feet and inches. Land is still usually discussed in sq ft, acres, hectares etc. Weight (of a person) is still stones and pounds.

    FWIW I use centimetres and feet relatively interchangeably for height and know a lot of others that do the same

    Weight is very much kg these days in my circles, I think older relatives are the only ones still using stone. Not sure when that flipped really as it was definitely stone when I was growing up
