    Cheers Yorkie...

    What do the US, Bahamas, Belize, the Cayman Islands, Palau, Micronesia and the Marshall Islands still do that other countries don't?

    That's it - the only countries where Fahrenheit is still used as the 'official' scale for measuring temperature.

    The only football related 125 records I can think of are Peter Shilton's 125 international caps and Blackpool's number of goals conceded in a top flight season. Not too sure that either is in danger of being beaten anytime soon though...
