European immigrants brought various versions of hockey-like games to North America, such as the Scottish sport of shinty and the closely-related Irish sport of hurling, as well as the game of hockey itself (as in versions of field hockey) played in England. Where necessary these seem to have been adapted for icy conditions; for example, a colonial Williamsburg newspaper records hockey being played in a snow storm in Virginia. Both English- and French-speaking Canadians played hockey on frozen rivers, lakes, and ponds using cheese cutters strapped to their boots, and early paintings show hockey being played in Nova Scotia. Author Thomas Chandler Haliburton wrote of boys from King's College School in Windsor playing "hurley on the ice" when he was a student there around 1800.

mixed. Decimal distant places funds replace into presented a pair of months when I arrived on the scene. it extremely is whilst it began, this obsession with the selection 10. the the remainder of the metric gadget replace into presented whilst i replace into at school, so I learnt the two procedures. i stumble on it complicated to think of in oz. and pounds (and stone) those days. My weight, I continuously degree in kilograms. Recipe components, I continuously degree in grams. If i'm utilising an previous cookbook, I could desire to discover a conversion table. I, like maximum human beings my age or older, nonetheless degree human beings's top in ft and inches. that's plenty much less complicated on the innovations. yet, if I could desire to degree something linear, it will be in centimetres and metres (and kilometres, if that's that long, and millimetres if i'm wearing analyzing glasses!). My automobile travels in kilometres in line with hour (and that i pronounce kilometre the marvelous way - KILL-uh-MEET-uh - no longer the pretentious and incorrect kill-OM-uh-tuh) and it beverages petrol by skill of the litre. that's in all probability a consequence of discovering topersistent long after the metric gadget replace into already nicely-entrenched. Temperature, i'm plenty greater at domicile with Celsius than Fahrenheit. i might want a conversion table or a twin-gadget thermometer to think of what a particular Fahrenheit temperature might sense like. So, mixed... whilst are we getting 10 metric-months to a 300 and sixty 5 days? 10 days to a metric-week? 20 metric-hours to an afternoon? one hundred metric-minutes to a metric-hour? it might make greater sense to base issues on the selection you could assume 2 hands, particularly than a dozen of each and every thing (inches in a foot, months in a 300 and sixty 5 days, eggs in a carton, hours in 0.5 an afternoon, pennies in a shilling, signs and indications of the zodiac, chinese language years, apostles, and so on.) - did our distant ancestors have 6 digits on the top of each and every limb or something?
