1. Other wayt around: if your pounds each weighed 14 stone, they would be too big.

4. Don't know about the British, but I suspect Canadian DUers would say your stones are far too small:

(And yes, I know these particular examples are wood - but the image just seemed to work for some unspecifiable reason... ;))

6. I'd advise you to visit your doctor.
You need a prescription for a bigger wheelbarrow.
