( you do 350 x 350 = why ? )" BB, In the UK 350 metres square is an area 350 metres by 350 metres ie 122,500 square metres, whilst 350 square metres is an area taking up 350 square metres. There is a hell of a difference between a metre square and a square metre. Checked this out with one of the guys who teachs maths in my University who agrees with me. Maybe things are different in Belgium. Cheers Fatbastard33 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BelgianBoy Posted September 26, 2002 Report Share Posted September 26, 2002 FB33, I knowwwwwwwww, just look higher than your last post and you'll see I confused 350 meter square with 350 square meter, more the same but somehow different as well........ So, a beer too ? or a beer² ? Cheers ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smittyjp Posted September 27, 2002 Report Share Posted September 27, 2002 I believe it is two german guys I met there one afternoon but not sure. I have had great girls from there. I usually get two or three freelancers a day from there when in town and I tend to meet other farangs there too. I met the owner of asiancuties.com there and also couple of fellow nana boardies.

There is no difference between a (meaning one) meter square and a square meter; but when it comes to numbers other than one, you are right, obviously ... Just my two meter squares ....

Guest Posted September 27, 2002 Report Share Posted September 27, 2002 Fast Fred, 10,000 square meters = one hectare. Regards Richard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 27, 2002 Report Share Posted September 27, 2002 Fast Fred, The rest of the answers: 1 Acre (survey) = 4,046 square meters (approx) 1 Rod (not rood) = 1,001 square meters (approx) 1 Peach (survey) = 25.3 square meters (approx) 1 Cubic metre : This a volume and can't be converted to a square measurement.

Guest Posted September 28, 2002 Report Share Posted September 28, 2002 Well done Richard H, I was waiting for someone to say there was 6 square metres in a cubic metre. Feel free to pick up your free soi 7 barfine at a time of your convenience. * the spelling of rod/rood had me perplexed as it is pronounced "rude". However perch is not spelt peach.
