    hi from northants.
    a cup in cooking is ... 250 ml
    unless you mean cup size ..... then it depends how big the bust is.

    Hi, I'm married to a Brit and we used to live in UK, but now live in the Netherlands. That's sort of close, isn't it? I'll send you a FR anyway :)

    Welcome TC!! Oh no! I've opened up the whole cup of worms thing again - can't we have our own unit of measurement - a mug?
    Not sure how it would work for the brassieres tho!

    I'm a British newbie too. Born in London, now living in Essex, I have three grown up children, 30, 28 & 25. I blame the last one for my weight gain, I was fine until then, lol. Need to lose lots of weight, have no motivation so have joined this site in hope of being inspired by others journeys.:smile:
