In the Republic of Ireland the job of Weights and Measures inspectors used to be performed by members of the police force, the Garda, until the late 1990s.

An Irish writer tells us about his father's switch from being a community policeman to being a Weights and Measures inspector, the introduction of the metric system in Ireland, and an Austrian novel about a Weights and Measures inspector in a distant corner of the Austro-Hungarian Empire.
