13.5 hh doesn't exist. It would either be 13.2 hh (13 and 1/2 hands high) or 14.1 hh (13 hh plus 5 inches). I'm starting to think this difference in measuring is why we see so many odd horse ads in the U.S. stating the horse is 14.5 hh or 14.8 hh.
Correct, I was tired and picked a random number without thinking. x'D I'll update it as to not confused people.

While I can't promise to make this change anytime in the very near future (lots of other projects on the table) I though I'd at least let you guys know that the data stored in the database is actually in cm and kg :) Its converted to hands and lbs for display purposes.
