Multicultural measuring cups

Some of my recipes use cup measurements rather than weights. I'm a big fan of measuring cups as they are so easy to use (and are great when you've got the kids helping in the kitchen).

Confusingly an American cup holds 237ml and a metric cup (used in Australia, Canada and the UK) holds 250ml. Just to be different, I use a 200ml measuring cup for my recipes, as that's the size of the one which came with my bread maker...after some careful research (OK I Googled) I have found that this turns out to be a Japanese cup!
