Since I am making a drive across the country today.. I popped in and said Hi, to Mum.. who lives in Arkansas.. and I asked her how she was feeling, today?... she replies.. she was feeling queer.. and there you go.. another word and completely different meaning... she was feeling poorly..
and a big difference in the States and UK... in the US 100 years is a long time.. in the UK 100 miles is a long distance... I drove 600 miles, today. I started out about 75 miles south west of Dallas, Texas... and at the moment I am in Mt Vernon, Illinois, about 800 miles, apart.. and tomorrow I will drive my last 200 miles.. from my home, to south of Chicago, where I will be working for the next two months.... is a 1000 miles. I have to drive, because I need to carry my tools..
