How much is a "bit" in relation to "tad" or "skosh"?

Yeah I know! I've been north of him (I think) but I timed it for June July(I ain't dumb)

Oh say 2k miles give or take, just a skosh. Just a tad south. I mean it's a bit chilly here at 95F.

Sitting on the back porch, in the shade, 95F, 26H, 57 DP. Fine cigar. Fine dram of burbon. Now THIS is a Texas summer!

Not quite as far as "up a ways", which is not as far as "over yonder".
A "fair peice" is further still.

In PNG the distances are somewhat more accurate - I will write them as spoken
- Longway means somewhere between 15 minutes and 8 hours walk
- Longway lik lik means a little long way
- Bikpella longway is longer than longway
- Longway true is even further.

Beats just down the road. Could mean next door but one or 1,000k away. Next door but one could also be 20 or more k away. 
22XC today fine and sunny.

We finally had a day under 100F yesterday.

It's averaged around 32c (90f) here in Norfolk for the past 9 days, with around 40c (104f) in my "Tin Tent".
That might seem normal for some parts of the World, but for the UK it's a bit oppressive, especially as there isn't any breeze at all.

Stuck in a city for a couple days, the phone book (Yes, that long ago) showed a hobby shop address. Asking directions, I was told, "Go to where Wal-mart used to be and turn right."

The '66 Mustang I currently own, was from a rural county (Trinity County) and is a former navigational aid. It sat in a field for many years before I got it and was part of the directions to Indian Creek Lodge.
"Go down the road a ways and take the side road just past the old white Mustang..."
Not sure what they used as a replacement, since there wasn't an old Oak tree, mailbox or other notable feature along that stretch.
Maybe there's still poor souls lost and wandering because of me!

You and Greg are lucky then because you do not need an interpreter then when reading Non Sequitur

Rain and more rain. Little people watched movies in both recess times.
