A good few months? Someone said, "I still have a good few months left" "A good few months spent interacting with XXX" "It could take any other party a few good months to do XXX" "I've been eyeing on the calendar for a few good months thinking XXX" I understand that "good" used in these contexts expresses the fact that there's still plenty of time, like "wow I still have this much time left!" Here I have some questions. 1) Do you say "a good few days/months/years" in a negative way? For example, "We're going to have to tolerate the noise for a good few weeks until they move out." Or, do you always say "a good few XXX" to mean that you are happy about having this much of something? 2) Do you use the phrase "a good few XXX" for something besides talking about time? Most of the examples I've seen are about a certain period of time like "a few good months." In addition, someone said "a good bit of effort." Besides "time" and "effort," what else can you think of regarding the use of "good" like this?
