    What do you mean with having an idea but not so sure, Gwendy?


    So far -> until now (namely)
    So far so good -> until now it's quite good.
    So far so good is said when progress has been satisfactory up to then.
    Ex.
    Jo : "Do you get on with your GymGlish, Jane?
    Jane: "So far so good. But still hard work ahead.


    That's my view, Gwendy. How does that catch you?

    a bit late am i to answer... thanks for your response.
    "so far so good" : i like the music of that phrase which sounds like a verse.... so far, so good... i am going on with my gymglish.
