Thank you Nona the Brit,but I'm still confused about it .Can I say "the guesthouse couldn't be any nicer or the guesthouse could be no nicer "?I remember last time CalifJim said " it could be no better = it was not possible for it to be better = it was as good as it could be = it was "at maximum goodness"!
