idioms, meaning "to have a good chance of success" Hi everyone,
There are two idioms, meaning "to have a good chance of success":
To be in the picture for success = To be in pole position
Do you use/ hear them?
Do you know other idioms with the same sense?
Many Thanks to everyone!Last edited by Olenek; 25-Apr-2011 at 03:07.
