Re: What is the difference

Welcome to the forum, Deyaaeldeen.

Please write a full sentence, telling us what 'it' is and what length of time '####' represents.

I have changed your thread title. Titles should include some/all of the words/phrases you are asking us about, and should be unique to their thread.
