Oct 2012 seems like more than 2 years ago to me!
i.e. w/o counting on my fingers about what year was what, I'd think
"a few..." (because "has it really been only 2 years since....")
or "been a while..." (another elastic term). :-)

Depends on how you define "few". Some areas of the country tend to use "few"
to mean "couple". Here's something I found on the internet. :-)
"While many people would agree that "few" means three or more, the actual
dictionary definition of "few" is, "not many but more than one." So, a "few"
cannot be one, but it can be as low as two. This surprises a lot of people."
