I have never heard anyone in the US say honing in on, it was always homing

Translation :-
Decided to go to the pub after work for a few beers. When I arrived I couldn't believe my eyes, my old mate had only brought along the wife. After a bit of chat, and lies (in the context of pub talk) we all felt starving, so decided to go for a curry, unfortunately the food was c**p, and afterwards I was sick.
