To me a couple is 2 (obviously), a few is 3-5, several is 6-10 and lots is 11+.

Nothing really comes to mind other than "specify please". No numbers, that is.

Agreed. Four or more is several to me. "You are going to have to wait several hours..." I think 4

Actually, 7+ exactly. A couple is 2, few is 3, and several must be around 7 or I get slightly irritated.

For me I use few and several to mean the same thing so several is 3 - 7ish. After that I use the term lot. This one's fun however, my father uses the term several for any amount including 1.
