I have the car booked in for a service today.....with a lifer 3 hours away BAD TIMING!
I have set myself a "soft" 2 hour twitch rule..that is to say if something drops in and it's less than 2 hours (ish) away I'd go.
The SB Dowitcher would be a lifer...they just don't land on the island! so maybe I could stretch to 3 hours?...but the cars in the garage!
I have a meeting planned for tomorrow and I go away tomorrow night so it looks very much like this little lifer is going to escape me unless it hangs around then I may catch up with it at some point.
This game needs boundaries. It needs a sense check on every twitch. Costs need to be considered.
Time needs to be considered...dare I say the better half needs to be considered!
So all things considered....I still want to go and see it!
fingers crossed for it to be a long stayer!
