“The allowable departure from a specification or standard, considered non-harmful to the functioning of a part, process, or product over its life cycle.”
So just to be clear. TLF tolerance with regard to occupying the Football Free Zone (FFZ):
Fairly high when the lack of football falls within an allowable departure from the standard Satday. Those allowable departures would include for example theatre trip, quality time with Mr TLF, going on holiday, attendance at a music festival.
Spectacularly low when the departure from a standard Satday goes beyond aforementioned allowable departure for examp,e having to attend a work planning event on a Satday.
The only thing keeping an intolerant TLF in good humour was the thought of wielding a shotgun in the late afternoon.
At clay pigeons I hasten to add.
