I have found it harder to get an on the day booking at weekends
I agree. last minute/on-the-day is a pain. However, with a little planning weekends are primetime for me:
Seems as though the majority of the punting population is being dragged around the shops by OH, entertaining family, pursuing/watching sport.......
So, every meeting I have had on weekends is a far more relaxed/unrushed. Generally most decent WG's close up shop before the footie-fans stumble out the pub.
Some of the most enjoyable have been mid-morning Sunday's - when most folks thoughts should be elsewhere,
Monday by contrast is a pain,as all the frustrated are let loose - but then I don't give a ..... as I am recovering after the weekends exertions
