It's annoying isn't it .. most are just queries but pretend to book with no intention of arriving I found. They want postcode so I only give with booking they suddenly pretend to be interested but fail to convince me these days . I let them chat then say ok I'll send postcode and don't. They don't ever call back or ask for it again

This works well and I have tried it a few times when doubting the sincerety of the caller. This morning though I tried it as was convinced this man was not going to show.  He called again for the postcode after I said I would text it but didn't.  He was genuine.  He turned up and was very very nice. 

 

Luckily I've had a pretty good week so far and well over my target. Hoping it continues this way. I'm putting half into saving as no doubt next week will most likely dip. When do these school holidays end?

I think these are the Lloooiinngg ones hate to tell ya xx

End of August? Or beginning of Sept? Even hotel prices are through the roof with the holidays

Today, as everyone is well aware, is one hell of a hot day and doubtful we will get another day the same (I hope not anyway).

My phone has been dead except for a few really rude idiots and all asking me if I do outcalls. No, I do NOT. I make it clear on my ads and profiles its incalls only and the area I am in and yet they always ask, and where are you? Wheres that? One even had the cheek to argue that I wasn't in the area I have lived in all my life, I was more West. I think I know where I live! Asked if I was worth him travelling 55mins to see me. He got blocked instantly. What a tosser. I should of refered him to google before I blocked him to read that he was wrong and I was of course right about my location. Whoever said the customer is always right is a thick idiot.

Anyway, why on earth would punters think that any big girl who only does incalls is going to get on a sweaty bus and tube on the hottest day of the year at the drop of a hat??? Gonna be hard enough for someone driving just now but at my weight and on buses and tubes they are bloodywell having a laugh!!!

Anyone else who doesn't offer outcalls getting silly buggers calling asking today or generally being rude?

Here we go, now the prats on my blocked list have decided to try calling n bothering me. I think the heat brings out the biggest timewasters and know it all's for some reason. Not made a penny today and started at 9.30am!!! Only one quickie last night and nothing the rest of the week. Honestly I will be glad to see the back of this heat, its not good for business.

How is everyone else finding business and managing to cope with the heat? I am just laying in front of my fan and hardly moving.

yeah? well I got an outcall outfit request (black stockings and suspenders/ the whole shabang type of thing)   

English green thanks for your post .
I'm not working this week I decided that sitting indoors waiting for  time wasters and inquiry callers was soul destroying.
I am sure there are ladies who are busy and some  who have no bookings at least some are genuine on here .
I'll do last day of July and first week August.
I've been getting the odd pointless email but nothing else.
I'm far to hot to care or get wound up lol !
My civvy pay was not great so I better try but my patience runs out fast ..
Shall offer iced drinks  to the rare client who turns up

Sugar I had the same 'hermit' problem and made my workplace a prison especially when it's slow.
My experience 'sitting indoors' waiting for clients is a horror of course you will get depressed.
You are torturing yourself. 'Sitting' makes me stale, anxious and not much fun for genuine clients who come along. I think it also shows in our voice in a subliminal way and the clients can tell we're not 'sparkling'.
Isn't there anywhere close by you can sit or walk outdoors?

Done 2×30 minutes that's it this week
