Am I the only person who dislikes regulars? They always have higher expectations and hence are more work. Plus a lot of them want discounts for "loyalty". Finally a week with all regulars isn't showing the effectiveness of my ads.
I have one particular regular who I’ve told myself too many times “this is definitely the last time I’m seeing him”, because he’s hard work and always asks for discounts.
But, I always prefer seeing a regular to a new client. I feel quite stressed whenever I have a new client booked in because I’m on such high alert. I’m still on alert with all clients regardless of them being regulars, but I just prefer to know who’s coming to my door.

I’ve been doing a lot of touring today was great exceeded my target in a new location fresh meat syndrome! Hope it continues this week In another new location. I noticed a lot of London hotels are very cheap this week perhaps with lack of people traveling.

Regulars are a nightmare not only do they expect discounts it's their yapping that drains me and I hate it.

Regulars are great because you know they’ll show up even during a storm , Coronavirus hoopla etc but yes the overfamiliarity and always expecting each time to be better than the last  ::) so I tend to ignore them for a week or two give them a chance to miss me a bit!

Made a loss for the first time EVER past two days. Cancelled the rest of my week so I don't lose anymore. Never known it this dead, I'm guessing its virus paranoia and they are all online wanking instead! Will stay at home and dust off my webcam I think!

It could just be a dead tour it happens from time to time. Difficult to say if it is Coronavirus related although some might avoid punting there is plenty of sex mad punters that do not care about risks of any kind and will still visit.

I hope it's just a random fluke. In 8 years I've never actually made a loss. Breaking even is my idea of a bad tour.

Oh well, I guess it's a kick up the arse to step my marketing game up!

Aaaaannnnnnd it's gone dead again.  I think we are really suffering with the business travel loss  ???
Even the timewasting enquiries have trailed off, lord knows it is bad if the timewasters can't even be bothered.

I have had a couple of tours where it is just dead and i have left early so not even made hotel costs it can happen occassionly. You been lucky in 8 years it has never happened to you. But obviously do not know how many days you tour for mine is usually 2 to 3 days at 1 place.

I do think coronavirus is beginning to take a hold now - a few people I know have said London is very quiet in general.

I’m in London at the moment I’m definitely getting less calls and texts. One of my clients said a lot of his colleagues are working from home so that could be playing a part

I've done two bookings this afternoon. One 30 mins and one hour  :)

The last guy was a Scot who travels a lot around England for business. He said this virus is affecting his work. Didn't stop him from booking though  :)

The virus is all any of my clients are talking about. Managed two decent bookings today, hoping the rest of the week continues on okay - I did expect it would be busier but I think coronavirus is putting people off somewhat. My civvy job is totally dead too because of it.

One thing I noticed is that at the weekend those that drink and sniff it has not put them off they still want to book us. Those who I make sure I am awake for when working at the weekends. It is the day time meets that is slow.
