THIS! I keep asking business owners in my central London area that I'm friends with (pubs, coffee places and off licences) how they are doing and they all tell me same thing: it's very slow for them and they hardly notice any difference since lockdown.

Phew! It's not just me...

I live centrally and was having this same conversation today. Superficially, it looks busier as there are lots of people out and about, but they're not actually spending money, they're just milling about. Most odd.

Was extremely busy in Birmingham and exceeded my targets for the two days by a landslide now back in London and still dead cannot understand it perhaps it’s time to consider another tour. Manchester is on my hotlist. Anyone in Manchester know if business is good?

A bit quiet today, partly I imagine because the weather is shocking. No one wants to come out in this weather, not even to get their leg over.

I'm not far from Manchester and it's busy enough for me. But I'm not spending additional money on renting for work so don't take my word on it. When I'm fully advertised and making a full effort I'm seeing 5 ish clients in the day

Wow 5 a day is great, I wouldn't be able to do that many though in my location but happy with a cple a day which seems do able at the min.

Had phone ring over 12 times yesterday but today diddly squat.

I've notice a slight (just slight) improvement in business in central London (hoping I don't jinx it by writing this). Also a friend of mine who's a stewardess for a very big known airline and who was supposed to be on furlough till July has been called to the job yesterday as airline is flying again. This last news gave me great hope.

I believe if the vaccination rate continues fast and steady, we don;t go into a another lockdown and people start travelling again the economy will start improving step by step.

Crosses fingers.

I like money too much and decided I don't really care about what the neighbours think. Although I haven't had an issue with them yet But thanks guys I'm hoping I stay busy
