This must be incredibly annoying, signal issues have often been a problem in my location ever since I started (I gave up complaining a few years ago, although if I'm contacted offering me an upgrade I explain I don't want a new phone I want service, that is all). Does your phone have a wifi calling setting, as I understand it this can ferry texts as well as calls. Took me a while to realise this, and to realise it didnt involve annoying apps. I now have it on when at home only problem is wifi doesn't get into every corner of the house ,I do use wifi extenders but there's a limit to both sockets, range and sensibility. It's also no good when outdoors or away from wifi.

If you know this already apologies.

My work phone doesn't have wifi calling (even the wifi signal is terrible at my flat - it's a real black spot); I have a broken handset which I need to get fixed and then I can switch them but it's a massive pain. I got a big glut of texts yesterday lunchtime all at once and at least one had been sent two days before - that cost me a 90 minute booking with a nice bloke that I've seen before. I think people expect central London to be the place where everything works at the speed of light but a lot of it is horrendous  >:(

Still, I don't know that at least some of it isn't down to the punters phone since the other days this week have been normal enough. Half term this week, so likely a bit quieter which I won't mind too much tbh.

Im in Scotland it’s dead not one job yesterday. Halloween and half term affecting work I think. Feeling a bit deflated but trying to keep my moral up.

I cannot bear to sit there for hours and only getting timewasters Tuesday. Turned it off 1pm then later on out of curiosity checked messages. I had Missed out on two bookings. Wednesday nothing.

Roll on next week when half term is over after a stupidly long two week half term in Nottingham.

Must be some new thing.

I find the week of the Budget is always slow. And keep seeing headlines all over the place that small businesses are going to suffer.

The RMT strikes have been suspended, but ASLEF are still going ahead next Thursday (7th) which will shut the entire Tube network. I'm close to several mainline stations plus the Elizabeth Line and Thameslink but it's a pain when Thursday is my busiest day. Also Tuesday 12th, I think.
