I tend to agree colin, just wanted to see what feedback I got on this, just backs up what I thought, its a no no. Cheers for your feedback.

I think sunday would be good. (more people in)

Start say 11am pack up by 1-30pm. (not knocked on a sunday myself)

your probably get some moaners.

worth a try,  we don't all think the same.

I use to worry about working on a saturday but do if i'm behind now never had a problem.

Im a big fan of canvassing ... I love it and if I wasnt so busy cleaning windows then I would do it full time on a nationwide basis ... btw Im very good at it too - sold cars for 25 years so that helps however nope never on a Sunday ... 6 other days to go at jusy my opinion though  :)

Wouldn't even consider canvassing on a Sunday personally!! I could only imagine a frosty reception at most homes.
