no i wouldnt want to/ feel comfortable, have collected in the past on a sunday but wouldnt now, just feels a bit intrusive. apparentl though sundays are statistically the best days for leaflet dropping as no other mail arrives people pay more attention to it.

Sundays are ok as long as it's after 7pm...7pm onwards and the weekend is over and people are back into work mode. I happily phone people Sunday evenings to arrange a clean for the coming week.

Cleaning windows on a sunday i plain wrong, that is mostly peoples day off/ day of rest,

Knocking on a sunday for canvassing personally it would not bother me so I would say do it, you will always come across people that object but these type of people noramally object doing it any day of the week.

If someone canvassed my house on a Sunday I would listen to them I would not have a problem with it. Hence why I would say go for it.
