I think I know what he means. It's harder work sitting around waiting for things to happen than rushing afound for 7/8 hours, job to job to job.

I had an absolute belter of a night and felt as good at 0700 this morning as I did when I first went out at 2200 last night!

Talking to a few independents today, they were also happy with their productivity over the weekend. It was certainly noticeable that the ranks were emptier on the rare occasions that I saw them. Presumably, that was a reflection of the greater activity.
