Good idea, I'd book online...just booked actually, pain doing it via phone.

I was thinking the same thing. Booking online would be very easy, and it would be great if there was a table you could bring up which showed what times they were already booked for.

A very academic approach, Nick. In the real world the workability of your system doesn't work like that, because you haven't factored in the unforecastable last minute domestic crises, panic attacks, the onset of procrastination, et al.

The average Joe Blo doesn't have the understanding of such a system as perhaps you or I.

Any booking online system would of necessity still require a gentle personal "nudge" as a followup to establish the integrity of those bookings.

That was my feeling to.

Who said I care about the average Joe Blo? :p
You did make a good point though - I just hope they never revert to a captcha to ensure humans booked it .

Some aren't bad but some are so bad I just give up and disappear.
