I book clients as a first come first serve basis.  If I cannot fit you in I will simply tell you I am booked.  I will not charge you for last minute visits.  So please don't hesitate to ask if you are stuck at that meeting or need to stay at work late - or better yet, need to stay a few more days on vacation!!  If I can fit you in, I will fit you in!!!  To ensure availability for your dates, please book in advance. This is particularly important for holidays!!
