Is it possible to take the 6am start on a 3 month trial? I did just this myself some year back for same reason - three vacancy and beginning to panic. But it was super hard.

For me, not such issue in summer time but when Christmas come and the snow, it mean getting up really early to get all done before 6am.

If you cannot take on trial, make sure your contact permits you to give notice. Then when things pick up a bit, you have option to decide if you want to keep this client or replace with someone who not need such early start.
