Residential ATPL and working Part-time

Is there any pruners out there who have worked part-time while doing the ATPL's full-time?

I'm due to move onto a part-time contract with Virgin that will see me working around 2-3 trips per month, mostly at weekends. I'm reluctant to give up my job and keen to do the atpl's full-time as I prefer classroom learning as opposed to DL.

If I'm being totally honest I may have to miss around 1 day of learning every fortnight. I would like to hear from anyone who has gone through the full-time classroom course and to know if they think that it is possible to go through the course while being away at weeknds and maybe missing the odd day here and there.

Currently I'm halfway through my PPL and I'm looking at London Met, Cabair and some other schools with the plan of doing my ATPL's early 2010.

Any info is greatly appreciated.
