It's not unusual to have last minute cancellations (though probably less so on weekends), and I usually alert the restaurant that there may be one more or one fewer than the number for which I make a reservation. If you can give me a head's up (via pm or email sent through FT) even a couple of hours before that's a great help. I'll list you as possible.
