Default Conditional Formatting Weekends

Is it possible to apply a conditional format to weekend dates? For example,
my spreadsheet has been filled in with the date format showing the days
"Thu-Mar-8-07", and when it contains "Sat" or "Sun" I would like a
conditional format, but I cannot seem to get it working.

Thanks for your help!

Use this for A1 and paint it in for other cells that have dates you want this
format for

Conditional formatting - formula is
=WEEKDAY(A1,2)5
select a colour
