Here I am, sitting at the computer, feeling a little sorry for myself. It's Canada Day and I have no one to celebrate with! I was thinking in the back of my mind about having a little impromptu pseudo-barbecue (pseudo because we don't eat meat and don't have a barbecue) but when we got back from vacation we were so tired and had so much to catch up on that I forgot. Not that there would have been many people to invite - certainly no other Canadians. I hope you are all enjoying it over there - a nice hot one, I assume.

Ian has driven down into the depths of Cornwall to interview a couple of people running bed and breakfasts for his dissertation. He's writing about whether this particular type of European Union funding called Objective One funding has created sustainable tourism businesses. Amelia is at day care.

I heard back from the publisher to whom I sent the book propsal. They said they are passing it on to an acquisitions editor to review, and they will get back to us in about a month. Nothing to get too excited about, but still a good sign.

Have fun!
