Thanks, Alice! Robbie’s just done his diary for the day (www.terrierdiary.com) so it’s time for mine now.

I’ve spent the afternoon designing a flyer for Fairtrade Fortnight and Rory took about half a minute to look at it and tell me what I wanted to do. It’s a great thing to have a son with an eye for these things.

Meanwhile the launch (or maybe lurch) into Amazon has gone well, apart from half an hour this morning when Amazon’s UK site seemed to have disappeared, and the Italian language bookshop, which is my main thing at the moment, is growing nicely – should be up to five hundred different titles soon. I’ll be getting some fun, Sesame Street style Italian language song CDs from New York soon – might put them on my iPod to give the Enniskilleners a change from Bob Dylan, the Messiah, the Boss and the Black Parade…
