[Frances and/or Richard Clee]

Long as it doesn't trespass on some special event and assuming our 
health holds up, just about anytime is fine with Frances and I.

However do be aware that favourable prices are unlikely to be available 
for accommodation over the August Civic Holiday weekend. I don't think 
that the change in exchange rates is likely to affect the hotel room 
rates much; they have tended to quote them in Canadian dollars anyway 
though I have no doubt the management thinks in US$.

You might want to disclose your thoughts on food. Time was when 
Hull/Gatineau had a reputation for quite high quality dining at very 
fair prices; what will be available now though is something on which 
suggestions will be welcome. (Ron knows a nice little Middle Eastern 
restaurant over in Ottawa, but I don't think that's what we will be 
wanting).

Time's getting short so please do firm things up a.s.a.p.
