So Friday last week our grandson Indi returned to London after a month in Eleuthera. Needless to say the time just flew – but it was a great opportunity to get to know him on a deeper level than we ever otherwise would have done.

Eleuthera All That Jazz
Lots of joy and delight in Governors Harbour this week with an update on The Haynes Library and a lovely wedding celebration.
