This week I am feeling a real sense of gratitude here at home in Governors Harbour. There was a lovely evening at La Bougainvillea last Thursday where a fundraiser was held in aid of the victims of Hurricane Dorian here in the Bahamas. Many of you will have seen the continuing pictures of the catastrophic damage and destruction in Abaco […]

Bob and I took a quick trip to Florida in the aftermath of Dorian – this was booked before we even knew about Dorian and was an education in itself. Florida was of course spared in the end but preparations had been made – so when we arrived last Wednesday there were still some places boarded up. These quickly came […]
Pretty much all of you will be aware that we had a brush with Hurricane Dorian here in Eleuthera. And it was only a brush – unlike the devastating hits that Abaco and Grand Bahama have suffered. When a hurricane is coming of course these days we have the luxury of knowing that it is coming. But you never know […]
Well summer is drawing to a close soon here in Eleuthera – although this has been the busiest season anyone has known. Things are slowing down and the Buccaneer looks like it will be the first place to close for the off season break. When I spoke to Michele Johnson earlier in the week and asked her when they were […]
Well this last weekend certainly gave me a birthday to remember here in Governors Harbour. I love it when my birthday falls on the weekend – particularly on a Saturday so you have Sunday to get over it – right ? It is very difficult to find anything to buy as presents here in Eleuthera and to be honest as […]
Last Friday saw the finish of a glorious summer camp at Haynes Library here in Governors Harbour. I have already told you that the theme was around the world in 30 days – well the last week after having been all around the world they made rockets to go off in to outer space ! They were made with Alka […]
This week we have been tasting – or was that guzzling wine – at Da Perk right here in Governors Harbour. Later I will bring you up to date on the eye surgery and our eating adventures in Fort Lauderdale. Horatio from Da Perk had organized the wine tasting with Mr Kyle Stubbs – the wine manager from Bristol Wines […]
Not much about Eleuthera this week – so apologies in advance for those of you wanting a local catch up ! I am going to tell you about the other 4 books in the Facebook 7 day book challenge and bring you up to date with my retina surgery in Miami. The bonus of the trip is that I am […]
It really is a sizzling summer here in Eleuthera – and we had a spectacular thunderstorm and plenty of rain to prove it. Hopefully the rain will cool the ocean down a bit and lessen the risk of a hurricane…… Meanwhile the Haynes Library Summer camp for the kids is going from strength to strength. This week there is a […]
So this last week we took another trip to Fort Lauderdale for Bob to get laser surgery on his second eye. I am so pleased to say that it went even better than the first one with much less discomfort and soreness. Dr Spratt and his team at the South Florida Eye Health Clinic do a wonderful job and we […]
