Cold front and warm tummy in Governors Harbour

At the time of writing this we are experiencing a cold front here in Governors Harbour. Strong winds and heavy rain – the sort of rain that comes in horizontally and will find any gap it can to seep through and flood into your house in unexpected places ! Temperatures are much lower than normal and the wind whips […]

End of 2015 – Happy New Year from Governors Harbour Eleuthera

So here we are at the end of 2015 and looking forward to a Happy New Year. At this time it is good to look back over the last year and be thankful for all the good times we have enjoyed and all the more challenging times we have had to endure. Friends and family are the gifts we have […]

New artwork in Governors Estate Eleuthera

This week I am delighted with a shipment of new artwork that has arrived for us here at Governors Estate. Bob’s son Cassius Colman and his partner Jessie Dyer have a great art gallery in London called Nelly Duff and when we saw a range of limited edition prints that they were selling by UK artist Nick Smith we were […]

Taking a break off the rock – to Florida

So every now and then we find ourselves taking a break off the rock of Eleuthera to visit Florida – Fort Lauderdale and Miami. This year we are not taking a vacation to Europe as we have done over the last few years – family are visiting us from London instead, so we just took a short 5 day break […]

The rhythm of the summer in Eleuthera

Here we are now near the end of August and the rhythm of the summer in Eleuthera is changing pace. The weather is still extremely hot and the ocean is scarily warm – never a good sign in hurricane season. At the time of writing Hurricane Erika is heading our way. We try to balance taking sensible precautions without scaremongering […]

Celebrating a birthday in Governors Harbour Eleuthera

This week we have been celebrating a birthday in Governors Harbour Eleuthera- mine ! I know that plenty of people do not share my enthusiasm for celebrating their own birthdays – but I have always found it a joy and a reason to bring out the bunting. For me and my two sisters birthdays have always been a joyous celebration. […]

Governors Estate Eleuthera Art Appreciation Society !

Now a tongue in cheek look at the Governors Estate, Eleuthera Art Appreciation society – 2 members so far – Bob and myself – plus hopefully some of our renters. Sometimes trying think of what to blog about can be frustrating – mostly it is about the island of Eleuthera and what goes on here or about our travels. But […]

Travels to Toronto with Kathy and Bob

So after last week’s warm up here is the news on travels to Toronto with Kathy and Bob ! What a great city – friendly, clean, safe and very visitor friendly. We flew with WestJet from Nassau – just under 3 hours – an airline I vowed I would fly with after seeing their Christmas promotion a couple of years […]

Travels with Kathy and Bob ……

So the latest travels with Kathy and Bob began with a night in Nassau. When we travel I absolutely hate to start with early morning flights – so now as a gift of kindness to ourselves we will take a sensibly timed flight and stay the night near the airport….. Flying to Toronto at 2pm would have meant taking the […]

A not so secret passion – Indian Food !

So one of my not so secret passions is Indian Food – not too easy to indulge when you live in Eleuthera ! When I first left home at the age of 19 – nearly a hundred years ago !!! – I went to live in city in the UK called Leicester. Even then it had a large Asian population […]
