An evening with friends on Cupid’s Cay Eleuthera

One of the great pleasures in life is spending an evening eating and drinking with friends – especially when it is spent with Dan and Larry on Cupid’s Cay in Eleuthera. They are among the finest hosts I know and a good time is always guaranteed when you are in their company. They have a charming cottage on the Cay […]

Diary of a trip to Florida

So this week’s blog is in the form of a diary about a trip we just took to Florida – well Fort Lauderdale and Miami…. We flew from Governors Harbour with Silver Airways to Fort Lauderdale – and this time it worked a treat. The flight was on time and we got through passport control swiftly and efficiently. Picking up […]

Travels with Kathy – at the Raymond Blanc Cookery School

So here I am back in the UK on my travels spending a fabulous day at the Raymond Blanc Cookery School. Some of you may have read my blog back at the beginning of last October when Bob and I went to our favorite restaurant – the Manoir Aux Quat’Saisons just outside Oxford. I was shown around the kitchens after […]

At Strawberry Hill Jamaica – just relaxing !

So here we are having a wonderful long weekend at Strawberry Hill in Jamaica – just relaxing …. Our dear friends Clemens and Nancy von Merveldt have been seduced back to Chris Blackwell’s Island Outpost Hotel group to manage the amazing Strawberry Hill Hotel in the Blue Mountains of Jamaica. The setting is so spectacular it is hard to describe […]

Inspirational people for me ……..

Every now and again I indulge myself with a blog which is really quite personal and this week’s – Inspirational People is one of those for me. I have a Pinterest board which is called Inspirational People and it is like having a grown up version of a childhood scrapbook. I am sure that most of you are familiar with […]

Looking back from Governors Estate Eleuthera 2014

In December it was 10 years since we moved to live here in Eleuthera permanently and this month it is 11 years since we first visited the island. In many ways it seems like a hundred years since we lived in the […]

Christmas with the Colmans in Eleuthera

The lead up to Christmas this year in Eleuthera with us – the Colmans – has been very busy. But now it is time to lock up the office, relax and meet up with friends and enjoy the holiday season. This is the first time for many years that I will not be cooking a meal on Christmas Day – and […]

Getting back in the swing of the season in Eleuthera

So here we are in late November getting back in the swing of the season at Governors Estate in Eleuthera. The vegetable garden is starting to thrive – plenty of salad greens and arugula at the moment. Tomato plants are getting lovely and bushy – can’t wait for the first crop of those delicious homegrown baby tomatoes to go with […]

Buena Vista House – Governors Harbour Eleuthera

Some of you will know our house – Buena Vista – here in Governors Harbour Eleuthera. This is one of the oldest houses certainly in Governors Harbour if not on the island. We bought it when we moved here just over 10 years ago and it was in a very sorry state – almost too far gone – but just […]

The other week as a member of the Rotary Club of Eleuthera I gave a brief presentation during vocations month about being an interior designer – and what I talked about was making an inspiration board. There are many types of inspiration boards – just take a look at Pinterest – the on-line version of what I’m talking about […]
