Hello, I'm Kathy Colman and I write about Eleuthera and other things.
Well I must say I didn’t really see the lockdown in Lutra coming ! So we started off with the 9pm – 5am curfew – some businesses closed – but construction was exempt so we kept the big site we were working on open. The office was closed but the workers were on site as I said. But come Monday […]
So yes – it has to be talked about – coronavirus and Eleuthera ….. Please note carefully that I say ‘coronavirus AND Eleuthera – not in Eleuthera’ At the moment there are no cases here – but at the weekend the first case was confirmed in Nassau. The Government has been quick to respond. The schools were closed down from […]
Well – this week we have a guest writer for the blog right here in Eleuthera ! Very lucky and very flattering for me – but totally unsolicited I assure you. We had our dear friends Clemens and Nancy round for supper the other evening and I received this from him the next day !!!! ” For many years I […]
So here we are mooching into March in Eleuthera – the clocks go forward on Saturday night and the lighter evenings and darker mornings will be with us. Whether you like it or not – and Mary I am thinking of you ! – that is what is happening so we have to just suck it on up ……. There […]
Yes – after a visit this week to Eleuthera Island Farm I can tell you it is rocking ! – super busy and super stocked ….. I visited on a Tuesday – which as a lot of you will know is a bread baking day. I arrived about 9.30 am and the queue to pay was huge. Collect what you […]
Plenty going on this last week with a lovely lunch, a wedding and a very special birthday – my mum Mary will be turning 93 on the day that you read this ! Fortunately we are both feeling a little better – so it has been nice to be out and about a little more. We went to a lovely […]
So here we are fumbling through February – by the end of the week we will be halfway through the month. Where is the time going ???? Of course Bob and I are recuperating from a horrible dose of the flu – Bob had it worse than me – but it is 2 weeks since I came down with it […]
Yes – you read that right – Mary’s solar adventure in Eleuthera has become a reality ! We decided some months ago that my Mum Mary’s pool would be a good place to test out solar heating for the pool water – and finally it has been finished – well more or less ……. The framework was built – 20 […]
What goes into running a successful vacation rental business is what I am talking about and thinking about this week. Bob and I stayed in an Airbnb property in Fort Lauderdale the other week – in fact it was the best vacation rental property we have ever stayed in and it really got me thinking about what are the factors […]
This is another this and that sort of week in Eleuthera – nothing major happening or to write about so the blog will be made up of snippets of this and that pulled together – well sort of – that you may find entertaining. Life is mainly like this and our life here is no different to yours – well […]
This week I want to bring to your attention a great national campaign working towards a plastic free Bahamas. It is a government initiative that since January 1st 2020 has made the importing of single use plastic bags, drinking straws, plastic utensils and styrofoam containers illegal. Of course many places throughout the Bahamas already have a stock of these items […]
Like so many of you we are trying to get back in the groove of working here in Eleuthera – not that easy eh ? Our office was closed for 2 weeks – which was great – but oh my goodness – trying to get organized and caught up again is a nightmare. Anyway – it will all get done […]
