This week I am actively feeling gratitude for what we have and what we can do while we are lockdown in The Bahamas…… Over the long Easter weekend we were on a total lockdown – confined to our homes and gardens – but then from 5am on Tuesday morning we were allowed to go out to shop and to take […]

How often have you said ‘ I wish I had more time to sort things out at home – or relax a bit more – or spend time doing my favorite things – well be careful what you wish for – right ????? Wouldn’t it be great to have something really exciting to write about – but instead here are […]
So if you have been wondering how we are filling our time while on lockdown in Eleuthera here is all the latest news !!!!

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 […]
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.
