So this week saw Hurricane Matthew passing us by in Eleuthera and then travels with Mary – to Fort Lauderdale. Firstly we are all so incredibly grateful that Hurricane Matthew took a turn to the west and barely brushed us really. We had some incredible horizontal rain – for long periods of time and some very strong gusty winds – […]

Rudge has finally landed here in Colman Towers right into his Gucci slippers ! Rudge for anyone who has not been paying attention is our gorgeous new Potcake puppy – just about 8 weeks old now. We picked him up last weekend – and bought him home. He was bathed and fussed and petted – well the fussing and petting […]
So we had a wonderful time – all the way from Governors Harbour to New York City… Actually it is a pretty easy trip – we flew JetBlue from Nassau direct in to JFK. The flight is only about 2hrs 20minutes and then a taxi ride into SoHo. We were in the Crosby Street Hotel by 2.15pm. And what a […]
It is not often enough that Bob and I take a trip around the Bahamas – but this week we did – we took a trip to the Exuma Cays and went swimming with the pigs ! We have heard about it from various sources and so when our good friends Tommy and Natasha Sands from Rock Sound asked us […]
This week we visited – long overdue – Ocean Tally – the latest place to feature in the Best of Eleuthera series. We had a long and leisurely Sunday lunch at the dramatically sited restaurant right up at Whale Point in the north of the island. There are 3 cottages at the moment with plans for another 3 coming soon. I […]
How exciting to be writing about Bacchus Fine Foods – in the very best of Eleuthera series. It’s not often that I have the opportunity to write about a brand new venture right here in Governors Harbour – but here it is ! Angelika Bacchus – formerly of the Beach House – has just this week opened a wonderful gourmet […]
So – Potcakes – a love story right here in Governors Harbour. Many of you will know already that our lovely, lovely potcake Joe Louis died last Saturday. He was suffering very badly so we called the vets at Palmdale Veterinary Clinic to come and put him out of his misery and help him on his way……. In the end […]
This is the story of how Joe Louis our potcake goes to Nassau. Living on island like Eleuthera has some fantastic advantages but of course there are some things that are more difficult than if you live in a big city. Last year our lovely dog Joe Louis – who many of you know personally – had some health problems. […]
In the Best of Eleuthera series I want to highlight the upcoming festival of Eleuthera All That Jazz 2016 – happening all over Eleuthera from March 30th – April 3rd. As many of you are aware this raises much needed funds for the Haynes Library – last year over $40,000- a fabulous effort. The festival kicks off this year on […]
The week before Christmas in Governors Harbour– how quickly that has come and how much there is to do and enjoy ! Always important to remember in the rush of everything to savour these times…… There are so many people in the world who, for one reason or another are not able to enjoy the season, that it is important […]
