Halloween in Governors Harbour 2016

Halloween is a big excuse for a party and Halloween 2016 in Governors Harbour made the most of it. It started on Friday night with what is laughingly called Happy Hour at Bacchus Fine Foods – but of course it lasts way longer than an hour ! We loaned our skeleton pirate out to Angelika – it was good for […]

More travels with Mary…………

So here we have part two of the saga of Travels with Mary – our second trip to Fort Lauderdale. Another great flight with Watermakers Air from North Eleuthera to Fort Lauderdale Executive Airport – a quick taxi ride to the hotel and then I picked up the rental car – yes this time I fortunately did remember to check […]

A week in October – in Eleuthera

This is the story of a week in Eleuthera when nothing much is happening……. best news of the week is that Da Perk coffee shop is open again after a few weeks break – yippee ! Having said that of course we remain eternally grateful to Bacchus Fine Foods who did not close down at all. We were there to […]

Matthew passing by and travels with Mary

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 – […]

Preparing for a visit from Hurricane Matthew

So right now we are preparing for a visit from Hurricane Matthew – a slow moving and very powerful category 4 hurricane. Preparations mean storing everything away from outside – not just our house and my Mum’s house but all 3 rental houses and the 2 apartments as well. That is a lot of sun-loungers, tables and chairs, umbrellas , […]

Except of course to bring you up to date on what is happening at the various sites we are working on …… And there is plenty happening. At the old Duck Inn site we are […]

Time for a short break from Eleuthera

Although living here in Eleuthera is really wonderful, sometimes you need to find the time for a short break and so last weekend we took off for a few days to Florida….. there were chores to be done of course – all the usual – Home Depot, Lowes, Harbor Freight Tools and of course Ikea as well. Plus a very […]

An Arty Week in Governors Harbour

What a great arty week we have just had in Governors Harbour ! Saturday 10th September saw the launch of the art show – Max and Amos – featuring the work of Maxwell Taylor and Amos Ferguson at the beautifully renovated old Pyfrom’s liquor store – now known as the Pink Perch. It was staged by the National Art Gallery […]

Rudge has landed – right in his Gucci slippers !

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 […]
