Life this week in Governors Harbour Eleuthera

Life this week in Governors Harbour Eleuthera is still busy – despite the fact that this is the low season for rentals. It is a time for maintenance and repairs, upgrading and deep cleaning ! We have had to empty the pool at Yellow House in order to acid wash the walls and repair some tilework. Now it is looking […]

It’s very nice to go traveling but it’s so much nicer to come home !

Well it is very nice to go traveling – and thank you Frank for the inspiration – but it is so much nicer to come home ! Actually we do love traveling – but we do love the coming home part as well ….. So 2 hours back at home as I sit and write this in readiness for publication […]

Travels with Kathy and Bob part 1

This week we have part 1 of travels with Kathy and Bob – London and Whitstable – Kent – the quintessential English seaside spot. Then on to a quick tour of Canterbury Cathedral with so much eating crammed in you will be shocked – well maybe not anymore ! We flew to London from Nassau via Miami – all problem […]

Feeling gratitude in Governors Harbour

This week I am feeling a real sense of gratitude here at home in Governors Harbour. There was a lovely evening at La Bougainvillea last Thursday where a fundraiser was held in aid of the victims of Hurricane Dorian here in the Bahamas. Many of you will have seen the continuing pictures of the catastrophic damage and destruction in Abaco […]

A quick trip to Florida in the aftermath of Dorian

Bob and I took a quick trip to Florida in the aftermath of Dorian – this was booked before we even knew about Dorian and was an education in itself. Florida was of course spared in the end but preparations had been made – so when we arrived last Wednesday there were still some places boarded up. These quickly came […]

Summer’s drawing to a close soon in Eleuthera

Well summer is drawing to a close soon here in Eleuthera – although this has been the busiest season anyone has known. Things are slowing down and the Buccaneer looks like it will be the first place to close for the off season break. When I spoke to Michele Johnson earlier in the week and asked her when they were […]

A Birthday to Remember in Governors Harbour

Well this last weekend certainly gave me a birthday to remember here in Governors Harbour. I love it when my birthday falls on the weekend – particularly on a Saturday so you have Sunday to get over it – right ? It is very difficult to find anything to buy as presents here in Eleuthera and to be honest as […]

A glorious summer camp at Haynes Library

Last Friday saw the finish of a glorious summer camp at Haynes Library here in Governors Harbour. I have already told you that the theme was around the world in 30 days – well the last week after having been all around the world they made rockets to go off in to outer space ! They were made with Alka […]

Tasting wine in Da Perk Governors Harbour

This week we have been tasting – or was that guzzling wine – at Da Perk right here in Governors Harbour. Later I will bring you up to date on the eye surgery and our eating adventures in Fort Lauderdale. Horatio from Da Perk had organized the wine tasting with Mr Kyle Stubbs – the wine manager from Bristol Wines […]

Not much Eleuthera stuff this week !

Not much about Eleuthera this week – so apologies in advance for those of you wanting a local catch up ! I am going to tell you about the other 4 books in the Facebook 7 day book challenge and bring you up to date with my retina surgery in Miami. The bonus of the trip is that I am […]
