A 90th birthday treat in Eleuthera

Although it is a few weeks to go yet we celebrated a 90th birthday treat in Eleuthera with the inaugural swim by my lovely Mum – Mary Pattison ! My equally lovely husband Bob suggested back in July last year that we should build my Mum her own swimming pool – and heat it ! – so that she could […]

Progress on the Duck Inn site and Anchor Point site…..

This week I thought I would bring you up to date on progress at the Duck Inn site and Anchor Point as well… The Duck Inn site is a big job that we are doing for clients – the people who own the Squires Estate right here also in Governors Harbour. Both Cornerwall House and Flora’s House have now had […]

At last La Bougainvillea for lunch ….

So this week we finally made it to La Bougainvillea for lunch ! What with cool breezy weather and an overpacked schedule it has taken us some time to visit Eleuthera’s latest venue – but it was worth the wait and we ate a beautiful lunch there the other day. Tom Marazza is the owner and in fact has owned […]

Here we are in a brand new year 2017 !

Well here we are in a brand new year already – 2017 ! It’s here whether you were ready or not – I know that a huge amount of people were more than happy to kiss 2016 goodbye – a very bad year for all sorts of reasons and all sorts of people….. Most years our Christmas and New Year […]

Start of the Art Trail in Eleuthera

A visit to Tarpum Bay will get you a free view of the first outdoor wall painting which hopefully is the start of the Art Trail in Eleuthera. Bob’s elder son Joel had an idea to have an art trail from one end of the island to the other – a creative lot those Colmans ! – and so he […]

Across the pond in London this week……..

Well this week I have travelled across the pond and I am in London – well also now up in Northamptonshire in the country….. Just me – and my credit cards ! Although the most dangerous spending opportunity has passed – I came over with a Bahamaian cold – yes really – the first in many years and that combined […]

Building on a great history -The Potlatch Club Eleuthera

What a treat this week to write about The Potlatch Club here in Eleuthera – building on a great history….. The new owners Hans Febles and Bruce Loshusan have started work on renovating and restoring the 12 acre property and it is exciting to see what is being done and hear of their plans. I have written before about the […]

The minutiae of life here in Eleuthera

Bob and I had to get passport pictures taken for some official documents here on island – and wherever you have them taken don’t […]
