We get to meet some wonderful people here in Eleuthera – and this week I am writing about one special person – the chocolatier Oliver Kita. We first met Oliver about 18 months ago – he was visiting Governors Harbour and staying with friends at Wykee Estates. We were invited for a fabulous dinner party – the food was delicious […]
This week we have a big attitude of gratitude here in Governors Harbour. The weather is just beautiful – best week for the last 2 or 3 months – the beaches look absolutely gorgeous and the place is brimming with visitors all enjoying spring break time. Easter is around the corner, swiftly followed by the much anticipated Jazz Festival. Lots […]
This week found me living life beyond my comfort zone as it is in Governors Harbour. Even though I said I wouldn’t bore you with the details of my trip to the dentist – I thought I was up for a scale and polish and discussion of a little vanity work – hah ! – the result was that I […]

Junkanoo, for those of you not familiar with it, is a type of Carnival parade with fantastic costumes mainly made from cardboard […]
At the time of writing this we are experiencing a cold front here in Governors Harbour. Strong winds and heavy rain – the sort of rain that comes in horizontally and will find any gap it can to seep through and flood into your house in unexpected places ! Temperatures are much lower than normal and the wind whips […]
So we decided that a visit to the famous Art Basel in Miami was on the cards for the Colmans especially as Bob’s son Cassius and his gorgeous partner Jessie were there researching new artists for their London Gallery – Nelly Duff. The show is enormous with numerous venues in South Beach as well as spreading over into the design […]
