Wishing you all a Happy Thanksgiving from Eleuthera …. Now I know that it is a US holiday and I apologize profusely to our Canadian readers who I forgot to wish Happy Thanksgiving to for October 10th – and of course here in the Bahamas and in the UK it is not an official celebration at all but I just […]
Last Friday Bob had the idea that Jane deserved a day off from the relentless work of moving in to Sprawling Towers so we all took a trip to Harbour Island for a lovely leisurely lunch.

Yes – the season is now winding down in Eleuthera and I have news for you on which restaurants are closing when…. Firstly the Island Farm – they are closing on Saturday September 3rd – and although they do not have a definite date for re-opening I was told that it will be probably late October . We will miss […]
So last week we completed on the sale of our lovely home heralding the end of the Buena Vista Years. We bought the house in July 2004 and have had a very happy time there. I have written before about how I feel that the spirit of the house has a female essence for me. I am not saying that […]
Hello dear readers – and here is all the latest news from Eleuthera this week. I know I have been banging on about our fire truck for the last few weeks – but this is a very big deal. If you own a home here in the Governors Harbour area or indeed if you rent property here then you need […]
