The jungle drums

February 2024

We start breaking the news quite quickly. Friends who had recently stayed with us only a matter of days prior to the start of the adventure and earlier on in the year are first, and perhaps the most surprised, after all it was not even a thing then. We revel in their reactions … it’s almost that we need some reassurance that we are not totally insane. Of course nothing was confirmed and as we all know property transactions can go tits up, so we limited the grapevine.

“What?! Is he ok? has he had a brain CT?…. soooo exciting, what an adventure” Gill

“Waw. What an adventure! Follow your dreams and live life to the full – wishing you both the very best pob lwc” Nia

“You have explored the Caribbean almost annually going to different locations almost every time and for all the different locations Almost every trip you have included time in Barbados it seems that the pull back to BIM time and time again is strong. I’m looking forward to hearing about all the adventures of running a historic home, event space and guest house. I fully intend to met you there, under the sun and sky, overlooking the bluest of seas, cooled by the lovely trade winds for a proper rum punch” Sarah

“When they said they were entertaining themselves looking at houses we thought they were joking. But oh no they went and did it! Brave beautiful, bit bonkers and bound to succeed. Save some space for us” Sue

“This mad bonkers idea from my favourite peeps,
WTFF!!!! Flying Flamingoes, they’ve really gone and done it.
What a ride it’s going to be.
EXCITING
SCARY
SHTE🤣
Xxxxxx” Fran

Soon we have offers of help, painting, tiling, pool cleaners, gardeners – at least it looks like we will have lots of visitors.
