Well like an old penny I have been able to return. I am sat outside the phone company in my truck at 5 am ( wi fi better when there are not a hundred people around) thanks so much for all the kind words above and I will post a bit of info about the storm later.
We don't need anything at the moment, I have my house and my two elderly pensioner neighbors house dry and lash up repairs completed to keep them that way. I hope to go to Nassau early next week to fill up a big old Penske with shingles, tar paper etc to make a difference down here.
The relief effort is a little slow and clunky at the moment but the Royal Navy is here so they are making a huge difference. The sales of rum has shot up though so one business is doing well even though his shop has no front.
I will be in touch, thanks again, you guys are the best.......
I detect the history: I've visited archives up & down the entire US East Coast, Bahamas, Jamaica, Kew, The Hague, etc. Have yet to go to Seville or S.American archives.
After hurricanes go thru Florida, " Weasels" come out of the woodwork & gouge people with high prices or scam labor work . Our donations can help some of those extra costs.
