Eusi Kwayana now 95. The Sage of Buxton, Guyana.
There is the village of Buxton on the East Coast Demerara, Region 4, Guyana. There is the city of Buxton which is located in Derbyshire in the East Midlands region of England. I know both Buxtons having been to both – one on many occasions, the other just once.
That English Buxton at 960 feet elevation, is the highest above sea level of any town in England. Its population is 23,000.
Though not as large, or as populated as its English counterpart, the Guyana Buxton is one of the lowest villages in Guyana being almost about seven feet below sea level at high tide. At this time (2020) its population is approaching 6,000. Continue reading

GUYANA: MEMORIES: The Demerara Rowing Club – By Geoff Burrowes
Little known, the Demerara Rowing Club was hidden on the East Bank of the Demerara River at the end of a dirt road running down the North side of the La Penitence Police Station. The Club was flanked on the North by one of the many Bookers wharves, on the other side of a drainage trench and on the South by a mangrove swamp with a float plane ramp.
I think it belonged to the flying pioneer, Bungles Clavier. It was perched on the edge of the khaki coloured river, surrounded by mangroves, their long crooked roots thrusting up from the river water. Continue reading →
