Dennis is a well-known amateur naturalist, with (perhaps) the largest Insect collection in the
Bahamas.
He used to ship mixed cases to me (at Staniel) via the Lady Frances (mailboat); and I'd pay for it on my Spring return through
Nassau to
Florida.
He also had a couple of
washing machines, so we'd do a load of
laundry, whilst we sampled the Nassau Royale, etc. (yes, he gave free samples too).
No wonder he's out of business.
I don't
recall Bristol Liquors; but we used to
purchase commercially (for Club Thunderball) from Burns House & another wholesaler (whose name escapes me.
