Andrew Joynes remembers the contentment of Applegrove, in Barbados, where the conversation between the verandas continued well after darkness had fallen; and, in Trinidad, the sadness of Cascades, where a child sobbed upstairs. 'When I think of one house, I think immediately of the other, and join together images of joy and sorrow.'
