SUMMARY:'Travels with Maridadi: Harley-Davidson Adventures in Arabia' Talk by Bizzie Frost
DESCRIPTION:After a botched spinal operation left her partially paralysed aged forty-five\, Bizzie Frost found herself unable to enjoy the active lifestyle she loved in Saudi Arabia. That was remedied six years later when her airline captain husband\, Frosty\, proposed they buy a Harley-Davidson. An invitation to join friends on a 2\,500km ride to Oman was irresistible and they bought a customised Road King. They named her Maridadi\, meaning ‘beautiful’ in Swahili. \nTravels with Maridadi is an epic account of their adventures on Maridadi in Saudi Arabia\, a country rarely visited by outsiders during the thirty years that Bizzie called it home. Riding pillion with Frosty\, she travelled thousands of kilometres across the deserts and mountains of the Kingdom\, UAE\, Oman\, Jordan\, Syria and Lebanon. Her stories and photographs breathe life into the people and scenery\, and explain the differences between the cultures of these Middle Eastern countries. Above all\, they convey the freedom and healing power of motorcycling on the open road.

SUMMARY:Talk by Liz Barron: The MV Princess Victoria Disaster: The Isle of Wight Remembers
DESCRIPTION:The loss of the Stranraer/Larne car ferry the Princess Victoria in a storm-lashed Irish Sea more than 70 years ago has surprising resonance on the Isle of Wight today. The disaster–the worst in UK waters since the Second World War–claimed 133 lives. Among the lost was Sir Walter Smiles MP\, much loved grandfather of Bembridge resident Lady Sally Grylls who was 11 years old when the ferry foundered on 31st January 1953. Only 44 people survived the wreck–33 of them rescued by the Sir Samuel Kelly Lifeboat and her courageous crew from Donaghadee\, County Down. The ‘Kelly\, a Watson Class Lifeboat\, was built in Cowes in the Samuel White and Co. boatyard. Join us to hear the continuing story of an Island lifeboat built to last–and a cherished family member who died within sight of his own seaside home.
