The most entertaining and compelling series of five lectures covering all aspects of the RMS Titanic Story. Morag Irvings, encyclopaedic technical knowledge of the intricate detail, made the wide ranging Q&A sessions, an event to remember.
Julian Brays delivery of the story was deeply moving and powerfully illustrated with pictures and documents, many not seen before. The personal stories of the passengers on board were all brilliantly researched.
We had to move them from the 400 seat Conference Centre into our 1,200 seat theatre, and repeat some of the lectures, such was the sustained demand for places, on the maiden voyage of the Independence of the Seas which retraced the RMS Titanic journey to Queenstown (COBH) Ireland. Julian and Morag were as always a professional delight to work with.
On subsequent voyages with us, when they have been asked to repeat the series, it was noted that all of the subjects had been updated, and the theatrical on-screen presentations infused with new material reflecting the actual 100th Anniversary of the sinking.

Not Titanic but....



I know its not Titanic but this is so unusual I hope you'll excuse one digression.

We are very excited to have today taken delivery of a large collection of vintage ship's earthenware crockery dating from the late 1940s. This is in immaculate condition and is offered on a first-come-first-served basis.

According to the National Maritime Museum this was in service from 1950 until about 1970. It was recovered from the RMS Windsor Castle which was part of the famous Latsis fleet. It found its way to the Windsor Castle from its original home onboard SS Strathmore and SS Stratheden, which were originally owned by P&O, but later purchased by Latsis.

Both the Strathmore and Stratheden were built by Vickers for the India to Australia run. When these ships were scrapped their best crockery was moved to the Windsor Castle, which was the magnate Latsis's favourite ship.

Never quibble guarantee and free returns
