Lady Sally Grylls, who lives in Bembridge, is the mother of Chief Scout and adventurer Bear Grylls, but I soon discovered she has led a remarkable life of her own - but is still getting used to being called a ‘Lady’. Meanwhile, Dave Wheeler has been an Island longshoreman virtually all his life, and has a fascinating tale to tell about life around Steephill Cove. With Bestival 2014 fast approaching, I spoke to curator and top radio DJ Rob Da Bank about how he puts the spectacular music event together, and he also talks about his own new venture. And read how Island football referee Lee Probert rose from the sloping pitch at Niton to the hallowed turf of Wembley Stadium. Get an insight into the top Island attractions; look behind the scenes at Bembridge, and enjoy the features on new cars, equestrian, health and beauty, gardening, food and drink and much more.
