A planned double-second but work commitments prevented one of our Entered Apprentices from being able to attend. A single-second was the order of the day.
We were missing our Junior Deacon who was a little under the weather, but we had a fine stand in with one of our Past Masters, who performed the role perfectly, despite having no notice!
Happy New Year! As ever for us, new year and first full outing of the new team. Nothing like putting them straight to the test, as we have done for the past few years, and this year we did it with a double-second. It's incredible to think that it's the second double-second we've done in recent months, and we still have another four people to put through this ceremony! We're planning on doing doubles for those, too.
For the first time in a little while we had a full complement of floor officers, and it was great to see them all perform admirably in their new positions.
Well, after a run of seven straight initiations we simply had to start working through our backlog of ceremonies, especially as some of our newer members will be stepping on to the ladder in December.
Our nine Entered Apprentices have just been reduced to seven; we did a double second degree ceremony this month. The first in a very long time - we've not had one since I've been a member, and I've been in almost 10 years!
It was a rather special evening for us on the night of the 14th June. Not only were we passing the Grandson of one of our Grand Lodge Officers, but we also had the Provincial Grand Master in attendance to present the lodge with a festival award.
Another good turnout of our brethren for what was a pleasant evening, not only with the weather, but with the atmosphere in and around the meeting.
I'm very pleased to report that we had a number of our brethren back with us at this meeting. Still a few missing, but most of the 'regulars' were once again in attendance.
Thursday, 9th March 2017, saw us meet at the slightly earlier time of 18:30, this being to allow us to comfortably accommodate the business of the evening.
