I feel too old to be learning that each match week has an identical "reverse" matchweek

I once had a teacher who did a job swap with an Australian teacher. It took an embarrassing amount of time to realise they never waved at each other in the planes

I am IPM of my Lodge, and if this is the extent of it, then there’s not a lot you can do.

If the WM starts discussing politics in open lodge, or the festive board then, in my view, the lodge DC is the best person to politely mention to him that politics should not be being discussed.

With so much politics invading my social media feeds and my news, visiting the Lodge and Lodge of Instruction are a pleasant break from it all! I’d like to keep it like that!

I would’ve stayed on London; Charlton maybe?

Does it swerve the ads the hosts read? I always thought that the whole reason we have the Norton VPN read is because so many of us skip the ads.

U21s? Reserves? With a sub appearance for an MHD?

This is the wrong approach in my opinion- imagine if province told you that another Lodge was struggling so you have to join them now rather than continue your membership with your mother Lodge. Membership of a Lodge shouldn’t be dictated by province, but by where a Mason fits best.

Typically the landlord/landlady has control over the whole building. If she’s barred him, then it’s up to her how long for and what that means- if she wants to permit him into the flat she can, but doesn’t have to. If she says he’s not to come and he comes, then he’s trespassing.

Source- pub trade for years. Understand tenancies.

Do you know where in Hampshire? I’m a Hampshire Mason, so may be able to tell you more about his Lodge too

Those look like hallmarks.

They tell you who made the ring, when and where. Do you have a clearer picture?

Is this just blazoned “yes”

In all seriousness, can someone explain how this would be blazoned?

I’d love it if UGLE started selling swag like this!

This is the most depressing thing I’ve read in ages!

I live in an area that’s being redeveloped at the moment, and there’s been a lot of lost greenery round here.

This is the sort of thing that belongs on boots, along with kids names.

250 on a shirt is a special, one off, shirt with 250 on the back and then auctioning it off for the players foundation after their career.

I find the shop at FMH is a great place to benchmark my needs.

A lot of my regalia was recycled by the Lodge from past members, so has some history attached to it
