As usual the only reason I had time out in the City was for good reason, and today I has responded to a call from Andy McKeen and was attending the meeting of the Supreme Grand Royal Arch Chapter of Scotland meeting in Freemasons Hall, George Street. As part of the ritual !!! I had been in to the Stranding Order, but the great Pole Dancer was very busy, so I left with only one glass of Shiraz under the belt. There was an excellent attendance at Supreme, Andy; Ecky; Bertie Baa; Mr Annand; and of course Ian Alexander Fraser, Ist Principal, Tom Frost, and about one hundred others. Excellent meeting with visitors from the USA, and reports from all around the World - our 1st Principal had been very busy having returned from New Zealand, and other parts of the Southern hemisphere.
The building itself is remarkable, well worth a visit, and open to the public. The organ is fabulous and there are regular concerts held in the building.
Crests of many dignataries adorn the walls with that of George VI taking pride of place.
if you get the chance pop in, and for the curious have a look at the Grand Lodge of Scotland web site - there are no secrets - despite what folks say.
