January’s gathering was another ‘first’ for the Lodge – we seem to be breaking new ground quite a lot these days…….
This time both our two members intended for Raising became unavailable a few days ahead of the ceremony. That led to the attendance by our long-distance members becoming an unreasonable ask, so they stayed away. Very fortunately, our friends in Justicia Lodge, No.2563, stepped up and filled the gaps.
With “necessity being the mother of invention”, after the Lodge had been Opened and the usual ‘admin’ items taken place, the DC and the Secretary read some of the ”Nuggets” from the Solomon website – the history and details of a Festive Board and Good Fire, among others – to fill the time available.
All-in-all it was a rather jolly time and was enjoyed by everyone – as was the usually excellent Festive Board after.
