Rumbelow welcomes DGP

A fantastic evening of fun and superb ritual at Rumbelow Council No. 67 on Wednesday 22nd March when they welcomed R.W. Bro. Colin Woodcock MBE, District Grand Prefect and a delegation of District officers.

Proceedings got underway in an unusual manner with the Lodge accounts being presented by the lodge accounts Gilbert and Sullivan, channeled via W. Bro. Richard Higginson with full choral support.

Next up was the ceremony of Knight of Constantinople with W. Bro. Mark Riches leading from the chair and the two candidates Bro. Paul Burgess and Bro. Paul Busby being conducted in splendid fashion by V. W. Bro. Jules Greenwall. All finished off by a flawless lecture by W. Bro. Terry Hall.

Both Bro. Pauls were then treated to W. Bro. Keith Florence giving a superb performance as King Solomon for Grand Tilers of Solomon. Once again ably assisted by V. W. Bro. Jules Greenwall who conducted the candidates and again all finished off by another flawless lecture by W. Bro. Terry Hall.

After the meeting was closed, brethren made their way to the holding area on the 2nd floor (aka The Bar), before assembling in the Connaught room to partake in a splendid and convivial festive board. Wine was taken, Toasts were made before brethren toasted to their next merry meeting.

Spring Lunch Event - 2023

 

We will be holding our Spring Lunch on Tuesday 11th April.

We will be having a guided tour of the beautiful Southwark Cathedral at London Bridge. There has been a Christian presence on the site since the 7th century and it was mentioned in the Doomsday book. It became a priory in 1106, then a Parish church in the 16th century and was established as a Cathedral in 1905. It sits proudly on the south bank of the Thames at London Bridge amongst the busy hub-bub of modern day London Bridge and sits along side the equally famous Borough market.

After the 60 minute tour, we will head for a 3-course lunch in a private dining room in the nearby Boot and Flogger, Red Cross Way.

If you are unable to attend the tour you are very welcome to join us just for lunch. But please book early as these events are usually booked to capacity.

Ticket price

The cost is £8 per person for the optional guided tour, and £60 per person for the dinner (which includes wine). Please feel free to bring partners and friends.
