Members of Metropolitan Council TI "A" assembled in Grand Lodge at Mark Masons' Hall on Wednesday 17th January. They kicked off the new year in fine style by introducing 2 brethren as Knights of Constantinople. The common people were really common and the Nobility were very noble!! This was then followed by making 4 brethren Grand Tilers of Solomon. Both ceremonies conducted in fine style by the Worshipful Master, W. Bro. Terry Worrall, ably assisted by his officers.

Meeting concluded we made our way to the waiting area on the 2nd floor before proceeding to the Earl of Euston room for an excellent festive board with fine wine and Port. Toasts made and concluding with a toast to our next merry meeting.
