Kieran, i have some spare tights you can boprrow but they are not green like the Chas,s they are the black fishnet ones...but you are quite welcome. I really would love to be there with you but i believe it clashes with Mrs Cs birthday so not really a good idea. Just watch out for where Chas puts his bow and arrow..i dont think it is that straight. As for his big staff? I am not a London Plumber so we dont earn as much on thh south coast so we cant always be abroad like your plumber who is obviously getting away as people are chasing him for boilers he has not fixed. ANYWAY ... I am a "Heating Engineer" PLUMBER ....."How very dare You"

Having worked on a few building sites, plumbers in tights is not so odd.

I am now in possession of a Province of Nottingham-tie ... so I guess that's it for my Master's wages?
Seriously, that was incredible. Even having stumbled across the basics of the degree (although I have tried my best to avoid reading too much), there were some major surprises and revelations. And I was allowed to speak for myself for the first time! (outside of the degree, that is.) And in a week I also get to vote for our new WM. And I'll get my Masonic passport! And a membership of the Lodge of Research. And, and, and ... *gasp* *phew* *wow*
Also, I felt really priviliged to have six UK brethren present, including Forester and Bod, and I think it's fair to say that they were entertained. Do come back for my IV-V, which should be even more spectacular.
Can't believe how fortunate I am to be on this journey ...

Yes I can echo Thomas's words - The ceremony was most excellent - I took over a few of the elder brethren of my own lodge and although they had seen alot of ceremonies over the years they were all left speechless by the Swedish 3rd - They are already on about travelling over for the 'HRA' part of Thomas's travels !!
If ever anyone ever has the opportunity to visit a ceremony in Denmark then do take up the offer - The Danish Brethren are extremely welcoming.

Thomas, belated congratulations for your raising. I am however suprised that you dont get to vote in lodge until you are a MM but this goes to prove how differently we all do things which makes it so interesting.
Bod and Forester are entertaernaing in themselves alone but i am glad they enjoyed it and that the entertainment in the bars of Copenhagen was of the right sort. ?

Our system is pretty simple, actually: We're not allowed to do anything until we're MM. Someone must generally speak on our behalf.
