A packed room, £700 for charity and a bottle of sake

Merdon Lodge held its Installation meeting at Hursley, with W. Bro. Richard Palmer and his new team of officers taking centre stage.

The temple was packed and so was the festive board, although at Hursley these are essentially the same room with a rapid change of scenery.

More than £700 was raised for charity. Even I won a bottle of sake. Ah so.
