Brethern,

I got an email today from a brother.

 " I was at a meeting at the Wallsend temple on the 5th of June 2008 when the proceedings were interrupted by one of the brethren saying that there was an image of George Washington on the kneeling stool, which caused consternation. The proceedings were halted until all assembled had seen the image. Being inquisitive I went back the following morning and took some photographs before the image was disturbed and these are the results."

Here are some of the images

I don't know about you but it is time to visit the lodges in Wallsend Lodge room.

According to the ex-Provincial Secretary WM Brian the modern name for a "Masonic temple" is "Lodge Room"
