We are very lucky to have been meeting regularly. Another double Initiation last night and a very busy Lodge Room. Superb to see no fewer than six EAs now seated at the N E. Now to find time for Passings and Raisings. Ich dein. Solent Area Masons Hants & IoW Masons United Grand Lodge of England

This is what our EA's bench looks like at the moment (and that's not all of them!) To help us out, our lovely neighbours at Clarence 8167 are going to Pass two for us this Thursday. Looking forward to a great evening. United Grand Lodge of England Solent Area Masons Hants & IoW Masons #Freemasonry

Curly, Larry and Mo? Seriously though, a super evening at POW Lodge. A double Passing. Happy to be able to present £220 to the Widow's Sons Masonic Bikers Association for this year's Scratch appeal. Solent Area Masons Hants & IoW Masons United Grand Lodge of England

Members of POW Lodge on our annual visit to our friends at Bishopswood Lodge. An absolutely superb ceremony of Initiation and good fun at dinner where we changed into Christmas ties. Bill Starkey DavidA Hants & IoW Masons Solent Area Masons

Today we are trying to put together a visit to the beautiful island of Jersey. We hope to visit two lodges in two days, including our namesake lodge Prince of Wales No. 1003. COVID restrictions permitting of course.

Absolutely superb support at our Lodge of Instruction meeting tonight. 20 in attendance including a Bro who was only Initiated a couple of weeks ago, a new guest member and also 3 GOs. On the up and up. Solent Area Masons Hants & IoW Masons United Grand Lodge of England

First meeting of the Hants & IoW Masons Prov Dep GDC's Mess for more than 3 years, with our new Honorary Member who made a presentation of a 50 year award and also the PGM's Certificate of Service to Allan Gregory. A lovely evening.

Superb evening tonight. Necessary absence forced us to field a 'B team ' but they delivered an 'A team' performance. Wonderful to have massive support from Fareham Lodge 8582, Football Lodge, Wessex L of Fidelity, Bishopswood Lodge and many others. An Initiation for a superb candidate. Lovely.

A recce visit in advance of our visit to Prince of Wales 1003 and De Carteret 3459 in October. St Helier Masonic centre looks magnificent. A very enjoyable visit and looking forward to returning later in the year. Hants & IoW Masons Jersey Freemasons

Happy birthday to His Majesty King Charles. The Prince and Princess of Wales

A beautiful location for a Provincial Grand Lodge Annual Meeting. Lovely to be with the members of the Province of Gloucestershire. Hants & IoW Masons

The morning after the night before. An absolutely superb Installation meeting last night saw a full house (100+) witness the Induction of Gary Shirley into the Chair of KS. Installing Master Drew Delisle did a fantastic job, ably assisted by his team. If Carlsberg did Freemasonry

Curry night is tonight! Still time to join us. Come along for a chat. images.app.goo.gl/bnnrBay9pZ6nnq…

Now that was an eventful but eventually disappointing attempt at attending an official visit on the Isle of Wight. Defeated by the weather. The mainland team, down but never out. Back at Southampton.
