On Monday 5th October I attended my Preceptory St. Mungo for the AGM there were a few people missing but it was still a good attendance I was voted into the Office of Constable which is 3 offices away from the chair which I will not be going for anytime soon as I lack the required experience at present. As this is the first office I have held in the Preceptory but it not an active office so I have the opportunity to learn the way the Preceptory works. It was a good harmony with no raffles coming to me again
On Saturday 3rd October I along with members of St. John No 257 attended Stirling Rock RAC No 2 for the installation of Office bearers it was a 2 o’clock start where after the chapter was opened and the usual business as all in attendance were past principals they installed the 3rd Principal the chapter afterwards the chapter was adjourned. we had to wait till 4:30pm for the chapter to be resumed after the rest of the office bearers turned up the meeting finished about 5:15 due to time constraints we had to leave as some had to be back for 6pm which they were
It was nice to see some old faces and catch up with them
