Douglas Thomson PM - Lodge Instruction Master

I was initiated in February 1979, along with an old school friend Jim Murphy and two others. Lodge Toryglen was not the most obvious lodge for me to join, as my father was a member of Lodge St Andrew 465, however Jim's next door neighbour was a lovable old codger called George Cameron who was a founder member of the lodge and following a meeting in George's house along with Tommy Anderson PM who was to second us, we were on our way. Both of the afore mentioned gentlemen are now deceased but they played a big part in one of my better decisions in life, some of the brethren may be interested to know that my PM's jewel is in fact  the late Tommy Anderson's, much to the displeasure of one of the other PM's as it's much better than his!! (You know who you are!). During the intervening 25 years I have enjoyed countless (Rosalind will testify) nights in Freemasonry and I have every intention of  carrying on whilst I've still got breath.
