The most worrying thing is the amount of police in the Masons..........where I grew up, the local psycho's dad was a Mason, so you've guessed it......no matter what hideous ultra violence this prick dished out on a whim, he was out of nick in no time haha.....

Like me, I am sure there are plenty of Catholics on this forum.....and also like me, I am sure they will be chuffed to bits at your sweeping statement. Try putting your f***ing brain in gear before y

Jimmy Savile done a lot of work for charity.

I think so. Can I apply for the official position? We can even have a vote after the summing up....

ive had an invite, but don't think I can afford it! lol not my cup of tea anyway

They must be low on members to invite you ant haha. I know a man who is one and he was fiddleing the books at a wholesale food company so he was getting free food for his hotel he did get found out but it some how got brushed under the carpet because he was a member so i heard.

My old dad was a Buff, and so am I. (That's "Buff" with a "B" !). Royal Antedeluvian Order of Buffaloes....

They're similar to the Masons, in that both DO raise and donate large amounts to charity, but neither of them are little more than Old Boy's networks. Word of warning....being a Mason can be costly !

The both have daft little initiation ceremonies,but they're just old traditions, symbolic really. The handshakes and passwords are for real - members use them to identify themselves, and you can be kicked out for revealing them !

My grandad was an Oddfellow, but that's another story.......

(My signature is the RAOB motto..........which is nice!)

Growing up, I always thought the Buffaloes were sort of reject Masons...

There was a Buff's club on our lane, which had great social nights that my parents would go to quite often. Many around our streets were Buffaloes. You knew when you went into the houses and seen the broken clay pipe on a pipe stand on the mantle or sideboard. It always took pride of place. My dad never joined and he never lived long enough for me to ask why...

Yes. My dad used to say "the poor man's Masons". Used to be really big in the industrial towns and cities, but sadly in decline now. Can't remember the last time I met another Brother..... Edited by Blackbriar

If you want to give monwy to charity why do you need to be a member of some group? Guessing the funny handshakes gets stuff done for businesses or price reductions. Like everything no doubt their are people at top doing better from it than others.

 

The first secret societies began life as small warrior clans (the Templar Knights for instance). Later, trade organisations were formed, to promote their own protectionist or political agendas (Worshipful Company of Butcher's etc). Religious societies are self-explanatory.

 

Today, the Masons are still represented in the echelons of Government and finance, but the Buffs are in decline, unfortunately.

Sounds like a great networking opportunity. If offered/invited, I would definitely sieze the chance with both hands!

That's what it's all about, my mates doing very well out of it........if you're that way inclined, it's perfect. They wouldn't interest me & I most certainly wouldn't interest them haha.....
