Tivoli Libris Lodge

Book Group Lodge meeting five times a year in London. Our dinners after, at which we discuss books, are very warmly open to all.

Our lodge (and secretary) got a very kind tiny mention in this issue of Arena, the @MetGrandLodge magazine.

About his work with @stjohnambulance, in the Coronavirus relief effort.

We've given him an iron to spruce up his uniform a bit.

Happy birthday brethren. 303 and you don't look a day over 300.

@RyanWil11923403 I was so awfully sorry to hear this. I wrote for him at FMT, and knew him also socially. He always was lovely, and he will be much missed by many. - Paddy

A wonderful read - in the light in which it portrays us, also in nicely capturing our sense of humour. ‘There is The Da Vinci Code’ sighs a freemason from Lincolnshire, ‘But much to my disappointment, it’s mainly about making yourself a better person.’

Just when you thought the world couldn’t get any worse, I realise the second episode of my podcast. Father Ted Talks Episode 2: Reading James Joyce in quarantine. 🤓📗 https://t.co/be0QwSE86v

Reading James Joyce during Coronavirus. By Pádraig and Carlotta.

On 20th April, when ordinarily we would have met, we will gather on Zoom for a chat about life and books. And at 9 pm, lift a glass to all those who now are poor and distressed.

[Tivoli Libris Lodge @TLL2150]

We will all be attending this and have in fact added our very own dance number remixes of:

Deacon Blues
Hammer Time
and Knock knock knockin’ on heaven’s door.

#lockdownUK is a great opportunity to take a leaf out of the book of @TLL2150 and finish that work you've always wanted to read. Share your review with Lodge members by conference or video call.
'What is the use of a book', thought Alice, 'without pictures or conversations?'

We host an annual charity dinner, for London literacy charities, where a young prize-winning author gives their Desert Island Discs.

Our lovely 2018 castaway, Daisy Buchanan @NotRollergirl, is presenting Radio 3 Classical Live right now:

So our friends have all been sharing their Quarantine reading lists. And meeting up on WhatsApp nightly at 9 pm to share a glass.

Just looking back over the last year!

* We donated £1,350 to charity.
* Installed our 5th Master (post-2015 reconstitution)
* Initiated 3 excellent chaps, passed 3 more.
* Saw our membership reach 28, with 5 prospectives in the offing.
* And had a jolly excellent time doing it.

At the going down of the sun and in the morning.

We will remember them.
