A.B.Yaffle 01-09-2006, 20:25 There's one near Crosspool. I knew someone who served in the bar there a few years ago, and she told me the members were all quite scary and strange!

that pic shows a caucasian looking fella
last i heard, if jesus did exist he was from palestine and therefore would likely have looked like a palestinian
carcrash 01-09-2006, 21:02 The Red Lion? Really
It's going back a few years but the big room at the back was some sort of lodge, not sure if it masonic or one of the other orders

downtroad 01-09-2006, 21:13 lol that's before he went into the fast food business
Food and wine, my friend, food and wine. ;)
Good man Jesus, you could always count on him to whip up some fish and wine when you ran out.
downtroad 01-09-2006, 21:15 So you can drink at these Mason events? Do you get a discount?
hagardriley 01-09-2006, 21:38 There's one on dore lane, one at crosspool, the red lion on heeley bottom was a lodge in the past.
It's on Dore Road actually, at the very bottom on the left as you go up. I know a senior member of staff from the one at Crosspool and he says the members are all pretty normal individuals as far as he can tell. :surprised
On the other hand, the father of someone who married into my family is a Mason (probably got in because he is a fairly senior civil servant in the area) and the bloke is an utter & complete a******e in every respect. :rolleyes:
Collywobs 03-09-2006, 16:24 Sorry for this, but what are Masons?

They are a secret organisation that does each other favours.
If ever a mason for instance is introuble with the Law, he will be let off, as all the top coppers and JP's etc are on the square.
It was originally a trade organisation to keep the skill of stone masonry secret.

Thanks for that Artisan. I have often heard people talking about the masons, but never really understood. Do they do a funny handshake or something?

No one knows for sure, unless they are a mason. But they do have a way of greeting each other so they know what company the are in.

I was led to believe that it was the old medical collage to do with leopold street. As this is what i read from the old history books of sheffield and we did it in school. I still have the books about this and will try and find the page, get it printed out and post it.

There is a Free Mason Hall up at Broomhall, it is the Masonic Hall up at Tapton hall just up Manchester road and the house was owned by
THE FLORANCE NIGHTINGALE FAMILY.
El-Mariachi 04-09-2006, 09:54 Being a member of the Freemasons is no different to being a member of a Golf Club.
I know a member and he's a really nice chap (no horns on his head and no devil worshipping etc).

Nonsense !
Boy you are consistent at talking utter rubbish (across most threads)
As usual, I'm sure you'll back up your assertions with this little things called "evidence" !
