Oct.2010 extract from email, James Lockwood,
London
Hello there, I happened upon your fine website and, whilst reading
the pages, I noticed you mention a bloke called Ronnie, now living in
London. The Orange Order in London finds that brethren (and sisters)
from elsewhere in the UK don't realise we exist, so if this bloke or any
friends of his are interested in getting in touch with us, please let us
know. I suspect someone from LOL 1689 was in touch with you back in
2007. We are particularly keen to hear from anyone wishing to
reactivate their membership and transfer 'down south'.
Thanks, James Lockwood, WM, LOL 779 |
