PGM's visit to Bispham with Norbreck |
13th November 2015 |
| The Provincial Grand Master paid a visit to W. Bro Tony Cross, Provincial Grand Junior Wardens Lodge, Bispham with Norbreck Lodge MMM No 886 on Friday 13th November and how the date proved poignant. |
| It was a very stormy evening and as V W Bro Terry West was arriving at Adelaide St Blackpool a huge gust of wind took him off his feet and blew him down the steps of the hall. |
| He suffered a very badly cut head and as ex-rays showed a badly bruised hip and leg, after being taken by ambulance to hospital at Blackpool. |
| W Bro Mel Cross, father of PrGJW Tony, selflessly offered to accompany Terry to hospital and stayed with him for the four hours at A&E, until at his own insistence, Terry was discharged and went home. Mel returned to Adelaide St to catch the last toast of the evening, to absent Brethren. |
| Terry is making a slow and painful recovery as the bruising on his leg comes out and the dressing on his head will be on until later this week. |
| Many thanks to Mel Cross, true to his Mark pedigree, for his kind assistance. |
| PGM. |
