inspired by Fandango’s One Word Challenge (FOWC) of 9 August 2021, clandestine.
When I first went along to the Masons,
Gave the top man the secret handshake,
He retreated, inflamed,
And said “Oi, what’s your game?”
Then I realised there’d been some mistake.


I take it you went to the wrong group.

You’re supposed to do the Fortnum handshake followed by the Mason handshake. 😆

I was a Mason for some years, My lodge was affiliated with a very old Scottish Lodge, and when I was installed as Master of the lodge we had our normal semi-public installation. The Scottish wives learned more about Masonry in one evening than their husbands had ever told them. One fraternity, very different takes on secrecy.

I always wondered if the Masons we really Templars in disguise. Perhaps that’s where the handshake went wrong!
