At our October white table event we welcomed Paul Harman, former Royal Navy engineer and Royal Yatchman. Paul entertained the members of Richard Collyer Lodge, visiting masons from across Sussex and visitors, with snippets and anecdotes from his time serving on HMY Britannia. It was thoroughly entertaining to hear about his personal interactions with the Royal Family and what went on on board when they were ashore. After the presentation, masons their families and guests, 55 in total, enjoyed a round table dinner with conversation and donated £400 in a charity raffle.
