Cumberland and Westmorland |
| The Deputy Provincial Grand Master had a surprise for the PGM as they were booked in to the Cumberland and Westmorland PGL meeting at Carlisle Racecourse. |

 |
| Geoff’s friend John owns the fabulous Wedding and Events venue Beeston Manor at Houghton near Preston. He is also the pilot of the Manor’s corporate helicopter. |
 |
 |
 |
| Geoff arranged for John to act as aerial chauffeur for the trip up to Carlisle. |
| In near perfect weather the flight took off from Beeston Manor’s helipad and headed North on the 42 minute fight ( 1hr 35 mins by car). |
 |
 |
 |
| The scenery was breathtaking on the trip which skirted the South Lake District and touched down to much interest from other assembled Provincial Grand Masters who surveyed the landing from the Grand Stand balcony. |
Many thanks to John for his services, a very interesting and speedy way to travel |
