Snippet: The call from the picture editor on The Australian came early on a Tuesday. Not unusual, but the pictorial brief was to photograph inside the Freemasons’ Grand Lodge in the centre of Sydney, drawing back the veil of secrecy around the organisation which features in Dan Brown’s new book, The Lost Symbol.

I’m not a fan of Dan Brown, nor do I profess to be Freemansony. I knew very little about the subject when I walked into the lift at the Freemasons United Grand Lodge. I knew that with Freemasons there were handshakes, secret passwords, aprons and something to do with architecture.

Of course, most of it was about the technicalities of his photography, but I chuckled at "Accompanied by a reporter, we arrived to be met by a handful of members from the NSW chapter". What - no Brethren from the E taking note? :) Still, budding Candidates will be glad they don't have to learn Latin. PM 5770 Middlesex
