Robert, 

My sincere congratulations to yourself and all the brethren of 1060 on a very successful and enjoyable day. The work and effort expended by all at 1060 over the past few years, to make Saturday 5th September 2009, so memorable for all present, is exceptional and reaped its reward today.
 
I would like to complement you personally on the way you carried out your duties. You are a great credit and asset to your lodge. You are also a very fortunate man to have been so involved in such a historical and momentous occasion and to have had such a major part in its success.
You deserve every praise and again well done.
 
I thank you for the great honour you paid me in allowing me to speak and being some part of your 100th  birthday celebrations. I assure you Saturday 5th September will remain indelible in my memory and will be remembered with fondness as one of my best days as RWM of 86.
 
I hope 1060 goes from success to success in the years to come and that the bond between our respective lodges continues to strengthen.
I look forward to your visit to 86 and will endeavour to make your visit an enjoyable occasion.
 
Again thanks and congratulations to yourself and all at 1060.
 
Jimmy Gourlay
