Greetings & Salutations!

Wayne is a polymath who was born at a very early age and, quite impressively, has not died yet-something he considers to be a notable achievement.

He joined Freemasonry in 2006, the Holy Royal Arch in 2007, the S.R.I.A. in 2012, and the Ancient & Accepted Rite in 2013. In 2011, Wayne became the Master of Llannerch Lodge and has spent fourteen of the following fifteen years in one chair or another. His commitment to Masonry is extensive. He was a founding member of the Widows Sons North Wales chapter, served as the Provincial Webmaster for five years, the Assistant Provincial Mentor for five years, and was part of the Membership Pathways Team also for five years. Additionally, Wayne was an active member of the North Wales Association of Masonic Study for eight years,  as both a Speaker and committee member, he has also been giving talks across several provinces since 2017.

Wayne is also a fervent supporter of the Blood Bikes Wales charity, dedicating his time and effort to this vital cause, raising over £50,000 from talks and presentations.

Put simply Wayne is A Blood Biker, A CodeNinja, A Gamer, A Hacker, A Blogger, A Writer & Poet, A Speaker, A Freemason, A Rosicrucian, A Reader, A Spod, A Son, An Uncle, A Brother, A Man, AN INDIVIDUAL!

A busy Month

I have taken a step back from Freemasonry in North Wales for a simple reason. The rot in the system has become too obvious to ignore. Not the gentle moss that grows on an old stone wall, but the sort of creeping decay that makes you stop, fold your arms, and mutter...

Red or Blue Button

There is a question that is tearing the Internet apart, and no it is not about a dress and is it Black/Blue or White/Gold. It is:- Everyone on earth takes a private vote by pressing a red or blue button. If more than 50% of people press the blue button, everyone...

High Council 2026

I have returned from the SRIA High Council meeting with my mind humming like a golden hive in midsummer, every cell alive with ideas, symbols, and the soft crackle of revelation. There is something wonderfully absurd about it. Every year I think, surely this is the...

BBW – Masonic Open Day

Earlier today, I took a brief hiatus from haunting the digital wilds and shaking my metaphorical walking stick at the TikTok generation to wander down to the Maesgwyn Masonic Hall. Every now and then it’s good for a man to step out of the algorithmic shadows and...

VE Day (2026)

On this VE Day, I pause... as many of us do, to honour a generation who faced down the darkest storm the world had ever seen and still found the strength to rebuild, laugh again, and put the kettle on. It’s easy to romanticise history, to wrap it in sepia tones and...

Let Us Have a Chance of Change for a Change?

Today I went up into the hills to do something that actually matters for our collective future. I went to vote in what is undoubtedly the biggest and most important vote in our history as a nation. We are currently standing at a threshold where we have to decide if we...

BBW – May the Fourth be With You

A very happy Star Wars Day to all who celebrate the ancient Jedi tradition of doing the right thing even when it’s wildly inconvenient and involves travelling great distances with questionable navigation droids. And let’s be honest: if the Jedi were here in Wales...

The Cost of Progress – AKA Forced e-Waste

My poor old Kindle is about to be exiled to the wilds by Amazon, banished like some elderly hermit who has dared to outlive the fashions of the age. No more buying, no more downloading, no more anything. After years of loyal service, the little thing is being marched...

RIP Laz

Many, many years ago... Or in the early 90s when Spodding was a thing, I got chatting to some cool people in Aberystwyth University on Surfers, and the Pleasuredome. After ages of talking, they invited me down to visit.  Yes, children, in the days of "Stay away from...

BBW – Garden Village Fete – AKA Fun in the Sun

Suns out, Bikes out! Today was a glorious sunny and warm day, some would even call it a heat wave since that is what a lot of media types are saying. So what better to do than go along to the Garden Village Fete, with a load of Blood Bikes and enjoy the weather. It...

The End of an Era

The End of an Era

Today was the end of an era. I joined Wynnstay Chapter of the Holy Royal arch way back in 2007 when I took my fourth step in Freemasonry. And in the following 18(?) years I have only ever missed one meeting. That one missing meeting was due to a very rare clash, where...

Assistant Provincial Mentor (Retired)

Unfortunately the same person who forced me out of the Provincial Webmaster role so his wife could have the role, has now become the new Provincial Grand Master for North Wales.  This has led to multiple knives in my back which I will probably explain in a dedicated...
