So I've been elected and installed into the third principal's chair in my mother chapter, for the second time -- the first time was in May 2002. On that occasion, I proceeded to spend a year as J and a year as H, and then I stood down because at the time of the elections it seemed likely that I'd be moving to the USA.
This time round, if everything goes to plan I have a year in the chair of J (third principal), a year in the chair of H (second principal), and then in May 2010 I'll get installed in the chair of MEZ (first principal), putting me in charge of the chapter -- and in receipt of the highest honour a private chapter can confer.
Still no word on what's going to happen with that other election, which might well leave a vacancy for the post of MP for Henley.
