Further to the interesting and varied comments on the page about Arnie’s skull and crossbones belt buckle, it struck me that I’ve unconsciously performed the same handshake when reaching over water or a ditch, etc. Didn’t do an exhaustive check but couldn’t find any record of Ian Kiernan being a freemason.
