Welcome to the LODAG Website!
LoDAG (pronounced Loe-Dag) is an acronym for the League of Distinctly Average Gentlemen. The League was formed by a group of like-minded individuals in February 2008
(see History), and its members continue to meet once a month.
The aim of the League is to promote as best it can Gentlemanly conduct throughout the world (see Philosophy).
The next meeting is to be held on Friday 6th January 2012 at the usual time of 8pm (ish) at the Retreat pub in Reading.
The last meetings minutes are now available in the download section.
We are still looking for any new articles, reviews, thoughts, poems, songs etc to be published on the LoDAG website. This is where you fellow Gentlemen will have to pitch in!
Please send anything you would like to submit for publication on the website to general@lodag.org, or use the
contact page!
I am hoping to get a message facility up and running soon. Also, we now have the capability of e-mail addresses, anyone who wants one please again send an e-mail to the general account and I will set it up for you.

There can be no doubt in our minds that Gentleman Burgon was certainly a great President, and that the League has benefitted greatly from his fine leadership. Gentleman Burgon played a pivotal role in establishing the League as an international organisation to be taken seriously, initiating the drawing up of the League Constitution, and overseeing a period of growth and maturation for the League and its members. Indeed, it is Dave who is responsible for transforming the League from a simple idea, as conceived by our Founding Fathers, into a 'proper' organisation.
I am not a little daunted by the prospect of attempting to fill his shoes, to say the very least!
My election to the Presidency came one month before the United Kingdom's own General Election - an event which is likely to prove to be one the country's most significant political tide-changes in recent history. The outcome of General Election could also prove fairly interesting... Read More...
