      Meyer sets form an important class of point sets that can be considered as generalisations of lattices. They have recently been studied in connection with mathematical models of quasicrystals. One possibility to define special classes of Meyer sets with entropy is via random inflation rules. In this paper, the author shows that the logarithm of the growth rate of the size of the set of inflated generalised random Fibonacci words equals the topological entropy of the generalised random Fibonacci sequence.
