Another desperate call from a provisions warehouse resulted in a squad being despatched to New Brighton on the Wirral. The day started as per the standard operating procedure and we arrived under the radar as members of the local indigenous population. This meant we had to find a secure place to armour-up. This presented a suitable point to brand two new sets of armour!
Following the brief ceremony we ventured out into the provisions warehouse and Lord Vader had arranged for our real mission to be disguised as a security detail for the people collecting funds for the new Death Star. Most of the local inhabitants thought it was for a charity called Morte Sol or MS for short. Morte (Death) Sol (Star) which is a good cover!!
The local people gave generously and we were able to keep an eye out for the Rebel operatives that were supposed to be working in his area. There were a few unusual beings in this particular location and one was caught on camera. Jar Jar Binks....eat your heart out!
At one point we were asked to draw the raffle for the day. The winners were convinced they were winning wonderful prizes such as bottles of local alcohol, food hampers, confectionery, etc but when they arrive at the local Imperial outpost to 'collect' their winnings they will find out that they have been chosen to work on the construction or our illustrious new space station!!
The sun shone for part of the day and one of the squad thought it would be good to get a bit of a tan the others were improving their skills by practising their synchronised firing procedures! Still got a bit of work to do guys!!
Transmission ends............
Huge thanks to the squaddies! Gary, Alan, Simon, Jim and Jacqui. Thanks to the staff at Morrisons for letting us loose in their store and thanks to Karen Parsons and the rest of the crew of volunteers from the MS Society - Wirral Branch - and in an urgent update it has been announced that we raised £1232.26 on the day!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
