Detail:
I write this from the medtical wing, for this day was so epic i have been in an awsome coma since. My mind recalls Jedi pursits in Audi convertibles and bumper cars. Snow troopers wrestling with snakes. Spec Ops danceing to Lady GaGa. Cutter putting the wrath of vader to some obnoxious teenager. Buliding strong holds out of cardbord and of course so many younglings......this is indigo.

I arrived at 10.00hours, my fellow troopers had secured the area at 09.00hour only to find out this event was not due to start till 12.00 hours. Tirili took this opportunity barter with the locals for nourishment of cakes and bisicuts. While back in our air conditioned Zone a fallback 'fort' was erected from cardbord boxes.

11.30hours we set to spread the word of the empire. We admired many trinkets and cuisine on offer at the stalls. There was blow up castels and a animal contament area, (the calf was so cute). Our Spec Ops Trooper Hopfot was over taken by hipnotic pop music and was dancing like a Twi'lek trying to please Jabba himself.

My mind is weary. i cant quite remember the times of the events ahead. i believe Mel and Draco left to put there Jawa down for a nap after midday. Trooper Beanie arrived to take over there position.

Later Rebel scum where seen stealing an convertable Audi. With the help of the local law we had the trecious Qin Sri in custody (order 66). The officers offered the use of the vehicles. I was able to sit down in the persuit car but was not able to fit my head in. Even with the help of Hopfot.

Tradition at this event was to 'slime' teachers. The vice principal of this learning facility was non complyant to this and had to be escorted to this event. She put up quite a fight but was over come by the empire.

The wildlife at this event was also a concern. while studying pythons troopers Beanie and Hopfot were in mortal combat with these creatures. The snakes were soon subdued and used to raise further currency.

Qui Sri had escaped during the skirmsh with the snakes but her tricks did not work on us. We commandeered bummper cars and continued this dramatic chase. I can tell you i dont remember being trained for this at the academy.

As night fell we de-armored and Cobra join us for the celebrations of a successful mission. The fireworks were a pleasant sight as we left this event for a steak dinner and ice cream. It was later decided that because of his greatness i Jimcricket would write up this report.

I believe that is all i can recall of this mission i must sign off now. I must rest the awsomeness still plagues my mind.

Charity Funds Raised:
$175.55

Injuries:
None

Malfunctions:
while enjoying a burger i found out that BBQ sauce make good weathering.

Public Incidents:
During the day this clone was approached by a youngling asking where his master was. After informing him it was Lord Vaders day off. He then told me he ment the jedi (tirili) Eek. supose he was right i was wearing the helmet of pre order 66 troopers.

Mission Status:
Was a grea day out. The school loved our hijinks. Will have to say it was a success. Would also like to mention that Tirilia got us a table for 7 at hogsbreath on a busy sat night. All we had to do was bring up show off our buckets. Nice work Liz.

RE: indigo fair - The Scotsman - Tuesday 2-Aug-2011

Good one, Troopers.


RE: indigo fair - Draco - Tuesday 2-Aug-2011

I had fun for the one hour of trooping and the three hours of sitting around chatting.
I wish we could have stayed longer. Sounds like you had a blast.
The free nachos was good. And who was that good looking guy in the muscle suit?




RE: indigo fair - Bossy - Tuesday 2-Aug-2011

Yes, who was that mysterious man in the muscle suit? Maybe Tiri knows? ROFL!!

This was a really good troop. Pretty relaxed, good weather, free food, mostly good behaviour from the public, free dodgems, no malfunctions unless you count spilled BBQ sauce, walking distance to my house and topped off with fireworks and a great dinner.


RE: indigo fair - SideshowMel - Tuesday 2-Aug-2011

Who wears a muscle suit under their armour?


RE: indigo fair - hopfot - Tuesday 2-Aug-2011

Tiri knows :P
