We were encouraged to get involved with the days activities and rattle the tins for photo opportunities with the patrons. Gold coin donations were in order as gold is the charities colour.

This is where a trial troop is invaluable, before final approval.
Disco now unequivocally knows, he has an issue with a loose cod strap. It must have come undone at least a dozen times. Lol.
"I have never seen such devotion in a wrangler before"
At the end of a long hard Fete, there is nothing more a Trooper likes, than to kick back in an air conditioned staff room on a recliner.

Mission a complete success.
A big thank you to the troopers, and an even bigger thank you to the support crew Squirtle and Nesath for controlling every situation, these boys were well and truly hands on.

Nice pictures. Thanks for sharing.
RE: St Dympnas Primary school fete - Disco - Thursday 17-Sep-2015
Hey - "Bev" here - back from holiday so glad to see the pics of Squirtle and Nesal getting hands on with my gear - as embarrassing as it was/is it did make me aware of a couple of things I need to adjust on my armour - very grateful to the guys for going below and beyond to help me out. Aside from that, it was so great to finally wear the armour in a troop after working on it for so long, especially along such pro's as Sly, Altair and Slide Effect - thanks for letting me be a part of the troop and I can't wait to get approved to do it all over again. Minus the crotch fiddling.
