People are fascinated by the secret services and spies as can be seen in the success of TV and Film such as James Bond. In providing its invaluable service to the community the ¿dave project? cannot fail but to tap into this interest and give the public a taste of what espionage is all about. We know where you live*.........
Note: You really need to visualize these to get what they are all about. *If you happen to live at No. 22 Queens Rd, Cheadle-Hulme.
Confusionisms
¿>Secret meeting in progess []
Get as many people as you can to walk along a busy street and approach a door, looking cospiritorialy around they should knock on the door and mumble something. The door then opens and they enter. Repeat this again and again. (try getting everyone to come in out of place disguises) ¿>Resevoir Violinists []
Walk through your town accompanied by two other people all of you wearing long black trench coats, dark sunglasses and carrying violin cases (make sure you keep in step). Stop in the middle of the street, look around suspiciously, then get out your violins and start to play. ¿>Get Down []
Walking down a street suddenly yell "Get Down!" and throw yourself to the floor. After a short pause and when you are sure nearly everyone has looked away again, get up, dust yourself off and walk away. ¿>On film []
Wearing a pair of thick framed glasses look up at someone and push down on the glasses arm making a clicking noise at the same time. ¿>Listening in []
Sit in a hotel lobby wearing a pair of headphones and holding a brief case under your arm that has an over obvious microphone protruding directed at the reception. ¿>The Swap []
Take a briefcase/nice looking bag to the street and wear shades. Get a friend to do this too. Walk into the middle of the road and drop the bag for a minute. Walk away. Now your friend walks in and takes the bag, leaving HIS bag. You walk in and take his bag. YOU'VE SWAPPED! ¿>You saw nothing! []
Wearing typical 'agent Smith' garb knock on the door of a house just after the refuse collection has passed and inform the occupant that they did not just witness the rubbish collection and no one saw it. Tell them 'they must not tell a word of what they saw to anyone' ¿>Bugging you? []
When entering someone else house run your fingers under all the tables in inside lamp shades to 'check for bugs' ¿>Playing the cards right? []
Wearing a investigator style trench coat knock on someone's door and show them an ID card, look down at it and realize that is is really a membership card for the kids club. Looking shocked fumble in your wallet to find the right card. Give up, turn and run to waiting car with blacked out windows. ¿>Red eye reduction? []
Wear an obtrusively unobtrusive hat with a cord dangling from one side. Look towards someone and pull the cord, at the same time setting off a flash gun. On the flash shout "Damm!" and run away. ¿>Camera 1. []
Walk through another hotel lobby this time with a video camera spuriously disguised as a bag carried in one hand. Occasionally pause and appear to aim the video camera at someone with the bag very obviously following their movement with the camera. ¿>Listening devices. []
Whenever anyone comes round to talk to you turn your shower, washing machine, radio etc. on and insist on whispering. As they talk look distracted and suspiciously look through a gap in the curtains.
Practical Jokes
¿>Paintball 187 []
You basically need 2 or more people, one of course to drive and one or more to control the weapons. You need to get your hands on an automaticly firing BB/Paintball gun. You then dress in a suit with dark glasses on and get in a car (prefebly with blacked out windows) and head towards the nearest bus stop. You then wind down the window and scream "you mess with my family, you mess with me!" and then let rip with the paintball gun. Then burn it off down the street. Leaving your friends at the bus stop paintball soaked
