to recap....i can remember now...A.L. was reprogrammed as a 'cloud business exec slave' and ended up being bought by a company - who then relocated her to HONG KONG...

the CIA had had satellite cctv on the whole horror...so the 'shoot the guys in the cottage' was never going to be a problem from their side of things...the group at the monument appeared to be mainly from COI and numbered 'julie' as well as A.L....JUDE LAW was present - he also had a gun as well as tomlinson and they were better equipped than 'those at the cottage'...a bit like the guns that SP used to carry...heavy, silver guns with a long thin barrel....you could shoot from a far greater distance...and so once 'either gill or i'....julie and A.L. are sure that it was me...once the guys at the cottage could see that i wasn't going to tire myself out running down the road to catch them...and 'get shot' once in range...once they had realised that they wouldn't have a chance and that i would 'take my time'...they made off in the car, with their radio equipment in the back, behind them....anyway, the main upshot of this all is that the CIA were investigating what the royals were doing with their operatives....poaching, reprogramming and selling them on, as far as i can see....

and i can remember AL and JULIE laughing about it all afterwards...i had walked down the road, enjoying the country air....swinging the gun in my left hand...'like a maniac' they had figured...they were worried that a passing car might report me...well, firstly i had been told to test the weight of the gun...heavier than i was used to using - by the cia tannoy system...and reminded to hold on tight - in order to shoot twice and to be accurate....if the guys were still around when i got to the bottom of the road...secondly nobody would have arrested me that day....and you can guess why....SP were also 'watching' everything...thirdly i wasn't going to tire myself out by running down the road to 'get them'....and find myself within their range...i was going to take things in a very relaxed way....a bit like MR PUTIN during kgb shooting practice in poland - see previous notes upon his technique....but yes i can also see that my 'dress' was not appropriate....a stripey jumper, jeans and moccasins....hardly an MIB on an operation...so yes it all looked a bit 'mad' didn't it....small blonde walking down an English country road swinging a magnum, that sort of thing isn't normally seen in those parts - is it?...

well actually it wasn't a magnum and so sleek - you would hardly know it was a gun...very slim barrel - no sights at the end...no obvious markings....a very basic, smooth shape with no 'edges' to throw shadow - so we can say - very difficult to pick up on, at a distance....

anyway, i only got about 100 yards down the road before i could 'see' that the guys were leaving fast.....and so i turned back....LAW was already on his mobile telling whoever 'to that effect'...so you can see how tightly controlled, the entire operation was...the tannoy/satellite system....

although SP were to investigate later on and report 'no radio equipment' in the cottage...well, there wouldn't have been - would there? it had all gone into the back of their car...so we can also say that SP had no idea of what the CIA were up to, that day....
