The drinking started 8am on Friday and continued almost non-stop till Monday afternoon (Reaching some kind of crescendo at about 3am Monday in a cloud of cigar smoke and a blur of tequila). In between we flew to Leipzig in East Germany, gave three presentations, performed a few experimental "actions" for the Leipzig CCTV operators and lost one of our agents in a car accident. It was the usual Space Hijacker field trip.
Our gang had been invited to Leipzig by Leipziger Kamera to help them "celebrate" 10 years of CCTV in Leipzig. It was the first time anyone has ever made posters announcing that the Hijackers were coming to town, and we did our best to live up to our reputation.
Since the general theme of the trip was surveillance, and our hosts did not actually know us, we thought we would play a little game or spies. Undecided (the agent we lost in the car accident) and I arranged separate transport from the airport and our own special accommodation. Dressed in black, we left the "Hijackers" to get picked up and taken to their base - while we watched and took photos from a distance. When we arrived at the talks that night, well, people got a little nervous.
