A whistle stop visit by the President of the United
States has passed off without incident, government sources
report today.
|
An unexpected visit by the American president took everyone
in the Grid by surprise, especially when Harry got a tip off
from the French that there was more to the visit than met
the eye. Ruth’s information seemed to back up the idea
that plans were afoot to hold a secret meeting with the Libyans.
|
Christine Dale swept in with her CIA team and announced,
despite protocol, that they were in charge of security for
the visit. They wanted unprecedented access to MI5 documents
and when they said jump Tom and the team were to jump. Tom
agreed to let Christine have her way as a personal favour.
|
Tom started receiving strange phone calls, and he became
seriously concerned when he started being approached by strange
men in the street who seemed to know him. It turned out Vicky
had decided to get even by posting postcards, advertising
his ‘services’ all around London. When Christine
found out this spat was putting her operation in danger, she
took matters into her own hands, and, along with her CIA team,
gave Vicky the heavy treatment.
|
The president’s visit took a mysterious turn when
he veered away from schedule. Christine made up an unconvincing
cover story, but it was clear the secret meeting with the
Libyans was happening. Luckily the team were on top of things,
and had struck their own deal with the Libyans first. Despite
a close call with a misguided microlight, the visit passed
off smoothly, and Tom and Christine were able to get together
for a late-night ‘debriefing’.
