Spying games...

Post: # 1536176Post saintbrat »

Following Tony's mention last week this article caught my attention this morning

We had an opposition spy across the road in the bowls club pretending to be part of the Seaford Bowling Club. Problem was he had no bowls, had binoculars and the club wasn't open!!

it's ana greeement almost certain to fail isn't it
HONOUR AMONG SPIES
*Opposition spies, or scouts, are allowed to attend open training sessions
*Opposition spies are allowed to take notes but not record the sessions electronically
*If caught breaking the rules, the spy will be evicted
*Spies are expected to identify themselves when confronted
*Opposition spies, just as the public, are not allowed to watch closed training sessions, regardless of the location

So the public can't watch a closed training session on an oval that is not fenced off and therefore a public area? Is this the nanny state or what?


As ex-president Peter Summers said:
“If we are going to be a contender, we may as well plan to win the bloody thing.”

Pretend to be blind. Have your guide dog and dark glasses on. Have a camera mounted inside one of the lenses. Problem solved!

How is it the nanny state? Is the government making laws about this now?

Was having a kick at Seaford today and was talking to my mate, considering it is a public oval, can the club actually kick you off the oval when they want to train? We weren't so sure. Obviously you would think most people would get off but still.. I don't see how Closed training sessions mean anything for us.. There is a public walk track on both sides of the oval so you could watch anything really..
