Spylets - briefing 4 U

Greetings SPI team, my united spyletti,

An eagle-eyed spylet among you pointed out that many of you are operating in DANGEROUS LOCATIONS ie a bedroom in peril of infiltration by brothers, cousins, other siblings, parents, and even enemy spies ...

So it seems I have a bit of SPI:KE work to do. Let me remind you how to spy-proof your room, dudes and dudettes. To the Nosy Ones, it will look as though you're cleaning. If that will be too big a shockety-shock for the old people in your life, tell them you've lost something and you are fully intending to leave all the mess on the floor. Then they'll make you do it anyway ... And only you will know that you are protecting yourself from enemy spy activities! Crikey, that thought is so brilliant I am in need a lie down and a doughnut or two.

Anyway Shmanyway, spy-proofing:

MIRROR - lick your finger and leave a track across the mirror with it. It should disappear unless your mirror is yuck with dirt. Then breathe on it. The track should reappear. This is useful for three things - one, if someone unwanted has been in your room you''ll be able to see if the saliva track is visible; two, you can leave an invisible message for another spylet to pick up; and three, you can see if your mirror is dirty and needs a proper cleaning.

FINGERPRINTS - sprinkle talcum powder on any shiny hard surface in your room if you suspect someone's touched something. Their fingerprints can then be lifted off with sticky tape which you put on dark paper so you can see them properly. And keep a record of your own fingerprints then you'll know if they are somebody else's. Cunning, eh?

USE YOUR PENCIL - draw a faint line down a stack of books, and then you'll know if someone's moved it. Do the same with your drawers - COME ON, SPYLETS! It's not as if you ever close them properly, is it?!! You can use this trick to note the position of anything in the room, only don't try it on the cat. If it's anything like Trouble, he'll just go and move and muck everything up.

AND THE LAST TRICK OF ALL >>>

Oh, Jumping Janeys, I've forgotten it. What was it? Need some sugar for my brain power ... sugar ... sugary sugar ...

Oh darn. Well, here's an idea, Spylets. This enemy spy who calls herself Jill Marshall has been stealing all my ideas and tales of SPI life and writing about my own Zany Janey. I bet she noted down what the last spy-proofing trick was ... in fact ... yes, yes she did ... in Jane Blonde: Twice the Spylet.

If you find it, my spiffly young spies, let me know, will you? And you can keep the other spylets informed at the same time.

Off to De-Wow. Oh Yeah. Come on, say it with me:

De-code, de-brief, de-wow. Oh yeah.
De-code, de-brief, de-wow. Oh yeah!

Laters,
