Detail: On arrival at the building (7.30) I was greeted by Lizzy from the 4GR morning crew who had organised this. She showed me where we were to get changed and then I waited for EE to arrive.
When EE arrived, we went to the "Board Room" and changed into our gear. About 8 am we were ushered to a holding area whilst Hamish was doing the news and weather. He had no clue that anyone in the building even knew he had turned 40, so when 2 stormtroopers burst into the room carrying an R2D2 cake, he was somewhat surprised.
For a guy that makes a living by talking, he was lost for words.
His co host EJ was in on the surprise and had organised for his wife to be there as well.
The cake was presented and he was given a Redback lapel badge by myself. He loved the cake but I am told he is even more stoked about receiving the badge from us.
Photos were taken and then we had to leave as he had to catch up with his duties..we had delayed him somewhat.Peace
The whole exercise had only taken about 1 hr from arrival to departure.
EE and I went back to the Board room to collect our gear only to find that management had started a meeting..lets just say there were a few "What the.." looks as we entered and got our gear and left to change else where.


Charity Funds Raised: Nil but we do have lots of big favours owing to us from both stations and we will be able to call on them in the future for free promos.

Injuries: Nil

Malfunctions: Nil

Public Incidents: Surprised Hamish's bosses

Mission Status: Completed
