The suspects

Rosters for the first cluster of Mystery Trips are as follows:
Greg Wamsley
 Strengths:
·         Trip planner extraordinaire & attention to detail
·         Misdirection specialist
Weaknesses:
·         Could be bribed with shockingly small amounts of peanut butter.
·         Has experienced complete personality changes (aka ‘New Greg) as a result of  previous trips.  This is an obvious risk.
Ashley Jakobi
Strengths:
·         More aggressive than a honey badger
·         Quiet demeanour makes for the ideal Mystery Trip planner – no chance info will get leaked
Weaknesses:
·         Known to go out on the town the night before important Mystery Trips – this is a liability
·         Lack of experience in mystery tripping compared to other participants.  She’s a rookie.
Tom Benson
Strengths:
·         Speaks Italian (hint: this will come in handy for one of the first trips).
·         Willingness to go anywhere, do anything, eat anything, sleep anywhere.
Weaknesses:
·         Also known for personality swings on trips.  Dick Tom has made more than one appearance.
·         Fear of onions (this will be an issue when the next trip is to Elba, NY – look it up).
Danielle D’Lima
Strengths:
·         Speaks French (although not Parisian French so let’s not go there).
·         Enthusiasm for all activities despite weather conditions
Weaknesses:
·         Sandwiches – a trip can go off the rails without sufficient number of sandwiches.
·         Falls asleep within minutes of being on any mode of transport.
Colin Freeman
Strengths:
·         Willingness to be blindfolded in all situations.  Yes, I said it.
·         Open minded (aka willing to try new beers).
Weaknesses:
·         Refuses to be in same room as any conversation about Mystery Trips.
·         Sweats profusely when flying.
