MICA Travels are a group of family and friends that are dedicated to raise awareness of Bile duct cancer and sepsis, two illnesses that claim 1000’s of lives each year and are barely known about. I lost my wife; our sons lost their mother and many others lost a dear friend. We as group will be doing a series of endurance activities to raise money for these charities as a lasting memorial to Carol, so that our sudden loss is not in vain.

24 Hour Charity Gaming Stream

Posted in Our Fundraising Journey by Peter Hall
Charity Stream

This Saturday (27th March 2021) my friend Ryan and I will be doing our 24 hour gaming challenge!

We are starting at 10:00 and ploughing through to 11:00 on Sunday (we forgot that the clocks go forward so we need to add in the extra hour!)

You can follow our challenge on my Twitch channel https://twitch.tv/nsrrulez
If you have an account please follow the channel and say hi in the stream chat.

I am planning on answering any questions people may have about the charities, the conditions or my reasons for doing the challenge or my reasons for creating MICA Travels with the family.

We will be running to a schedule so if you are interested (or even if you know about Destiny 2) then please see below:

10:00: Deep Stone Crypt Raid
11:30: Battlegrounds
12:30: Deep Stone Crypt Raid
14:00: Garden Of Salvation Raid
15:30: Battlegrounds
16:30: Deep Stone Crypt Raid
18:00: To be decided by a Spin Wheel
19:00: Deep Stone Crypt Raid
20:30: To be decided by a Spin Wheel
21:30: Deep Stone Crypt Raid
23:00: Trials of Osiris
00:30: until 11:00 will all be decided by the spin wheel*

Donations can be made to do the following:
You can donate for us to help you out with something in game
For a raid carry or first time clear with a LFG with experience at DSC
To decide on what weapons we have to use during a certain game mode
To decide what game mode we play on any of the sections above with spin wheel slots
To decide what sub-classes we must run
To show some support without tormenting us in the likes of trials or iron banner by picking bows as our weapons

This will be a mentally taxing day and any help you can give by donating to https://uk.virginmoneygiving.com/MICATravels will be so appreciated!

If you donate please just pop a note in the comments box saying Gaming challenge so I can get a total raised from this event!

Hope to see some of you say hello in the chat!

As they say in Destiny

Eyes up Guardian!

Laybower reservoir walk

Ladybower Reservoir walk.

Well this was an epic walk around Ladybower and Derwent Dam, it started off as a bright but chilly and windy day with weather warnings of gales travelling south, but for our expedition, it was just right for a walk, sheltered and no rain, however, it turned into an epic adventure in the end.

We drove to the Fairholmes visitor centre set just in front of one of the famous...

CONTEXT AND PERSPECTIVE

I live a life in the form of a split personality, a “Jekyll and Hyde” of sorts. I’m getting good at flicking between these two personalities, but in real life Mr. Jekyll only wants to keep you focussed on the past with only one perspective, a very narrow vanishing point, like looking down a train track, where your past extends along the track for as far as you can see, li...
