THE RESCUE MISSION - DARKCITY SET OFF FOR SPAIN We the few who make up Darkcity, along with help from the Delta9 Crew, will be setting off from Ashton-Under-Lyne, driving down to Portsmouth and then travelling by ferry to Spain landing on 1st of July 2020. COMPASS ON ! The rescue mission involves us adventuring across the continent, in our Our New Path project has been hit by planning laws, funding issues and of course challenges due to current world affairs, but we transmute all of that and adapt to the change, we ride those waves and come back bigger, better and stronger. We will be going LIVE on Facebook and filming our progress to upload on Youtube. |
Together we can do anything
In just 3 days Matt and myself set of for Spain.. What's been called the rescue mission, its not the 1st time life has thrown the DC Crew a curved ball, I hope to hit this one as hard as we hit the previous ones.
Not a lot you can be serten on in today's world, as belief overturn facts, maths no longer add up, as meida spread fear world wide..
But You can be serten on one thing, we will rescue everything myself and Matt are totally committed to this mission. Its never easy going away from our loved ones and this is no holiday trip we'll have a lot of work to do, soon as we arrive moving everything in to storage taking the lab apart, taking down the building, loading up and driving back via the channel tunnel well over 5000 km once we are back in the UK.
We have 30 days to complete this mission. In 40 days the local planing office in Spain will pull the building down with everything in it and send us a bill
What happens next will is up to you.. If you don't feel part of what we all done over the years then this is your chance to get involved..if you do then it's play time again. We come from all walks of life with the same calling to simply do the right thing.. So don't think your not the type or this is nothing to do with you.. We are all in this together... We all need to do our bit from 10 minutes a day sharing with your friend to a lifetime of commitment.

Update star date June 2020... the Spanish run mark 2.. bigger better and stronger than we have ever been..we the few that make up the dark city along with help from delta9crew will be setting of to Spain by ferry from Portsmouth landing on the 1st of July...

We are going to need all the support we can get.. in more ways than i can remember, there so much to do it can become overwhelming..
Not a lot change, we have always needed land to start really taking the plunge we have all the parts, we just need to put them together and more so keep doing the work thats help so many around the world....
Lets not forget why we set of to Spain in the first place "the law in the UK was corrupted, the criminal justice system was crumbling in the hands of the CPS cannabis is not and was never harmful.. untill we see that change happen then we can only keep doing what we have done with the little we have as its simply the right thing to do...
helping others in need is needed ...
helping others to help them, is needed,
stopping the injustice is needed,
stopping the hurt is needed in mind body and spirit...
where we go and what we do will depend upon the support over the next few weeks... the dark city ark is set for Spain in less than a week from today..
thanks to everyone we still have hope of a future on land thats free to grow with us...
your servants The DCBobs and crew

Paul's ferry crossing in covid times anecdote
Ferry was very odd very limited and full of Dog owner that all sat together right at the top of the ship looked like a dog show,
the paperwork that needs to be done before you can enter Spain is a simple 2 sides of A4 more like a children's C19 pop quiz, almost the same form that you fill in to get in to India, use to trace missing persons...
there is a trick question about visiting animal market.... that could get most dog owner on the ship locked up for 14 days or more... but they did all have masks !!!!
the staff were few but most worked hard and as best they could under the conditions but there was one or two that could not even follow basic hygiene....
The ship its self was showing her age, years ago I would have not let her out of port... its was a little sad, I have been on this ship many times, it would not take a lot to bring her back to her prime.
If you are worrying about the ferry crossing and don't like being grouped together and sprayed with dog pee!
Then simply stay of the top of the ship and take you own food and water...
water is £3.30 for 1 lt which is 3 time the price of fuel at the pump in Spain after midnight all you can get is water from information run by just one member of staff …
Somethings will never change.. maskless drunks still wonder the decks lost looking for rooms... I can not help wonder if all this is about health why are the bars open.
