The industrial landscape of the north Derbyshire valleys is dotted with mills a factories.
But they're never far from the surrounding hills. A dull and damp morning above the town.

Lovely shots.

Nice perspective! thanks for sharing

Lovely shots.

Thanks Woe. Some of these mills have been here since the 18th century, using water power from the rivers.

Nice shots!

You're welcome. It's amazing something so old can still be so beautiful

Beautiful captures! Nice work mate!

Great shots

I keep hoping for the sun to break through - not so far, unfortunately.

I tried that line on the wife, but it only earned me pain

Great shots Captain. Thanks for sharing!

I just had 2 nice flights with the MP (for a change)
Although I have to say it might have been my last 2 MP flights.
I'm considering selling it because I'm not sure about the new EU laws and my big heavy MP that will require me to take an exam and theory class.
So if I can get some money from it now, it might be a good time to part from it

Thanks QQ. I was hoping for sunshine, but had to make do with dull and damp.

Could be.  But there's always the Mini 2.

Thanks Suren.  Hoping for some sunshine soon.

Yeah indeed. I will keep an eye on the implementation here in NL, since all countries can make their own additions....
If it is positive for me and a MM2, I will probably jump on that train.
But the end is near for me and MP I guess.

That would be a pity

Blériot53 Posted at 11-11 11:28

I'm sure there will be a way to fly again, but not with the MP.

Blériot, you sure didn't let a dull and damp morning stop you from getting some very nice captures.  I'm hoping my weather doesn't go to sh.t with TS Eta heading my way but I guess only time will tell.

Thanks RDB.  If the storms are coming, keep your head down until they've passed

You're welcome.  Thanks for the good advice Blériot.  Since retiring I live on a 62 foot boat so this will be my first storm to ride out on it.  I've been through many storms on Navy ships so that is nothing new but never on something this small.  Should be an interesting time.  Nice thing about the boat is it makes it very easy to social distance.  LOL.

Oh!  That's going to be a rough ride I guess.  And OK about the social distancing   Take care and batten down the hatches!

Known politely as Murphy's Law. Others have a different name for it
A nice day evolved here, so I got some flight time in.
