Bleak

Today was a bleak day. For a start there was snow, which I love - there is something of great beauty in an earth gripped by frozenwater. It didn't challenge the drive to the factory, but there wasn't enough to make the place look really pretty. Then the day went downhill. Aircraft still not ready to finish testing. Wait for a ground run. Still no joy. Behind me are rows of brand new helicopters but I'm not even supposed to turn around and take a photo looking at the aircraft without the photo police having to vet my shots. I suppose there might be some thing commercially sensitive that someone might take exception to. So a day of stalling and trying to get all sorts of niff naff done. Without success. A grey day. But the sun will shine tomorrow. You need the occasional grey day to make the next sparkle.
