Beadlet blessing

The rain we were promised on Monday night actually fell as tiny little pearls of ice that decided they would form a microcosm of decorative festoons on the windscreen of the car. I am not quite sure how they managed this, that long standing chain on the left looks particularly challenging. However, having duly admired their efforts I was left with no choice but to flick the switch and sweep them aside to ensure proper visibility for the drive to the station as demanded by the highway code.
Perhaps it was the positive karma we gained by photographing them that helped the ipod nano to survive its ordeal when abandoned on the tarmac.
