They cleaned the pushchair shed and that's terrible!

... let me explain. Outside the children's school there is a glass shed for putting your pushchair in (they're not allowed into the nursery building). During winter, it gets covered in a thick layer of frost, and last year, that gave me itchy fingers. One morning, I sketched a sauropod dinosaur into the frost with one finger.

Thing is, the glass is clearly filthy. The drawing stayed there after the frost melted, clearly visible even when dry. When it got frosty again, or when it rained, it was an obvious area of less moisture. I made a few edits from time to time, and was constantly amused over the winter.

But it didn't go away. All through the spring, summer, and autumn, I could still make out the outline of the dinosaur. It was astonishing how well it lasted. Last week we had our first frost, and I drew a little raptor-type critter to keep it company.

Apparently that was too much, because yesterday I discovered that the glass had been cleaned! Someone had wiped it down, leaving trails of 'cleaner' glass - and not a trace of my dinosaurs. They were extinct. :(

...

Though that does mean I can replace them with more anatomically correct versions this winter.
