Beautiful Moments, Part Two
Last week I saw a helium balloon cross the road at the lights on a perfectly timed gust of wind. Today I saw four people trying to get into a GWiz electric car. They failed.
What's the best thing you've seen recently?

About 10 years ago it snowed pretty hard,
I lived in Kent at the time and worked in Surrey, so being that i had to be in work at 6am for the job i was doing at the time i had to go down the M25 in about 6 inches of snow at 5am ish.
At that time of day there was no-one around so being on a nice straigh bit of road in my (at that time Ford Sierra), i thought i would open it up a bit. Looking at the road ahead it was pristine white snow and from my rear view mirror all i could see was a massive plume of snow flying up in the air. It must have looked awesome for anyone who could have seen it.
Then i noticed the car start to shift to the right a little and realised i have lost all traction and was now at the mercy of phyisics. Thankfully bu the time i had stopped spinning, i had managed to guide the car to only hit the crash barrier on the hard shoulder. So smashed the crap out of the front of the car, soild my pants and looked a twat. But for a short time, it was beautiful...

Even better is driving on the motorway in the dark when it's heavily snowing
it's like hyperspace in the Millennium Falcon!
