They say you only miss something when it's gone.
That came true for me today when out cycling and the rain came down in buckets specifically aimed at my face.
The visor on my helmet broke last week after falling from my desk at work and now I know what purpose it served.
If someone has invented windscreen wiper-type contraptions on glasses, I will be first in the queue to buy them. And if those devices have not been invented, then I will cycle all the way to the patent office with my idea and hopefully laugh all the way to the bank.
