You are the only person ever to label one of these a "dirty snowball." And it is a complete fit, Tom.

Indeed they are Eve, I was lucky years ago to see the comet swift tuttle and its awesome to watch the shooting stars at various times of the year.When you do look up on a clear night at the heavens you realise how small and insignificant you are. Tom
