12:00 this afternoon you mean CTR? 
?Nice driving today. Slightly skittish. There's a road between Barton-le-clay & Hitchin which is great, but there is always traffic - NOBODY on it today
in either direction. Today was probably the first time in 3 years that I've had a clear run at it.

A bit too wet today.
I had a little scuffle with a 911 this morning. Dont know which, but quite new. He murdered me on the bends. But of course I had my roof down, and he didn't have that option.

left home at 11am just got in,4.40pm great day out with the roof down, dont think the wife is that happy though, she need a bigger hat, ears are frozen. found some very good roads around huntingdon and further a field but cannot remember the village names as such a blur.
it does look like snow tonight, turned very cold , but had a great day out best I've had a for a while.

It was icy as fook (see pics) on the coastal road so I had to be careful when doing 60mph+ on the edge of a cliff, but still managed to get her into VTEC with the roof down which kept a smile on my face most of the day. The weathe was great, and I stopped half way through to wash the car and play some more.

My roof even went all the way down first time, which is a bonus at the moment
, could see it in my rear view mirror. Car came out of the garage so it wasn't frozen, I'm sure I've got it down lower than this before. Should I be doing something or is it the fact its a bit cold and less flexible ?

Managed to get out for a quick spin about 3.30 this afternoon - no woolly hat though, just a baseball cap
Nice to see a Nurby on our way out, and also an MX5 with the roof down complete with woolly hats

Glad you all had a good day 
I spent most of the day asleep (between night shifts
) Did manage to clean mine - it needed it.
Beardie, how was your Jock meet? Not too many SO2 or RE50 'moments I hope
