Had a pootle up Deeside today, photos are in the Morgan Gallery. Not the warmest of days but very pleasant all the same. Only saw one other car with the roof down and it was a Beetle convertible, one of the new ones - don't think I've actually seen one with the roof down before! Driver of a bright yellow Gallardo Spider did flash his lights at me, did wave back even though he had his roof up. Have decided I don't like the Dunlop "SP Sport FastResponse" rear tyre I put on back in the summer. As the weather cooled down I found that it needs some serious warming up before it wants to grip and that when things get properly cold it isn't interested in warming up at all. It being about nine tenths worn out its not great in the snow either. Who'd have thought it?!
