Yes - 38 miles top down this morning - just me with the half tonneau cover.
The first time I did the Christmas Eve blat was 2008. That was MissW's last Christmas Eve at home, so she came with me, and I have a photo, but if I post it on here I'll be in trouble.
Then I did it again in 2011 - solo blat.
And again today. So not exactly a tradition, but at least 3 years in the last six have been fit to do it. I also filled the tank.
A great way to kick off the festivities.
I waved to an old bloke in a Jag who had the roof down, but his face (which was like a slapped arse), never budged.

A quick jaunt out along Royal Desire today in bright sunshine and blue skies. Temperature barely above zero and roads a bit icy so had to take things easy. Now the car is filthy so tomorrow is mog cleaning day, what a shame.

Sonning- Henley- Marlow ,very nice run -definitely had the collar of my flying jacket up against the wind!!The journey back became interesting as the sun dropped very low - not great driving conditions.

A quick run up to Old Sarum Airfield to see if anything was happening, but not. Very quiet.
And as JB62 commented, the low sun coupled with a thin film of road crud on the screen makes driving "interesting". Thank goodness for an auto box, at least driving one handed isn't difficult...the other hand to block out the sun!!
