Default pruning roses

OK, this is such an iggerant question but is it OK to prune roses now?
We missed pruning them in November, when we usually take them down a
third or so (then another prune in Feb/March), and then it was too
frosty to do anything. Now the temperatures are reliably above
freezing, should we do a bit of pruning, or wait till February and do
the lot then?

We're in Blackheath, London, quite high and colder than central London
but warmer than the countryside.
