A couple of light-hearted You Tube videos regarding the upcoming vote :)
Now, I'm obviously not a huge fan of the England football team, and less so, the fans; but I have to say that this made me laugh out loud......

Then a bit of fun from one of our favourite comedians, Mr Kevin Bridges....

Brilliant ;D
-
Sounds like a plan :)
-

Scottish and proud to be....
my vote....NO
-
Good answer mate. The YES campaign seem to be pushing the idea that if you are patriotic you have to vote yes.
We can be proud to be Scots, and proud to be in alliance with our friends in England and Wales and Northern Ireland......and France and Germany etc etc.
My concern is that the right-wing movement in England may take the UK out of Europe, and I don't want that.
-
Have already sent in my postal vote - yes.
-
As a Scot living in England, I don't mind either way, As long as I don't need a passport to go home ;D
And I can't vote anyway :o, been away to long
-
And I can't vote anyway :o, been away too long
Och, you poor wee jessie -- can you really imagine William Wallace accepting that as a valid reason for denying him the vote ?!
** Phil.

Definitely not Phil,
But there again I can't see the local constabulary letting me run amok up there with me kilt on, and swinging a big Claymore around, (Unless I go to Glasgow, where it's quite normal ;D)

Looks like you suvverners are stuck with us for a bit longer.
Shortbread, haggis, Chasni, bagpipes, and friendly banter are here to stay.......for a while anyway :)

Only until /our/ referendum : "Are we English sick and tired of the whinging Scots, and do /we/ therefore want independence from /them/ ?". Aye !!!
** Phil.

I used to think you were a decent, balanced, guy Phil.
But I don't tolerate racist views such as you have just expressed.

Sadly, I am unable to post my thoughts.

garp, i'm 100% with you,
phil, you 'appear' to be this erudite educated person,someone who we 'oop north' would call a know it all....
(politely put for reasons of moderation) A.K.A..a bam
for anyone interested ..'oop north' is anything north of the Watford Gap....
you have just confirmed that ignorance is bliss...go and live in your happy wee selfish world, with your 4 megamillion btu burner and your grill pit while the UK bloody disintegrates.
And for the record... I voted NO....
-
Without knowing a whole lot about any of you fellas up there, I'd hazard a guess that mebe old Phil McAvity there is taking the P out of you highlanders with a bit of sarcasm. By the way I'm a Livingston so watch your step Phil. ;D ;)
It is actually funny to hear a Scot accusing a Pom of "Racism". It is also funny to hear a Pom whining about whinging Scots. down hear in upside down world we refer to Whinging Poms because they constantly remind everybody of how much better it is at home.
Racism is a funny word and often misused. At the moment down here the Muslim community is accusing the non-Muslim community of being racist. The thing is even if there is a controversy between these two groups, it has naught to do with RACE. There are Anglo-Saxon Muslims (my fishing mate is one) and there are Asian Christians.
Just sayin'.

^^^^^ pointless^^^^^^
only in my opinion though..........

Bummer ;) The vote was as close as I thought it would be although I wasn't sure which way it would go. Good turnout and I hope the 'Yes' people are happy to accept it. Fair play to Alex Salmond who I thought was magnanimous in defeat.
And as for me Garp (being 50% haggismuncher)
Shortbread - :P
Haggis :P :P :P(of for some Ballards on toast for breakfast after posting this)
Chasni - never had one but I'll try one next month when I'm across the border.
Bagpipes - Crashed and burned miserably this year with them.
-
Appears there is some unease up there over the result. I do hope that it doesn't escalate into unnecessary and pointless violence where innocent people are injured. Hardly surprising though, when people get passionate about something as far reaching as a change in ideology. It was always going to be divisive no matter which way it went really.
We can only hope that the unrest settles soon.

And I thought it was only Americans who lacked a sense of humour, and whose irony detectors were congenitally defective. Come on Mr McGarp and Mr McMojorisin -- take a leaf out of Mr 50%-McLivo and recognise a piss take when you see one ...

I hope so to livo.
I also hope it triggers an influx of curious visitors to Scotland next year,
that would be a positive outcome.
Best regards,

But the English, devious as always, met their opponents beard to beard, looked them in the eye, then stabbed the man to the left. And poor Sir William was part-hanged, cut down, emasculated, eviscerated, dismembered, and his preserved head displayed on a spike on London Bridge.
Ah, those were the days :)
