The Referendum

[Les]

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.

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'.

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 - 
Haggis    (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.
