Scotland Debate

my learned friend

There has been a lot of guff and nonsense spoken on this thread, but now you're really pushing it!
:thup:

 

[Adi2Dassler]

Galloway? Borders?

Lowlands surely? I always see 'The Borders as Hawick and east.

hmmm, never thought if it like that.But you could be correct.I always consider Dumfries/Galloway as border regions.

I became more aware of Dodger's interpretation after I moved to Edinburgh but, with my roots from Galloway, I always considered it to be the borders too. And they get "Borders" telly. Poor them!

 

[lex!]

That the borders are really quite strange and unique in Scottish society? And I know that to be true as I spend a significant amount of time in Galloway.

Er hello Glasgow, Galloway isn't in the Borders, it's in Galloway.

I've got a wee but n ben at Carrick shore near Gatehouse...no TV allowed by decree of grandparents/parents....get out and enjoy the bloody fields and beaches!No internet too, if anything significant happens over the weekend I'll be none the wiser, which is very liberating.

So you'll be hoping for a wee deoch an doris next week then

Just a wee deoch an doris, just a wee drop, that's all.
Just a wee deoch an doris afore ye gang awa.
There's a wee wifie waitin' in a wee but an ben.
If you can say, "It's a braw bricht moonlicht nicht",
Then yer a'richt, ye ken.

A record 4,285,323 people have registered to vote...Scotland, take a bow.

Could be a first for me.... queuing at the polling station!

+1

Staggering numbers. I just hope all those newly registered voters stay on the Roll and make their voice heard at future elections whatever the outcome of this current event.

Hardly an 'unbiased' writer - a Conservative MP - in a distinctly pro-Union newspaper!

97% of the electorate.IF even 80% come out and vote YES wins I think.If its over 90% I predict 60%+ victory.

I read the Telegraph everyday, it's sports section is the best about I think.It's coverage of this entire campaign has been nothing short of scandalous.

Staggering figure..............I think they said 200,000 had already voted.

I know that they were queuing to register.
Well done Scotland.

There has been unbiased writing on both sides of the campaign

Calling it unbiased won't change any facts though

Because they are pro union - no doubt the feeling would be different if they were pro independent

Now that is mighty impressive

 

[Adi2Dassler]

To continue along the strand of The BBC being somewhat one-sided,have a look.
