Scotland Debate

[SwingsitlikeHogan]

Oo, what did the rest of Scotland speak?

Genuine question!

Which part of the country and when?

They reckon that William Wallace (from Elderslie - a village outside Paisley - which is a town just outside Glasgow) spoke Welsh.

Much later on sassenachs would have spoken braid scots (read some Burns for that)

North East Scotland (Buchan and around) speak Doric (read some Lewis Grassic Gibbon for that)

So glad to see it's the NO vote that is the loud one!

This is the area of Edinburgh Jim Sillars got egged and verbally abused a few days back, old Jimbo took it in good spirits.I'm not sure I fancy this guys chances to be honest, he'll either be egged or laughed at ( from both yes and no)

I quite like his style though... even if I disagree with his voting intention.

:thup:

Mobile Phone bills.

Pies perhaps - nicked from (historic) Sainsbury's of course!

Not an area I use to fancy spending much time in without 'reinforcements'! Surely 90% Yes anyway? Or is apathy the issue?

Here is a thought for the voters.....

If we were currently an Independent Country and we were holding a Referendum to see if we were to join the Union......a place that'll put Nuclear Weapons into our own back garden and take all our taxes, would folks vote with a YES?

Theres a list of just this sort doing the rounds, the currents Mrs148 has it on her face book page, but struggled to post it on here.

As the Ryder Cup is due to be held in the UK this year and Europe (France) in 2018 how soon after a Yes vote can we expect the announcement that it is being moved to England/Wales/NI? If Scotland then join the EU they can bid to host it again in 2026 after it returns to the UK in 2022.

And, of course, practically everything on it is a flawed, twisted version of reality.

You think, first man I've met who can read a woman's mind.

I know, she spent two years convincing me to change my mind.

 

[Val]

Missed the point........Why would the BBC pick a maverick/lose cannon/idiot such as Galloway to take part in such an important debate. Why was a high profile lab/lib dem candidate not involved?

You missed my point, that's the third time I've asked the question, why can't you back up your claim?

 

[Val]

Mobile Phone bills.

What about them?

 

[Adi2Dassler]

What about them?

What do think I'm suggesting?

 

[CheltenhamHacker]

What do think I'm suggesting?

That your mobile phone bill has skyrocketed this month from increased forum action?

 

[FairwayDodger]

What do think I'm suggesting?

The sky high roaming charges we'll face in future when we visit Englandshire!

 

[Adi2Dassler]

That your mobile phone bill has skyrocketed this month from increased forum action?

Ha! not far off the truth.Got the text of doom from O2 a week into my monthly allowance telling me I'm near my data limit.


But no, I'm suggesting that O2/EE/BT/Vodafone/TalkTalk have all been at #10 today and will probably tomorrow announce higher bills if Scotland votes YES

I'm with 3

:whoo:

 

[williamalex1]

Bet 365 - referendum odds-- yes vote 3/1, no vote 1/4.

 

[FairwayDodger]

Clear anti-independence bias shown on BBC website picture....
