I didn't call anyone an arse, I said I wasn't a judgmental arse. Do keep up.
Btw, Cannae wasn't in Scotland.
I never said it was, it is what we say in slang for "cannot"
I said it was in the Roman Empire so cannot be in Scotland.

Will we be seeing exit polls throughout the day?
I don't think they should split and I hope they don't, it seems the more sensible option... Plus Alex Salmond's smugness would be taken to a whole new level if they won
The mischievous child inside me though kind of does want it to be a yes vote just to see what happens and to see how it turns out, see who was right about what
Yeah, that's how I feel too.
I think it would be good to see how it would turn out.
I like how this thread has gone much the same way as any other independence discussion up here, full of people arguing the toss and not actually taking the time to step back and look at the bigger picture.
I'll be off to vote 'No' in a couple of hours, and believe that it'll be a no vote 53 to 47. I'm expecting trouble regardless of the outcome, and don't think that the city of Glasgow is going to be a peaceful loving place this weekend!
We'll get first results in around 1am and hopefully have a result around 7am. Counting doesn't start till all polling stations shut at 10pm. If there's bad weather, then some results from the Western Islands may be delayed further than early morning but I doubt it. The result will be called when it's mathematically decided, rather than when all votes have been counted.
My flatmate and I will likely stay up and watch it, him with a box of Tennents in one corner of the living room and me with my Carling in the other.

It'll be fine if they split, all the doom & gloom is just scare mongering.
Just the same as at the last General Election, remember when the Tories were saying how the country would implode if there was a coalition government, omg..the money markets would plummet against us, everything would come to a grinding halt and nothing would ever get done.
Oh look, everything just carried on, just as it will if Scotland becomes 'independent'.

You said:
"P.S : Cannae was a city in the Roman Empire (since you are not very clued up on the topic of Scotland or Romans). "
Cannae is not a city in Scotland, either now or at the time of the Roman Empire. I know this as it was the site of Hannibal's victory in the Punic Wars (therefore illustrating that perhaps I am a little more clued up on the Romans than you might think). I also know that cannae is a colloquial contraction of cannot. The two are not related, which puts you in an awkward position over what you have written once again.
Perhaps you should simply stop replying to me like you keep saying you will. Actually be a man of your convictions.
It is true. He has expressed anti-English sentiments in the past, even though he says he was misinterpreted. It is of no surprise to me and I think you are entirely correct.
Cannae was a city in the Roman Empire, at no time did I say it was or ever was in Scotland so you are either blind or making that up.
Again you talk a lot of trash saying others do not read fully what is written but you are the one who does not rad fully so again touché.
I have no clue how you got that badge, it must be for talking poop but seems many with it do so.

I dunno, this has wider ramifications than a coalition government.
We'll lose at least 3/4 of our Olympic medals, that's for sure
Also Scotland's economy will collapse, the Tories will take over England forever, there'll be bloodshed on the streets, and West Life will get back together. Absolute disaster for everyone if they vote Yes

You know there's something not right about this whole mess when its main backer is a Putin admirer:

I hope the Scots make the right choice and vote "No".

Oh for sure, I appreciate that. It might not be all milk and honey as the Yes campaign are saying, but it won't be all doom & gloom as the No campaign are saying.
It'll just work because everyone will have to make it work.
