Oh that's a VERY clever avatar!

The 55 are already down to 50.

I do. I love you all. Every single Yes voter. Even the ones I hate.

One thing is for sure, we need to get organised. Properly organised. Robin McAlpine on Bella makes a worthy case http://bellacaledonia.org.uk/2014/09/19/wipe-your-eyes-on-your-feet/ We need to do this and do it right. Factionalism and cynicism have no place at this table. When a pro Indy event is on near you, you go, you turn up, you say your piece, you contribute. The broad Left of Scotland is in agreement, there can be no power struggles or egos, we unite in our common cause. Social justice and care for the vulnerable in our society are paramount, we want a community that protects, helps, encourages all of our citizens to maximize their potential and live the best of lives that they are able to. We say no to corporate greed, the laissez-faire of the markets, selfishness, and a dismantling of community. We need to re-democratize ourselves and work for each other. All of us first. The next few weeks should see the the emergence of the vehicles as to how we do this. Get involved, shape them - make it yours. The referendum has stirred most of us from our sleep. Now we're awake and we'll actually start doing it. There's no going back now, the society we want to mould, the communities we want to live in, the aspirations we've dismissed as unachievable, the values we cherish, the changes we all want to see to make ourselves proud of where we live; all of these choices are ours to realise. I know this sounds like a bit of a rant but I'm now more determined than ever. An independent Scotland is unstoppable, we just need to make it so.

1.6 million Yessers. I love you all.

I'm with you Kevie. We come back from this more invigorated than ever. Yes lost the vote but it won the argument. The argument will never go away. We continue to fight for independence with renewed vigour and pride in what has been achieved so far.

The membership has increased by over 20% since the vote. Their servers have been crashing every few hours due to the number of applications. Scottish (sic) Labour are getting hunted. SSP, Greens, and the real progressive Left will replace them in 2016. And we need to send as many SNP MPs to Westminster as possible in May. Scotland has been changed, enough of it's people are wise enough now that Independence is inevitable. We will continue until the dream is realised.

He's not going, there is a life and spirit yet in the man that most of us cannot reach. He'll see off Labour in 2016. He's the greatest politician Scotland has ever had.

Iain M Banks.

800k voted for the 2011 SNP Government. 1.6 million voted Yes.

We dared to dream. No apologies required. The positive enthusiasm of Yes was beautifully honest. It was a wonderful campaign and it changed us all for the better. I'm proud of Yes and all of us who believe in a better Scotland and a better world, well we're not going anywhere. 1.6 million people said Yes. Our dreams and hopes are only temporarily shattered. It'll take a while to get over this, I'm gutted, but we will not go away.

It's up to Glasgow to save us.

Only 6000 votes in it now.

And so, we rely on our city folk. Those who have most to gain from Independence. Less than 2% of the electorate have declared.

Where's Flure? Help!

Keep the faith.

Gilmerton 3:2 Yes Morningside 2:1 No Alnwickhill 2:1 No Polwarth 4:3 No All good results for Yes. Keep the faith.

This is killing me. My stomach is in knots. We MUST do this.

Let's hope it smashes the 2011 Holyrood election result out the park. It's going to be a long and nervy night... May the YES be with you.

It's not often you get an albeit tenuous excuse to post this utopian exchange:

Sanctimonious junk.

The Westfalen 'dance' was hilarious!

I know, it's been done to death, but so has the referendum pash. The day is upon us now and the songs that have meant so much throughout our lives that resonate with TODAY deserve our attention, on this DAY of all DAYS . << See, the KEY word there. Let's celebrate the immediacy of it all. I'll start with the fantastic 'This is the DAY', by TheThe, almost unbelievable it was written 30 years ago. Any song about the DAY or just the moment that reflects TODAY.

Never in doubt. Stevie, Stevie Stevie, Stevie Stevie, Stevie Andy Murray! Darren, Darren Darren, Darren Darren, Darren Andy Murray! Vote Yes for a better Tennis Scotland.
