I got an actual fright reading that Ended up with a Lagavulin 16 incidentally! -
The Paranoia Thread

Paranoia? Postal vote turn out is at around 93%?? I'm already sensing a wee labour party special 'top up' there... -
First Exit Polls
thewelk replied to thewelk's topic in Anything Goes - Other topics not covered elsewhere
yeah, you might need to assume that the Nos would be ashamed of themselves and hence less likely to say. -
First Exit Polls

It might just be a general exit poll then and they've put "edinburgh" because it's the capital. Like they do for real countries! -
First Exit Polls

Exactly my thoughts. Even if it is a fag packet exit poll by an italian reporter standing outside a polling station somewhere you'd never expect yes to lead. Unless it was at 1pm when only the yes minks were out voting and the Nos were all at the office. -

Already a brief mention in the Italian media "I primi exit poll: a Edimburgo i sì al 52%. Lo spoglio alle 23" 52% Yes in Edinburgh http://www.corriere.it/

Media Links Overseas

If you use chrome install the "hola better internet" extension and it'll let you watch the normal UK streams. Usually works quite well. -
The Flow Of People To Yes

He's not old enough to have a favorite chair or go to a home but I'll fire off a few links to his facebook. He might go for one of them. Cheers! -

His natural home is on the No side. Lets face it. -
Bbc Debate 14Th September

How can anyone take Alexander seriously? He's like one of they empty politicians you see in American tv series that are snorting coke off a hoors nipples in their spare time. -
What's Your Independence Whisky?

Was in a pub in dortmund and a bunch of TA ordered a round of Ardbeg. Could smell it before I saw it. Might go for springbank just because it triggered something in my head. Someone recommended the 15yr old to me a while back! -

The Flow Of People To Yes
thewelk replied to Dillinger's topic in Anything Goes - Other topics not covered elsewhere
I was only really aiming to convert my parents. My mum was quite easy. She was a definite no but it only took a bit of persuasion from me and my brother to get her to yes. And her crowd of pals are all hard yessers anyway so they would have done it if we hadn't. My dad on the other hand (a typical 60+ ex army type) was and still is completely unmovable. I really thought I could work on him over time but he refuses to open his mind even a little bit. And he doesn't even say why he's no, "that's just the way it is". It's so f'ing frustrating because I'm sure he'd benefit a lot from it. But there's no way in there. A lost cause in my opinion. Has anyone else dealt with someone like that? And did you have any success? What's the eureka moment for that type?? -
Train Booked - 4 More Sleeps.
thewelk replied to irnbruman's topic in Anything Goes - Other topics not covered elsewhere
I've had a f***in shitter of a three weeks at work (long weekend in Dusseldorf didn't help much!) which finally calms down on Wednesday so I'll be getting myself a good bottle of whisky for the all nighter on Thursday and taking Friday off. Can't wait. -
Post Referendum
thewelk replied to 1ANDYP's topic in Anything Goes - Other topics not covered elsewhere
If it's a no vote I think the first thing we need to do is take the free bus passes and prescriptions from the old folk and ram them up their ungrateful arses. Or maybe just take them away without the ramming...but they don't deserve them anymore. -

Sky are reporting it. And Russia Today wont hesitate. But the BBC will sweep it under the carpet. -
