antidote Posted September 18, 2014 Share Posted September 18, 2014 (edited) Speaking to a swithering yes/no voter who has served in NI and I'm about 99.99% sure he's in the OO. He was voting YES until he came back to me yesterday with some questions on decommissioning of nuclear powers stations and who will pay for it. I gave him the answers, they will, he wanted to hear and a few words of wisdom on doing the right thing on voting YES, so I'm pretty sure he will hold up today and put his cross in the YES box. By the way does anyone know who pays for the decommissioning of these power stations? ;-) Edited September 18, 2014 by antidote Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hessen Posted September 18, 2014 Share Posted September 18, 2014 My wife told me last night that after considering yes earlier this week, she was now definitely no. This morning she was back to undecided again and is going to the polling booths in the evening. Vote tease! does she fancy Andy Murray at all? just asking Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jie Bie Posted September 18, 2014 Share Posted September 18, 2014 Nearly everyone I know outside of work is voting Yes. My work seems to be split 50/50. Quite a few of the guys who were planning on voting No a few months ago have told me that they've already voted Yes, or will be doing so tonight. In the words of one of my workmates, "what done it for me was them continually telling us we can't run our own country". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the_burger Posted September 18, 2014 Share Posted September 18, 2014 Lassie pal on FB posted the other day she was undecided. Spoke to her and, despite temptation to send her in the direction of the TAMB ( ), asked her to check out Craig Murray's blog. She's just posted a status update saying she has voted YES.

thplinth Posted September 18, 2014 Share Posted September 18, 2014 (edited) Bitter sweet the fact hes a Ranger Season Ticket holder. Hopefully just enough Rangers fans see through what has been done to them and in return they ram it up them with a Yes.

Jie Bie Posted September 18, 2014 Share Posted September 18, 2014 what sector do you work in? I am financial services and everyone here has the fear. its hugely a NO office. Energy sector. Lot's of supporters in both camps, in fact one of my workmates is off today manning his local polling station for Yes. Someone who voted No has told me he thinks Yes will win. I told him not to get my hopes up! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnnie x Posted September 18, 2014 Share Posted September 18, 2014 Personal life massive Yes majority Work due to its nature is a massive no but have found out i am not the only gay in the village. Surprisingly have seen a couple of yes car stickers and spoke to a yes voter yesterday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Exglasgowasc Posted September 18, 2014 Share Posted September 18, 2014 I work in the Ministry of Defence surrounded by military personnel. It's a massive No from them and the vast majority of civillian staff. Very few voting Yes. Every time I leave leaflets etc in the tea bays they are gone within 15 minutes. I think some uniformed Major or Colonel is collecting them!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope there will be a few keeping quiet or telling porkies so not to upset the military. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
