Big Thursday
Morning all . . . yeah, it's voting day . . . I'm up early and I'll be first to cast my vote no doubt . . . it's the only time I have a chance for my voice to be heard and I always have my say in the polling station . . . . that bitch on the news team who slagged off Gordon about Mrs Duffy last week is on just now in the news studio . . . it was awful, she was like a Rottie with a bone last week . . . she needs to broaden her horizons . . . . far far away.
. . . anyways, have a safe one OFFers, and cast your vote too.

Re: Big Thursday
At the polling station earlier, who should be stood standing there but . . . Mr David Alexander . . . yay! . . he's not our candidate but he's a leading figure in the SNP . . he's our local council leader . . . had a few words with him and wished his party all the best . . . this is a strong Labour constituency here, has been for decades . . Denis Canavan used to be our labour MP . . . he got wise and switched to the SNP a while ago . . . wise man, wise man . . I look forward to see how many votes they got . . no doubt it'll be the Labour donkey who gets in again.

Re: Big Thursday
Hi all.I've voted and been to see my mum today (to take her a memory foam mttress topper, no less!
), so it's R&R time now. I've even fixed the tv in the bedroom in case I get n overwhelming urge to watch results coming through. I strongly suspect any following of politics I do will be done via the radio. Apparently the results are likely to be later than we are used to, because of the high percentage of postal votes (up to 20%), which take additional scrutiny.

Re: Big Thursday
A busy day today-up early(despite having a late one last night with a bottle of wine and `Catsey quizz`-plug plug-DM knows what I refer to.Sorted out my tomato display and pulled loads of rhubarb-£1 for a bundle never less than 2.5 lb.
Two more hours toiling away before I said `sod it` lets go out.
We went here-we like it

Re: Big Thursday
Hi, all! Hope all have voted by now and that the lines weren't too horrendous!Gorgeous day here, 25 C (76 F) and cloudless skies; so pleasant that I had breakfast on the porch as I had no errands, slept in so not in a hurry to get to the bus. OG, nice to see you back at the Catsey quiz yesterday!
Hope it's a good day for all, don't stay up too late watching the result!
