Ooo! OK so far. Shame about the bloody mobile phone.
Working today and when people came in I had to ask them their address to direct them to the polling booth, some of the replies were funny. It ranged for "Don't know " "Whit" to "Round the corner near Mrs McShane"one guy did say "I can read thanks",then spent several minutes wandering around the school until he asked "Where do I vote" lol

So I have a Yes activist giving me excuses already & the result hasn't even been announced. Today is going to be a long and bitter day.

CNN have been left with a huge amount of egg on their faces after reporting a Scotcen Poll of Polls as putting the "Yes" vote ahead: 58% to 52%.

(In reality, it was of course 48% to 52%. This is what happens when you give it 110%. )
