to ask Scottish mnetters if they or anyone they know have bought any of the jubilee tat going about?

[FayeGovan]

any shop displays I've seen (yes you M&S) dont look like they are selling

personally I'd rather give my money away than but a union jack mug/various shite, but maybe thats just me

so is anyone up here buying into all the hype?

Yes, but us English like to share!

haha, soozy, someone points that out every time.

I bought a 'jubilee' dine in for 2 this morning. Thanks Queenchops!

Nothing else planned.

I havent bought anything and I dont know anyone who has but the house is slowly filling up with red, white and blue tat the children are making at school, clubs etc

was actually a little surprised to see jubilee stuff for sale in tescos etc. I don't know of anyone celebrating it, and definitely not heard of any street parties!

The shops are full of red white and blue tat, I wouldn't dream of buying any of it and don't know anyone who would.

I've not. Both my kids have parties and are doing the red, white and blue thing. Why not, if they're enjoying themselves?

Won't buy any Jubilee tat myself and avoiding products that have shoved a Union flag on their packaging, where I can (I do my supermarket shop online so sometimes can't help it.

Apparently Brad and Angelina are planning to attend their local village Jubliee celebrations. I think I could be persuaded to put my anti Monarchy feelings aside for one day in order to share a jug of Pimms and a scotch egg with Bradders.

So only 1000 parties in Scotland? well could it posssssssssibly be that our population isn't as big as say oooh Engerland?

Why does everything have to be an England vs Scotland thing

100 not 1000

It wasn't an England v Scottish thing it was a statistic I read on Twitter this morning.

apols typo

No that' wasn't to you squoosh, was bascially the whole thread.

think they're all in edinburgh as well. There's a lot of chat about 'butcher's aprons' on my facebook.

This made me giggle.

I haven't bought anything but dds were given hats, flags and those party blower things at Nursery Jubilee party yesterday. There was also a red, white, and blue dress code. Most children were in blue and white. Mine wore pink. That's all they will wear.

we're going camping in the lakes this weekend, so YES i've bought bunting, paper plates, cups and paper table cloth, 2 for a pahnd. and someone bought the kids t-shirts with corgis on them. v subtle.

Ah, well, OP - once you've got independence you can do what you like and pay for your own prescriptions and university fees. Then you'll truly be free of us English won't you?

oh do be quiets, oldgrey. scotland puts more into the pot than it takes out.

Let's face it, the Scots don't usually take much persuading to have a party and celebrate. Wonder why they don't want to celebrate this?

YAWN. Away and educate yerself OldGrey.

Cos it just doesnt mean anything to us. To me, anyway. I can't speak for the whole country.

Would just like to clarify the Op's question is it just Scottish Mners you want or can anyone living in Scotland answer?

Dh bought kitchen roll which had little crowns and flags on it and I bought the children a small cake each in the guise of a marzipan corgi. Corgis still in the box, stale and uneaten.
So apart from wasted corgis and emergency toilet roll, no to your question, OP.

Not bought anything on purpose, and I'm not going to. WHSmith in Aberdeen have mixed some unsold Royal Wedding stuff in with the Jubilee stuff!

Tesco and Poundland are full of jubilee tat - I'll be very interested to know how much they're actually managing to sell.

I've not bought anything for the Jubilee as such, but I have bought a couple of Team GB things for te kids connected to the Olympics

The school are having a garden party for the jubilee tomorrow and have asked all the children to design a crown [glances out the window at the rain pishing down ]
