You're a wise woman Tension, he is indeed a twat.

The ginger hair is the least annoying thing about him starwars!

Back! Baby took ages to settle. Don't think she is impressed with the referendum at all. Trying to teach a 3 1/2 month old the word 'no' didn't get me very far Grin suspect I will be fed up of hearing that word all too soon anyway!

DH has declared he's not drinking Irn Bru any more if it is a Yes vote. Which is quite a sacrifice for him seeing as it has become his all time favourite drink since moving here.

Got the news on and a bag of Minstrels on the go although may need to conk out soon. Who was the chap with the fabulous headgear?

squoosh · 19/09/2014 00:25

Babies are pesky things.

TensionWheelsCoolHeels · 19/09/2014 00:25

Grin The boy who loved blamange. That's him nailed.

Great quote from the Guardian live feed (this relates to the Edinburgh count):

"Not everyone was that subdued, though. A Pakistani ‘Business for Scotland’ Yes supporter called Mr Hussein came over. “Who are you with?” he asked. The Guardian. “You have been very biased,” he declared. “May you burn in hell. With Scottish oil.” With that he flung his arms out and hugged me. “I came here from Huddersfield in 1969 and we’re all basically the same aren’t we? Whatever the result, when all this is over I am going to have a big party. And I’m going to invite you too. You’ve got to have a laugh haven’t you?”"

Gotta love that passion.

I'm currently on Sky News watching a row of vote counters giving Kay Burley a scornful side eye.

Alibabaandthe40nappies · 19/09/2014 00:26

I'm off to bed, happy counting everyone :)

My prediction, on the basis that AS is going into hiding this evening, is that No will win with 57% of the vote.

WildThong · 19/09/2014 00:26

Who was the chap with the fabulous headgear?

Danny Alexander apparently

EarthWindFire · 19/09/2014 00:27

I can't possibly repeat what DP has just said about good old Danny Blush

starwarslegoboy · 19/09/2014 00:28

Irn Bru sucks. And you can't get spills out of the carpet (Ok I don't have any, just some rugs, but I remember). So you No-ers can keep the second National Drink

LatteLoverLovesLattes · 19/09/2014 00:28

Phew zuid She missed her Mum! Is it the first time you've left her?

LOL @ DH! I bet he's praying harder than any of us for a NO vote Grin

Not sure who you mean with the head gear - I'm watching BBC Scotland.

starwarslegoboy · 19/09/2014 00:29

Brian Taylor is def better on the radio

squoosh · 19/09/2014 00:29

Danny Blancmange's seduction technique at 45 seconds in.

OOAOML · 19/09/2014 00:29

EWF I thought we could say anything in here? Go on, go on, go on, go on

squoosh · 19/09/2014 00:29

I like Brian Taylor but I do worry for his health.

squoosh · 19/09/2014 00:30

I hate Irn-Bru. I also hate Tunnock's.

Apparently I am in danger of a public flogging for saying these things.

OOAOML · 19/09/2014 00:31

I don't like Irn Bru either. See starwars? Post referendum consensus already Wink

flippinada · 19/09/2014 00:31

Shame on you squoosh!

squoosh · 19/09/2014 00:33

I know, I know. People worship those shaving foam filled things, but I just don't get it!

flippinada · 19/09/2014 00:33

Suggestions that Falkirk may go no...now that is a big deal, if true.

Everyotherfreckle · 19/09/2014 00:33

I am still laughing at 'Mallorca Towers' - it sounds so exotic!

Can't believe Alex Salmond is going into hiding, surely at this stage now he just has to style it out whatever happens?!

starwarslegoboy · 19/09/2014 00:33

Briliiant. thanks for that squoosh

OOAOML · 19/09/2014 00:33

Quite like teacakes, not keen on caramel wafers though.
