Any positives about a YES vote, for the English? (light hearted)

[onelastfling]

The Weather on TV will be a LOT shorter.

We will only have to wait 5 minutes for the weather girl to get round to us, instead of the usual 15 minutes, while they go all round the houses Scotland etc.

No clocks changing
More jobs

Ah yes. Back to normal, civilized time!

Her Madge will sell the family holiday home in Scotland and downsize somewhere else. The excitement of wondering where, will be too much to bear.

Someone said on French TV that the annual rainfall for rUK would reduce by quite a lot which could be good for tourism.

Surely her madj will stay as crowned head of Scotland as the two crowns were amalgamated? Which is why the saltire is in the union jack?

If Scotland joins the EU my kids will be able to go to university in Scotland and not pay tuition fees.
The other good thing is that I won't have to watch salmond on the news anymore because he will be nothing to do with the rest of the UK.

The Scots will be able to get rid of the SNP and its leader.

Maybe Scotland will become a republic next.

Oooh we may get a flag redesign!

Can I vote for a pink sparkly number with leopard print stripes and a bottle of blue wkd as our national emblem?

Please please PLEASE take Lorraine Kelly back over the border! (or is that being a wee bit mean)

I've nothing against her, other than she seems to be on TV too much - she could take Ant and Dec with her.

No more Balamory or that other annoying one with the childminder and the fruit and veg stall guy (what is that called?) ruining Cbeebies

Aaaaaaaaaaa-Hwhats the story in balamory wouldn't ye like ta knooo

I can still sing the theme tune a decade later.

If scotland doesn't get EU membership as soon as salmond blithely assumes then we ought to be able to get duty free whisky. There won't be border guards, just lots of whisky shops . (not that I actually like whisky)

Will all the wee haggis leap the border for freedom?

Good point Errol - but would it happen? There's an international border between Malaysia and Sngapore, but no duty free allowance.

OTOH, the Channel Islands are non-EU and there is.

No more Salmond on Question Time. No more Scottish Independence Specials.

Here they come Ididnt

What about Gretna Green? Will people still be able to nip across the border and get married on a whim?

Clocks not changing :)

I can see them now, marching and squealing their way down through the borders, into northumberland...someone let me know when they get to York because that's when we should fear for our lives... or is that a different era of history and soldiers not haggis?

Bring on the Whiskey! DRINK!

The long overdue end of 'Hootenanny' and all other similar scottesque (?) attempts to pretend the transition from December 31st to January 1st is anything other than deathly dull ....

We can stop being called rUK.

We aren't rUK, we are the bloody UK.

And really, who actually likes Whiskey anyway?

Ooh I didn't think about Gretna! Surely they'll be buggered as getting married abroad needs more warning and paperwork?

"And really, who actually likes Whiskey anyway?"

The Irish

I don't but it's a good excuse for a drink

Think of the lost revenue from the raspberry and venison trade...reckon there'll be illegal smuggling across the border?
