Valiant and proud lefties election night thread

[MarionCole]

So which channel is going to be best then?

"350 Lancaster & Fleetwood 15:00"

15:00? They surely can't mean they aren't going to finish counting in my constituency till 3pm tomorrow? What are they doing, going out for a long lunch?

Hello Justa

We got married in 1997.

Urgh, sudden and unexpected mention of Murdoch made me a bit sick in my mouth.

Carr has a lollipop head. Like an anorexic.

I think I might have persuaded a couple of floating voters at nursery today. I really should have campaigned there with a bit more enthusiasm. [grrr]

yes KH I MEANT to say hello as well but the thread was moving quite quickly and I lost my post-it note.

Hello Kay! It is lovely to see you.

Amazingly, I haven't yet opened the wine. Hoarding instincts kicking in, I think, before the coming (and bitter) Winter of Contempt kicks in.

Somebody trip Carr up or something

Thanks Marion.

4am . Actually, DS feeds around then, so I'll just pop the telly on when I get up.

I'm not particularly interested in ours, as its a safe seat, but will be looking out for Birmingham Hall Green (parents) and Manchester Withington (neighbouring marginal and voted there last time round) which are at 3.30 and 3.

Murdoch IS sick in the mouth

mmmm......david mitchell in a suit......yummy

wow Ewe you were ten!!! [feels incredibly old]

I was 18 and it was the first ever election I could vote. Was a lovely introduction to democracy [weeps quietly]

Actually me and DS are having scarily similar experiences regarding the Tories.

Margaret Thatcher was voted in when I was a toddler and my mum's first thought was "Oh well, it's not so bad, we'll have time to vote them out before she goes to school."

How wrong she was. I was able to vote them out myself in my first year at university.

I really, REALLY hope that they get voted out before DS goes to uni [hyperventilates].

Ok, switched off after the Clegg's hot Spanish "joke"

Wanker

Carr is profoundly smug.

Hi LaBattyOne

Not convinced, flicking back to QI/Outnumbered

Christ this is moving quick.

Yes - C4 a bit weird. Not sure if I like it. Do you think Lauren Laverne's dress was chosen to have a pattern equally composed off all the party colours, so as to be non-partisan?

It's that prick Rod Liddle and the libdem ex copper - Brian Paddock?

Hello, just checking in. Feeling nervous but excited. In a (very) safe Tory seat so no surprises what the local outcome will be tomorrow.

I've wankered on about Jimmy Carr's complex layers of performed identity in the past, but I'm now prepared to acknowledge that he's just a cunt.

My toenails are now red.

I need to put dye on my hair.

Then I'll do the washing up and lunch packing and coffee maker prep.

That should kill off more time.
