hadn't really noticed the UKIP names - but tbh I'm just kind of staring at the main results page of the BBC page with somewhat glazed eyes what the numbers move up and down

Counters at Slough are having a busy night.

A press officer for Slough Borough Council explained that the counters for the area had been split into two groups with half there tonight and the other half not starting until tomorrow so they are fresh for the borough election count.

Therefore there are about 37 counters tonight who have had to verify both the general election and the borough election papers.

The count has yet to begin.

ffs

I'm resigned to staying up now. May manage an hour when DH gets home before I need to put the bins out.

ASecretLemonadeDrinkerDAVE · 07/05/2010 05:24

Idiots indeed. They had a 2am prediction I think (from last time, 5am at 19.00) I so want to lie down but the PC is up and behind so have to stay sitting on the sofa with the screen turned. God bless wireless keyboard though!

ok I concede defeat, haven't made DS2's lunch........DS1 made it this (yesterday?) morning so he can do it again when he gets up.....

I'm going to see if I can grab an hour on the sofa before DS3 wakes up..........would have managed the whole night had I not had such little sleep on Wednesday night
