          .... if Salmond was planning to bring a Stuart back I might vote 'Yes'...is Duke Franz still alive? If we had a German as our king it might be easier to swing the EU thing.
          There is no DevoMax on offer, there is a few extra powers not even agreed yet and already being rejected by Tory backbenches. Be clear if you vote No you are voting for the status quo and will more likely get bent over and rammed by Westminster..

            Do you only know one person in Glasgow?

            I sat in a cafe there on Saturday on byres road and me and a mate (Yes voter) counted the badges walking by, the score was 33 Yes and 27 No.
            Balloons gave it to Yes, Cars with flags out of windows gave it to No.

            I reckon the split in my place of work is more No than Yes and in my Wife's it's more Yes.

            I have three kids, one eligible to Vote. He can tell me on Friday how he voted - it's his choice.

            It'll be close, but I also sense a weariness with it all. Just wish it was Friday tbh.

                Another poll that didn't ask me

                "of the 275 freelancers polled". Oh dear, it looks like it will be a No then...

                    To me, that is a better way of getting an accurate poll than phoning people up at random and expecting them to tell you the truth.

                    Unless those nasty cybernats are forcing the nice No people to bet money on Yes

                      Do you think some people are voting Yes purely because they want to be a 'proper' EU member (unlike the UK's slightly maverick membership status) rather than because they GAS about independence?
