I do hope that if the vote goes to yes then Hadrians Wall will be refurb'ed and manned to prevent any skirt-wearing border hoppers trying to make their way to a civilised country.

I'm sure a number of shandy drinking morris dancing ankle clanking southerners would want that. But you might find the wall serves more purpose keeping northern folks in England.

Speaking of skirt-wearing, went to Octoberfest in me skirt, what a reception I got from the ladies

The Western Isles? The outer Hebrides? There's a lot of islands, which ones?

All of them, what's good for the goose...

Less Scots working on English defence projects!

Why is it that no-one up there can see that they only thing that they will achieve by getting loose is to open up a big fat underbelly of cash for the post conflict reconstruction specialists to steal.

The boom in contracts for SC cleared and government aligned specialists will go through the flipping roof. The cash will never make it down to the ground level of peasants.

London will be wanting independence, closely followed by Edingburgh and Cardiff no doubt
