Didn't bother in the end. I will vote tactically in the GE but there was nobody I wanted to vote for today.

Went up about half hour before polling station closed. Deserted. Judging from the ticks they had on the list the numbers who had bothered looked very low. Looked about 30%, if that.
I voted for Adolph as usual.

We currently have a UKIP councillor who has actually got off his arse and made a bit of a difference to some local projects so he's getting my vote.
