[Closed] Well, Scotland got independence, thread.

Heres hoping. And no, im not Scottish. 👿

I hope so too - time for Scotland to strap on a pair of big-boy pants and be responsible for itself instead of always blaming others.

Well that's just fabulous isn't it.

Do I need a passport to cross the borders now?

I'm going to get lots of tinned food in. Can I still purchase a firearm in the rUK?

I'm already stocked up on Tunnocks.

Apocalypse added to calendar for 7am onwards Friday. By the sounds of it some folk will have hangovers that will make an apocalypse seem a preferred option.

"Hello, Greece? Do you have a paddle we can borrow?"

How long do we have to wait before we can blow up the the M74 at Gretna and leave them to it?

"Hello, Greece? Do you have a paddle we can borrow?"

That made me chuckle 🙂

Isn't the Cumbernauld on any given Saturday night?

according to some people on the other thread, England is now in [b][i][u]CHAOS!!!

All midges deported. Hot and cold running Irn bru taps installed in all homes. Oor Wullie made first minister (London can't have the monopoly on blonde, messy haired politicians. New currency created called the Jock. There will be 100 Jimmies to the Jock and a pint of heavy will cost 2 jock, 50 jimmies exactly.
Chris Hoy will be crowned king of Scotland.

Chris Hoy will be crowned king of Scotland.

Chris hoy, Mugabe is brushing his sporran as we speak.

Mugabe vs Idi Amin - now that would be interesting.

Idis dead I hope, my mate went to uni with one of his daughters.

Time to buy shares in removal companies?

Be glad to see the back of them TBH, I'm sure they think the same about the English. Actually they hate ''us' more as most English are indifferent towards them whereas there's a lot of deep rooted resentment/jingoism/racism north of the border.
Funny how they moan about Westminster/London centric news when we have had this rammed down our throats for months now, I wouldn't mind if I was allowed to vote YES too.

I'm hoping some good comes of it, like Lorraine Kelly disappearing from our TV screens, the alcoholism/obesity/life expectancy rates all improving in what remains of the U.K. And maybe we can stop moving the clocks an hour for a few farmers in the North

ZOMFG, you had to listen to national news that affects everyone? How awful for you.

Im not bothered about the news coverage, merely commenting on the fact that others in the far north of the U.K. often complain about the Westminster centric news (despite it being the center of government/policy and in the middle of the largest population and center of trade in the U.K)

If the yes vote wins I am thinking there will be a baby boom in 9 months time with Alex topping the charts of boys names.

So I chose not to invest in pickfords but in this,

Instead.

As I figure you need 9% when your birds look this rough,

Judging by MrSmiths post Scotlands burgeoning shoulder-chip manufacturers have a good export market.

"Far north of the UK" = "everywhere apart from London, including places further south" 😉

Time to raise export duty on Buckfast.

I hope it works out. Took a while at home (Ireland) but eventually we got it sorted. Admittedly we did have a civil war as well...so not ideal. Anwyay, I hope the people get what they want either way.

I'm glad Andy Murray can finally get off the fence

Be glad to see the back of them TBH, I'm sure they think the same about the English. Actually they hate ''us' more...

No one I know is voting Yes because of any hatred for the English.

Having said that, no one I know that is voting No is doing so out of love for the English.

Perhaps, just maybe, it's not actually about the English?

Nigel Farage is moving to Glasgow as its the only place outside the EU that he can get to without getting his feet wet or flying.
He's not got a good track record when it comes to flying.

good point, can’t we just leave them to get on with it and pop a note under the door when they have made a decision?

Mr Smith, have a plough through some of the many Indy related threads on this forum, and I guarantee you the anti Scottish comments outnumber the anti English ones at least ten fold. Anti English feelings up here are a bit of a myth, and only really kept going by some old timers and the daily record.

Anyway, whatever the result, I'm off to the lakes in a daring cross border raid tomorrow, big bloke on a Yeti, if anyone wants to try and kick me out!. 😀

I believe that's what that funny Salmond chap was after, yes.

Anti English feelings up here are a bit of a myth,

Utter b*llocks

Anti english sentiments in scotland certainly aren't a myth, any more than anti-scottish sentiments in england. It's just not what's driving 50% of the population to vote for independence.

Spot on Northwind.

Nice to see there isn't any generalising or stereotyping in this thread 😕

Northwind +1

In other news: glum tennis star's "Tweet" ensures booing at this year's Wimbledon Tennis Tourney...

Well 'glum tennis star' has now received tweets saying they wished he had been killed in the Dunblane incident..... 🙁

+1 Northwind. But fit I dinnae git is fit 'y they ah 'ink sir just a bunch o' kilt wearing, whiskey swillin' Braveheart wanna dies.

No mention of the awesome Right to Roam and how that opens up the whole beautiful country to Mountain Biking. Remember that chaps, Mountain Biking? The reason we all choose to get together and share our common interest. Oh and to dispel some of the Anti-English sentiment your all welcome in the event of a Yes or No outcome to come up and enjoy some of the cleanest air, best views and starriest skies you'll ever see.

your all welcome in the event of a Yes or No outcome to come up and enjoy some of the cleanest air, best views and starriest skies you'll ever see.

Why bother? If I have to go to a foreign country I might as well go to Finland instead.

Yes you will all be welcome. Obviously things will be bad for a while what with the economy crashing overnight, all the rioting, deep violent divisions, mass exodus etc. Just mind and bribe the armed border guards on the way in and you will be fine!

what money should I bring, as I will want to leave my sterling at home, as to prevent you chancers getting your hands on it.

So, how long before we have Dumfries & Galloway having their own vote to be annexed by the rUK?

Surely you've heard by now the new currency will be the Smackeroony, we don't need your English basturd money!

So, how long before we have Dumfries & Galloway having their own vote to be annexed by the rUK?

It might be a possibility.... but it's a huge region. Folk in Stranraer might vote totally differently to folk in Dumfries.
