So you want the UK to be independent but not Scotland. Interesting.

No doubt people across the planet will debate it online. That can only be a good thing. Nothing beats the reality of talking to fellow voters. In the cold light of day, they and they alone will decide Scotland's future. :D

Not unless you intend moving to live in Scotland you won't. :lol:

I and thousands like me relish the debate. :lol:

Very perceptive as it turned out. You don't do lottery numbers by any chance.

Interesting times ahead. Hopefully with hard work on our part and a lot of goodwill from across the globe as well as from our nearest neighbour we can build a fairer society that is a beacon of hope to people around the world.

As someone who lives in Scotland the country would need a small defence force but Nato would be a no no to those with my politics. Not much point in gaining independence in a small country and then joining with world superpowers to attack other small countries around the globe. I want Scotland...

I can remember the October 1974 general election, the second election to be held that year. The SNP won 11 seats and the Prime Minister of the time, Harold Wilson, said "its not the 11 seats they won but the 44 seconds that worried me". Last thursday all those seconds came home to roost, big...

Still shocked by thursday's result. Thought the whole point of that strange voting system was to make sure nobody ever gained a majority. Still, we live in interesting times. Whatever happens now i suppose the railways north of border will always be called ScotRail.

Do you think the result in tomorrows Scottish election will play a part in deciding the outcome of the meeting on May 26th?

Any more updates on the Edinburgh trams?

Does anybody have a rough estimate of how much is lost revenue wise at the four stations named.

I believe the story goes that East Kilbride council stated they didn't want a senior football team and the possible baggage that might come with in the New Town. Sad and kinda petty.

Wouldn't say as such i'm into football, i'd more descibe myself as one of that nerdy group that have a interest in stadium architecture and social history. The most famous football stadium architect was a chap called Archiebald Leitch. Most of the original grounds in the UK can be traced back to...

Correct. Bet the bosses surf the net all day long. I know i do. :lol:

Back in the days when the Scottish Prison Service used converted single deckers with the odd window on it, it was a regular occurrence late in the afternoon to see the prison bus go between the Glasgow city centre courts and HMP Barlinnie. The prisoners had a habit of shouting abuse out of the...

Shotts line Carlisle to Kilmarnock Whifflet Line Paisley Canal Edinburgh to Aberdeen.

It was called Dundas St although most of the locals called it the Blue bus station since most of the buses that used it were blue and white from Scottish Midland. Killermont St bus station was only a couple of hundred yards away further up the street. Buchanan St replaced them both.

Correct, even today you can still see the odd drug addict but nowhere near the numbers of 20 years ago. Was a bit embarrassing to pass former school chums working on the streets of Glasgow. Making kerb crawling a crime made a massive difference to that area.

Nice castle though.
