    This did make me chuckle...I was in Glasgow a couple of years ago for a family birthday and after a couple of days of having square sausage served with my breakfast, I aked the waitress if I could have "normal" sausage.....I was served up the square, told my Glaswegian uncle, he was roaring with laughter, "that is normal sausage up here!!":eek::eek::rotfl::rotfl:

    You've heard of Caesar Salad and Waldorf Salad?

    Well, there's a pub in Glasgow that has a Glasgow Salad on the menu






















    It's a plate of chips :rotfl:

    I don't think this is true, surely those not-quite-majority (as poll suggest it will be close either way) would, if forced to be independent contrary to their vote, be unhappy and continue to voice that unhappiness, in the same way that some nationalists do now? I think it should only count if a significant percentage votes for independence, because a small margin doesn't tell me that enough people actually want it permanently and irreversibly.

    Good arguments, that get us way into other things. Shall we return to and discuss these after the result? Though, arguably :think:maybe we should just be on money-saving stuff. Suffice to say, for now, that's how democracy works. Higher number of votes (even if by one) wins. (Of course, we have 39% - or lower - of votes going to winning political parties in UK elections in the past.)
  • Can I just add a bit to the referendum debate....

    I will be going to vote tomorrow, having listened to all sides, etc etc, and I think when I walk out of the polling station, I'll burst into tears. It's such a big decision for each one of us, and not made easily or lightly.

    I also intend to sit up tomorrow night to watch the count!!

    I didn't mean to suggest we have *no* weight at all on the world stage, opposite of "any" is not always completely "no";). Bit like 0.9999999... recurring is exactly equal to 1, even though it does not appear to be. I do think Britain is a much declined/declining force - and maybe two parts will create interest and in fact have two voices at a table instead of one, and often in agreement. I think Europe has more weight - but that's getting into a whole new argument. (Alright, I was not as careful as I should have been - I should have said something like Britain's imagination that it has much influence... or has a deal (or a great deal) of influence...something like that.)

    Technically we also have European citizenship since the Maastricht Treaty (yes, some of my politics is that outdated:o:D) but do any of us see it that way? (I once put "European" and "British" on a form and was perceived as being rather strange - but, that, legally, politically, following Maastricht, was the true position.)

    What if I want to be English (or even European and not English, or English and European)? Why is being British forced onto me? Again, I feel there is a lot of sentimentality here - or, rather, "sentimental attachment" - and me saying this will doubtless infuriate as it strikes at the heart of the emotion. But, it does press at those emotional concepts such as people's own identity and what they perceive themselves to be.

    No is not unpatriotic. But neither is yes and taking control (of most things, that can politically be offered, e.g. the "sentimental" pound not being one of those things:rotfl:) for yourself.

    I am being provocative a little, btw, in my last parenthesised part (about the pound).

    Purely my personal view but I wouldn't rule out us not being part of the EU at some point in the future.

    And with all the due respect that you know I have for you, there is sentimentality involved. That's not wrong, it's human nature. You maybe lack sentimentality because of the way you think? Which isn't wrong.....just different :)

    ........if the country was run by autistic people :p :eek: :D
