Poll - Does Scotland really want to go it alone?

[little plum]

Perhaps someone who actually comes from over there ?

You don't have to go that far, just ask a U.K. holiday maker. The popular destinations are full of eastern block nationals and by all accounts they surpass that other nation we hate to share a hotel with. I'm not sure if this is related to independence or the collapse of communism.

Sorry, had had a wee whiskey before posting.

Hope you're not suffering this morning, because of It ?
Don't know how you can drink the stuff ?
The very smell of it is enough to make me feel ill.

while red wine is my drink of choice I have a liking for an Islay malt...

[Richard]

Tried Red Wine once, many years ago, and ended up with the 'mother' of all head-aches for about 3 day's.
NEVER AGAIN.

Didn't really like the taste either, so I try to stick to Magners Irish Cider or If I can't get that I will take
Bulmers English Cider, which is similar but not quite as good.

I had a conversation with a Ukrainian woman in march of this year. She is a nurse and i asked what was the main effect of independence.She said instability and uncertainty about the future. There are massive social problems especially among the young. There are loads of folk living rough in the cities. The picture she painted was not pleasant.Back to BRITAIN,when i went for my paper this morning i passed the old burgh chambers and there was our national flag the union jack fluttering in the breeze.It made me smile and proud. I thought of our Queen at Epsom yesterday and how happy she was and really enjoying herself. The joy she brings to so many people and then I thought of those miserable saddoes the anti- monarchists.Even MR CHUCKLES knows a good thing when he sees one.

I assume she was in Britain? (the Ukranian woman) I have no problem with the queen, she"s done a good job..a bit expensive though. I look forward to Scotland being a free country again ..warts and all, and hope it will happen in my lifetime!

Richard, you may be sensitive tl sulphur? Some red wines have sulphites in them.

[Richard]

Thank's for that, Morag.

If I remember right, and I'm really scraping away at my memory here, I think I've read that advise before ?
And I think it was you talking to someone else about it, on this site, but on another thread ?
I think you could be right because I didn't feel right for, about, 2/3 days.


AYE, The sooner Independence arrives, the better.

. Back to the debate, the snp have tried to show that they have some good ideas which might persuade people to vote for them.In particular i like the 50 pence /unit on alcohol which off course will effect cider drinkers and why not?
