Because we're all doomed.

If it's a yes majority it will be a clusterfk of biblical proportions.
Anyone with any sense will get the fk out at the first opportunity.

The short answer is because I'm British. For now this is as much my country as anyone elses, but if it ceases to be the UK that is no longer true. I've contributed to this country for my entire adult life, but now it may well render me a foreigner, as it simultaneously throws away the things I value most. This is democracy so I have to accept this, but I do not have to accept the idea of starting a family under a flag which will have lost all meaning to me whilst I work to pay for your obese demagogue.

That and as neelyp says I really do think we're fked.

away back to your own country. Ideally located near Anglesey so I have somewhere to stay next year when doing track days

Dunno where we'll end up as she won't talk about it. She's more of a hide head in sand worrier, whereas I like to prepare for the worst possible scenario so I'm almost always pleasantly surprised.

She mentioned Bermuda yesterday. Looks awesome but I'm not sure their "road" would really be great for motoring.

I went the furthest north I've ever been this weekend to Edinburgh. Don't think I met a single Scottish person there though.
I stayed near melrose and it was all very beautiful. No one got glassed no one was on heroin and all the toilets I encountered were very pleasant. My only other Scottish encounter of train spotting seems to be completely wrong. The roads from Northumbria up to Edinburgh were awesome aswell. I'm gonna have to go up on the bike next year. Hope I don't have to take my passport though as it'd be a minor annoyance.

I don't get it. Are you being made redundant, or choosing to resign and leave your home if Scotland goes independent?

To be fair, it's potentially the biggest shake up in UK history for centuries, so it's to be expected it's on the news...

Personally I'm sure that the vote will go no. Up until the last minute there'll be loads saying they're going to vote yes, but when it comes to the crunch there's no way that anyone can believe it's really a good thing?!

I suspect for many Scots they'd much rather never have to actually vote. If the vote goes no then they can't moan about being a part of the UK any more hehe

If it comes to a vote, how many Scots actually know how to spell 'X'...? wink

I'm a quarter Scots, a quarter Irish and the rest Cornish, by the way...

They won't have enough money for the batteries for the speed gun, so you'll be fine.

I'm not being made redundant.

It isn't a choice.
