Already done.

I am hopeful (but panicking a lot that the labour Liars will form a coalition with the Lib Loonies) that the Tories will get a majority, perhaps only a small majority BUT as long as it is a majority of seats, they win!

My wife is (possibly) due to give birth tomorrow so I may have some TV to watch as she's moaning late in the evening.

And when she finally goes into labour I just hope it's the mildly painful type and not the really fking uncomfortable st PITA type we've had to put up with for the last 13 years wink

There's usually a race for the first constituency to declare, isn't there?

I guess we'll know the first one just after midnight, the overall by about mid-morning Friday and the date of the next election on Sunday after the hung/hanged members have thrashed out what they're gonna do next? hehe

Sunderland South or something similar and they have won the race every year for the last 5.

Not surprised, lazy bds don't work so they've got lots of time to practice wink

You've got to wonder how accurate they are though, haven't you? smile

"Masterful achievement" and "Gordon Brown".

I'm afraid the two concepts are mutually exclusive.

The DVD cover below shows a more realistic concept for "Labour: The Movie"

Some time in the afternoon, not sure when but the polling station is a short walk so it's easy to get to.

It's the same every time:

First there's a queue because "...we're not quite ready yet..."

Then, when I get to the front of the queue and show the details on my card, there's a lot of searching the list, followed by the one old biddy turning to the other and saying I can't find ... Road. To which the other looks at me and says "YOU DON'T VOTE HERE" to which I read the address of the polling station off the polling card and suggest they look on the list under CCC not CCB and then they suddenly decide that CCC follows CCB and is their last few sheets.....

Honestly - if I was an old person and just told "YOU DON'T VOTE HERE"....

You get a good indication by around 2am, a solid indication by 6am - the final result won't be known until 27/28 May as someone died in Thirsk, so they aren't voting until then.

Been for a walk with the wife and kids this morning to the polling station. Fingers crossed as many people as possible get off their backsides today and vote.
