Those vile Nats at it again today in Perth.
In all seriousness today has been a beautiful day and the photos and videos coming in from the events around the country has me sitting here thinking, we're so close to this and we're never going to get this close again. This has to happen.

Tbf Salmond had to give a slap down to Jim Sillars for threatening the businesses speaking out their doubts about a Yes vote with a 'day of reckoning', so it's not all been rosy.
Genuinely is gonna be too close to call though, although I do fancy Yes will win at somewhat of a canter as I think though the polls are close, it's more likely that Yes voters will go out and actually vote.

He's hardly "givin him a slap down". Sillars clarified his comments straight away. I think it's understandable that he can use some very emotional language considering what he must have lived through in the last 5 months.

I'm calling "no" by less than 1,000 votes. Westminster will rig it somehow.

50.1/49.9 for the lols
I genuinely don't care which way it goes either. For the quieter minority of Yes voters (those who have it across Twitter pictures can piss off) I'll be happy for them. For the No voters who like this country and don't wanna potentially live worse off I'll feel sorry for. All I know is I'll not see the majority of the early fallout either way so it doesn't concern me.

Potato Potato (that really doesn't work online). Salmond moved to distance himself from the comments, and rightly so. Turned into a campaign of intimidation from the Yes campaign and fearmongering from the No campaign. When it should be inspiration from the Yes campaign and reassurance from the No campaign.
At least turnout should be huge, so either way they've got people interested and shown what a big vote it is for Scotland.
If it's even close there'll be a recount, either side won't let it go. It'll drag till the weekend at least.

All you Scots better be watching the Proms.
If you get independence you won't be able to sing Jerusalem with us anymore.
That's a good enough reason to vote No.

Oh, and do you no longer want to be associated with the greatest nation in the world?
Sun never sets on the British empire etc.
I know there's that whole small issue of the murder and pillaging of your country a few hundred years back, but don't you feel slightly patriotic that you helped your big brother conquer the world?
