It may be early, but The Guardian says exit polls indicate the NO vote should win. Anyone now what time we should know?

In about 5 hours time.

Glad I'm not depending on CNN. 110% :nono

Iona - which Scottish newspaper's website would you recommend I check for the latest news?

http://www.scotsman.com/

I can assure you that every British online newspaper will be keeping readers up-to-date.

Thank you. :)

I've been checking several (mainly the London Times), but a few I've looked at seem more like tabloids than legitimate news sources.

Try these Tented.

Just found out that Andy had voted "Yes" to separate. He got some pretty horrible abuse for it too. :nono

Well the divisions are pretty big among our Scottish brethren - slanging matches across all social media.

Personally, I veered toward the UK option.

do you want an indy Scotland ?.

YES...1'617'989.

NO....2'001'926.

Turnout was 85%/86% so..

in a total scottish population of 5.35million that means that 1.61million wanted an indy Scotland, even though YES lost its still a big number of the population.

Relieved to still be British. It's been a very stressful time. I'll be glad to see Andy back in action next week. I think it might be quite calming after all the intense politics of these past few weeks. I may not agree with his politics but I still love my boy.

I think you're confusing Rick Santorum with Rick Perry.

is bodybuilding comps under the WADA antidrugs umbrella ?..

was it a drugs free for all in the late 1970s when arnie and lou farrago (pre hulk:snigger) were competing ?, although I suppose not many performance enhancing drugs were around all those years ago :huh: or were theaa any drug tests at all ?.:idea:
