  1. It doesn't have to, but it would make the tribute known to a wider public.
  2. That'll be a NO then. How long before the Shetlands, Orkneys and outer Isles start pushing for self-determination? From what I was told the Orcadians feel more affinity to Norway than they do to Edinburgh. Is this so?
  3. It would have to be Itchen so that it would be seen on TV.
  4. Nobody should choose to have kids and expect others to pay to support them. 'Rights' are not inherent, they ae bestowed by the rest of society.
  5. I like the sound of that
  6. Joining the Eurozone will probably take longer than they might think: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/scottish-independence/11099167/Spanish-warn-independent-Scotland-would-get-euro-not-pound.html
  7. Tempting, very tempting...
  8. This is the sad truth.
  9. But what is there to comment about? Somebody starts a rumour on an obscure internet forum and others then expect the club to respond within a couple of hours. You wouldn't expect any organisation to spend money employing somebody just to sit and read posts on here all day, would you? (Although judging by the amount of time that some of us spend on here that is exactly what seems to be happening. )
  10. I thought you liked conspiracies
  11. Ah! So the police are in on the conspiracy too.
  12. Have you asked them? Why should they have to keep mollycoddling half a dozen fans on an Internet forum? Let them get on with their jobs, please.
  13. Just the important inaccuracies. We don't want to be here all day
  14. Good idea, but the names would need shedloads of syllables to prevent them being used instead.
  15. It's a start...
  16. That should be 'We've run up loads of debt' or more accurately 'the incompetent Scots Pillocks that were in charge of the UK for 13 years ran up loads of debt'. Effectively the wife's been spending more than the husband's been earning.
  17. As you say, Scotland can continue to use the Pound, or any other currency barring perhaps the Euro, in much the same manner as Gibraltar does now or Ireland did at a de facto fixed rate until 1979 until eventually adopting the Euro in 2002. Of course this would mean that all major economic decisions would be severely restricted and they would not be able to print their own extra inflationary money and would suffer the consequences when we did the same.
  18. The biggest pollutant on this Earth of ours is human beings. Is it morally right to overload it with yet more?
  19. I'm not bothered. I have to think twice to remember the stand I sit in.
  20. It's a fundamental of after-sales care. If someone is pleased with a product it's "this thing I bought..." But if they're not happy it's "this sh1t you sold me..."
  21. Absolutely after independence replace 'Scotland' with 'France' and you get the general idea.
  22. All and any tributes gratefully accepted, thanks.
  23. Are there two of us?
