Election night plans

What's everyone up to?

There's plenty of hubs that will open all night, the yes hub in Liberton for example will be having a social event for activists. I'm sure the Radical Road pub will be open all night as well.

I've not been asked to attend the count yet, I'm hoping to and I normally go but it's a bit early yet.

What's everyone else up to?

Probably sit and watch it in the house. I'm working the next day though so might wake up at 3AM to catch Perth vote and Glasgow meltdown.

I'm working the next day with absolutely no prospect of getting it off.

Regardless, I'll stay up all night, one hand down my pants, the other grasping a midori and lemonade. Sweet.

I'm not 100% sure what shift I'm going to be on, so I could be working through the entire thing. Which I wouldn't really mind, because it'd mean I got the shift I wanted.

If not, just stay in the house, few beers, and watch the drama unfold.

This all seems to good to be true tbh, I'm not getting my hopes up tooooo much

Anyways posted this elsewhere, taking the next day off to get pished with my mate who's finishing 4 years of Uni on the 8th with so I'll stay up all night with some food, catch most of the results coming in, wee nap in the morning, up for noon, ready, quick train to Dundee, pub/halls to celebrate 8) 8) 8)

My flatmate has an exam the next day so, I might go to the Union and hopefully see a variety of utterly distraught mix of No Voters, student politicians and Green Party losers.

A shot for every major Scottish Labour seat gone might be lethal.

Perfecting my Dale Carrick impersonation for when Jim Murphy loses his seat on national television.

Seeing you fight through those tears alongside him with your 47 votes will be glorious.

If it goes as expected I'll be cracking in about that bottle of malt that I bought for the referendum night.

I'll not lie, it has been a bitter pill looking at that b*****d every time I opened the kitchen cupboard where I've kept it...especially after I found out the distiller William Grant & Sons donated to Better Together :(

Still. If it gets me pished as I laugh my cock off at the likes of Curran getting her jotters it will have served its purpose :thumsup2

Mate you're going to get three votes. You're not in a position to be mocking anybody, even Murphy.

To be fair to him, he's well aware he's on a hiding to nothing. Jim Murphy is an arsehole that's getting what he deserves. Regardless of party affiliation (except Slab) it'll be a moment we can all celebrate together and point and laugh at the Sevco of politics.

That would be my absolute highlight. Please say your canvassers are finding such?

Absolutely, I can't wait. But if I was standing against him and wasn't going to get enough votes to fill a room I wouldn't be too smarmy about it personally.

To be fair, I would love the opportunity to stand there and troll the UK by saying that "Even though I've lost my deposit, I'm still confident that my bestest pals Alistair, Charlie, Danny, Willie, Alan & all my other LibDem pals have retained theirs... Pity we've not retained any seats though..."
