Roll call

Posted on September 06, 2013 by

Okay, it’s going to be FAR too much work to plough through well over 500 comments in the previous thread to work this out, so let’s do it the easy way. If you’re planning to attend the march and rally on Calton Hill later this month, please post ONCE in the comments below. (Put anything you like in that one comment, though – jokes, pictures of cute kittens, links to comical tweets by Duncan Bannatyne, whatever.)

rollcall

Please DON’T post if you’re NOT going or aren’t sure, and please DON’T conduct discussions in this thread – use the old one for that. One post per attendee. Any post breaching these rules will be deleted mercilessly and with extreme prejudice. Cheers!

I am voting YES, not just for myself, but most importantly for him so that he has an affordable education, so that he doesn’t have the personal stress of looking after his parents when they are old and infirm, so that when he is older, his vote actiually counts to a democratic society that has the ability to chose its own path.
Anything else is not good enough for his future.
Hail Alba

Run through your funds already and so now moonlighting for MI5 Rev?
 
It may just be a rumour that I’m debating whether to plan on attending. Then again, any suggestion that I might consider such profoundly undemocratic action, is based on insufficient information and so might be considered debatable.

Tearlach

Expect a couple of MacDaids from the far North….
 
Cue the music – “I’ve just come down from the Isle of Skye, I’m no very big and I’m awful shy”.
 
Apparantly Andy Stewart wrote the song in 10 minutes while he sat, trouserless, in the lavatory of a recording studio. And it featured in a episode of  Terminator, the Sarah Connor Chronicles. Honest.
 
I just love it for the Elvis impression at the end – cracked me up as an 10 year old and cracks me up now.

Alasdair Mark

Present.

Quinie frae Angus

Definitely going. Wouldn’t miss it for the world. I expect there will be thousands more this year than there were last year, and it’s important we show the “undecideds” the huge and growing groundswell of support there is now for “Yes” – among a huge diversity of folk of all different backgrounds and interests. Women for Indy; Labour for Indy; Lib Dems for Indy; Celtic & Rangers Fans for Indy; Witches for Indy!! Not to mention all the geographical YES groups from all over Scotland. The variety of grassroots groups that have emerged is endless, and truly inspiring. The BT campaign will never be able to pull off such a diverse and “truly together” range of voices and perspectives all rooting for the same cause.  
 
Also it’s really important that we show the biased machine elements within the Scottish MSM, and the Whitehall/Westminster/Millbank/Pacific Quay caucus, that their tactics are just not going to work. The power and control they once wielded is seriously weakened. Thank goodness for the internet. Thank goodness for Wings of Scotland, Newsnet Scotland, BBC Scotlandshire, and ALL the other great pro-indy blogs that have totally turned this game around.
 
This is the most exciting thing I have ever been involved in. Our country is going to SPARKLE INTO LIFE once we are independent!
 
And for all those who would love to come but can’t, don’t worry, we’ll be cheering and singing extra loudly on your behalf! 

Patrician

Can I give out a big hello to my mates at GCHQ to let them know I’ll be there too and can I ask that they take a better photo this time as the last one was crap.
Watching you, watching me 😉

The Water Beastie

Made sure of a flight back from the Far East (aye, even beyond Musselburgh) for that very weekend – will probably also have two other voters in tow, one from the Deep South, the other from Germany, but both eligible residents of our fair land…..
Apart from Man in the Jar, any other Alex Harvey WoS members coming?  🙂
“From the North came the Furry Tyrannosaurs…..”

It’s shaping up to be a memorable day indeed!
