Talking with a Scots mate in the Bush Fire Brigade this evening (who has not lived in Scotland for over 40 years) and he is totally fired up over nationalism and wants a vote to put his cross in the 'yes' box.
Would he be entitled? Is he relevant?
And if he is then is my wife's mother who, whilst born in Australia, was the daughter of an emigre Scot from Tongue not also entitled? Or, indeed, my wife herself?
Or maybe another mate who was my best man for my second wedding who is a Yorkshireman through and through but now lives near Lossiemouth?
I fear that a great abyss awaits and one should heed the warnings as the first step into the bog is taken.
