Kay has a crush on a bald cop (10 bent votes downgraded to 4). She's off to find out whats happening on social media. Sky fails to report a Kay Burley wankathon taking place in Ireland.

Sky shows a bunch of YES people indoors having tea and coffee for one of the constituencies: "they look very quiet here, must not be confident."

Cut to a bunch of locked NO teenagers and students in Glasgow who only got excited when they noticed the camera was on: "you can see the optimism here, they feel they have it!"

...followed by one of the drunks shouting "f*** her in the p**sy!" (something that people kept shouting on Sky Sports Premiership transfer deadline day coverage about 2 weeks back) and them having to cut away.

Nice ninja edit job. And there I was off to google "millets".

PS Last time I checked, Jean Claude Van Damme & Christopher Lambert were two different people.

I'm on my phone so I couldn't click back and see the post that was quoted. The auto correct is also a Bollix (which it insisted on editing to Billy just now, it's like it's trying to tell me something).

Whenever I hear Lamberts name I hear Queen in the background of my head, but all I see is a guy with white hair wearing a rice paddy field type Asian hat...

If Clackmannenshire votes No, do they still get to transfer their surplus to Bertie Ahern's younger (and only marginally less shifty looking) brother?

So why is everyone so sure its a No? What did I miss?

Kirsty Wark was presenting a Newsnight with Brian Cox (not the physicist) outside some castle in Scotland a few days ago.

Referencing the crowd, someone roared the "F*** her in the p**sy!" as if on cue.

Wept laughing.

Eminent professor says losing by 3000 votes is not entirely good result for Yes campaign. Educated man, that.

Salmond and Cameron fight to the death.

Cameron looks in better shape, but Salmond is wiley and looks like he knows some tricks.

No.

It's the total number of votes that matters.

Aww please I hope so, I have £100 on YES to get at least 45.01.

46% wouldn't be the worst result for YES in fairness. Anything over 45% would be amazing.

Those 10 dodgy votes in Glasgow have made all the difference.
