Well, it's been a fascinating, if sometimes tedious, run-up and conclusion to the referendum. It would have been very interesting to have seen a successful outcome, as for now it'll be pretty interesting to see how the political capital gained by the exercise competes alongside other slightly invigorated devolutionary movements from around the UK and the general rightwards drift that's currently happening in the run-up to the next general election. Manifestos

Also, if the Scottish turn-out is boosted by 5% in that election, I'd say yesterday's exercise was quite a success.


In other news, I scrapped our worthy old car yesterday. It made it past 200,800 miles, but sadly was scuppered by the pesky MoT being too expensive.
