Giant steps

Westminster sent their big political guns up to Scotland today, but we were ready for them.

Political rant to get it over with - I was ever so slightly on the 'YES' side of the debate, until the bigwigs in London had a poll induced panic attack at the weekend, and started tossing their loose change over the border. At this late stage, and after many postal votes have already been cast, they're promising the Scots political goodies far beyond anything previously on the table. We've been patronised like this before, and it's never ended well. So, for the avoidance of doubt, I'll be voting for independence next week.

In other news - I had a hospital appointment for a routine scan this morning. I arrived sharp, and was seen immediately by a Dr McLean. Scan completed, given the all clear, and finished in less than 20 minutes. On the way out, I commented to the receptionist about their efficiency. "It's always quick on a Wednesday", she said. How so? "Speedy McLean", she explained. Hopefully thorough as well as speedy.
