Been and done my bit for democracy...

have scratched my mark upon the scraps of paper with the blunt pencil provided. I've also been to Aldi for wine and chocolate, I have a feeling I'm going to feel the need. My palms are sweating. This election scares me.

can you recommend a good news site for following the results?

I'm drying my hair then I'm off to make my mark too.

I'll also be getting something to drink.

I'm nervous, too, and I don't even live there.

Me? Scared? Nah, nerves of steel. Ping! ::hides behind sofa::

I've got a terrible feeling I'm going to be sitting up into the wee small hours chewing my fingers; and worse, whatever result we get I'm probably not going to like it. I'm doomed!

I'm with you all the way. Scary monsters. I think I may need to get very drunk indeed tonight. We'll be watching channel 4 and tweeting no doubt so I'll see you there. Gird your loins.

:-) Me, I voted a couple of weeks ago... and I'll go to bed at my usual time, waken in the morning, walk the dog, then maybe over my breakfast at 7am think of checking the results... because whoever gets in (or doesn't) I doubt it'll make much difference to the man (or woman) in the street. Because whoever gets in will have to deal with the same problems anyone else getting in would, and a top politician's 'programme' is less than meaningless. Practicality says that adjustments to their manifestos will have to be made.

Yes - I vote, but boy, I'm cynical. I'm totally opposed to 'party' in politics. A system of Government and Opposition automatically bars some of the more competent MPs from the Cabinet. During the war we had a coalition; it worked. So in the current financial climate, why can't we have a coalition again?

"This election scares me."

It scares me too. *Sigh*
However, I used my vote because of the women who fought and suffered for our right to vote.

I'm breaking out the wine now.
