        Even if its a Yes, Scotland is still part of the UK until 2018, so that's plenty of time for anyone who wants to to leg it south of the border. Not sure how they'd do so realistically in many cases. I'd bet a fiver that house prices north of the border drop like a stone, while prices in Northumberland and Cumbria might rise quite significantly.

        Awwww.....we all luvs yer FC! :grphg: And if push come to shove in England there's always this little island here. :)

        It's a funny thing, my other half said today if Scotland votes yes then we should consider moving there. Property prices will no doubt fall if an Exodus happens.

            Thanks @Sheal - I would love to live on the Isle; looks beautiful going by your photos :)

            If there is an exodus, you can bet the majority that are left are the ones that you wouldn't want as neighbours......

                You're more than welcome FC! :) Hmmmm......great buses here, Volvo's and Merc's but lousy management and timetable, you'd be well in but for one snag....you'd need a work permit!

                I don't want neighbours, just a croft hidden away in the Highlands somewhere, perfect! :)

                Night, night, sleep tight!

                    Careful how you say that Kristen! There's quite a few people sitting on the French coast might be interested. :)

                        I wouldn't know Kristen but they might mis-interpret the word asylum and come seeking. :)

                        The French word is the same for both ... a trap for the unwary, eh? :)
