To Vote or not to Vote that is the question
Yesterday’s beautiful day has been followed by a dull, nondescript morning. I have come down from the window ledge as the scene outside is as boring as the weather, although I can hear Jack complaining about something nextdoor. The polling stations are open and the channels on the oblong box are united in shunning all possibilities of a political story. This is probably the calm before the storm, as we will no doubt be inundated if there is a hung Parliament she says. He is still hoping they are going to hang the lot of them, that way we can be sure of a change.
Having seen the up roar in Greece following the declaration of how they must tackle their deficit, I imagine Nick Clegg and David Cameron are voting Labour and Gordon Brown has probably voted BNP.
My scribe has found a small piece on the Telegraph web site which will be of news to the Dear Ones in the US of A. General Election Live says that ’07:51 A fracas at David Cameron’s polling station. Two men, one dressed in a blazer and boater, have unfurled a large banner at Spelsbury Memorial Hall in Witney, Oxfordshire, featuring a picture of the Tory leader with the slogan “Britons know your place. Vote Eton – vote Tory.” The police are on their way…’. We will, I am told, vote this evening, at least one of us will. My floating voter still seems to believe that her vote has no value, in this ultra safe Conservatory seat. According to the same source, polling is brisk even now at this relatively early hour of the morning, in some places in the big smoke.
Apparently John Prescott has posted a last-minute rallying call to Labour activists on YouTube. My scribe says for once being unable to acquire a large enough download speed to accommodate You Tube is a definite asset. Happy voting.
I am of course

We have placed our cross in the appropriate box. Now all we can do is sit, wait and PRAY.
