What ALL of them bloody hell, that must be some huge display, nightmare policing I'd imagine, crowd control for about 5 million people

Ah, the sour grapes of delusion. She consistently went wrong week after week. Should have gone before last night to be fair.

Haven't mobile phones made their way up to Scotland yet?

I'm English and I live in Scotland and from my experience Bonfire night is celebrated less here than when I lived in England...........before I get shot, it's just my experience!

I am sure you could write the same just about any singer not being very well liked by many people.

They have, but as you can see, their connection is somewhat limited.

I live in Scotland, and I wasn't oot and aboot, I still didn't vote for Luly though

How were the fireworks on Glasgow Green, it must have been a bit of a squash with the whole of Scotalnd there?

It was incredibly crowded, particularly when everyone tried to get their special tin mobiles out and realised that they couldn't vote for Lulu because of the lack of reception.

You should have been there, everyone was cursing and singing "shout", it wasn't a pretty sight.

So the ardent fans of Lulu chose to go to a Guy fawkes night which happens every year instead of watching their idol who was only in the competition this year ?

It's a wonder you weren't trampled to death in the riot of anger, it's lucky they couldn't get through on the phones to find result. I'm so glad you escaped without harm!

HA! Whatever! How can we discuss something sensible when the whole OP is a derisory wind-up? As I said git o'er yersel' and lang may yer lum reek.

Including Lulu herself.

this is a joke right i lept up and down when her name was called out with joy

No she wasn't well liked as far as I know either


The toilets were unimaginable and I am only just on my way back to Aberdeen after getting away. The thought of poor Lulu being deserted in her hour of need brings tears to a glass eye.

Oh just a minute there are mobile phones here in Scotland.

Och, haud yer wheesht ye wee ned. The Family Ness are more Scottish than her, and the accents on that make my ears bleed. Much like "Weeeeeeeeeeeelllllll..."

This is my fave thread on this board!

Yes, obviously, the population of each country should be given every opportunity to vote for celebs of the same nationality. Since it necessarily follows - Scottish: vote Lulu.

Strictly will now have to do something about the time difference between Australia and the UK. Otherwise Jason and Holly will be unfairly disadvantaged.

And the producers will have to ensure equal numbers of each nationality so as not to split the vote.

That would be because they were being serious, just take a look at the rest of their posts, although, actually, I wouldn't really recommend it as they're a tad delusional.

You have a fine line in understatement.

Everyone knows the Scots would vote for a steaming turd if it had a whiff of a Scottish accent. Thank heavens they were preoccupied on Saturday.

Many Scots can be very parochial and turn against anyone who is successful outside Scotland.

Though Sean Connery seems to get away with being a tax exile.

This is a wind up surely.
She wasn't even in Widdies class

(Of course, there is a whole 'political' subtext to the idea of having only green fireworks in Glasgow, on a night which commemorates an act with similar 'political' subtexts. )

Not that any of that is a fraction as entertaining as your post!! Loved it!

Are you sure? Aren't they a similar age?
