The cost of independence is unknown. Anyone basing their vote on that is a simpleton. It will take 5 years to change things which is plenty of time.

It's quite a buzz. Especially at 18 years old. One of my mates jumped out one time and landed up to his waist in slurry <laugh>

Aye, i've done that too. The Army sent me on a Freefall Parachute course in Germany for 3 glorious weeks in the Middle of summer. Piss up every night in the Bad Lippspringe Bar. Happy days.

What caught me by surprise was the silence. Too used to seeing it on film where a microphone is picking up wind rush, when in actual fact it's silent. Especially after yer chute has opened.

I had the great luck of jumping at sunset, from 12,000 feet, 8000 freefall, and seeing the setting sun as I descended through the very little cloud cover there was that day. I was enjoying myself so much I near **** maself when my tandem diver spoke to me. That's when I realised the silence.

We descended the last 2000 feet doing spins cos I was loving it. I, seriously, only just stopped short of kissing my tandem diver because he'd given me such a great time.

Marvellous.

It's magical.

To the right of that photo are some football pitches, I landed in the middle of a game once.
 
It's an endorphin rush that no drug can ever even hope to match, and never will.

Here&#8217;s a heart-warming story of how we&#8217;re Better Together. Word reached me that some of Scotland&#8217;s burgeoning industry of food banks were struggling to pay the rental on their premises. In particular, I was told that in Glasgow council-run properties used for this purpose were charged a full commercial rent.

If it wasn&#8217;t for the help of Celtic Football Club who pay a monthly sum to cover the rent, the food bank would need to relocate or disband. Is this what we expect from a Labour authority at a time of biting austerity? Interestingly, the reply isn&#8217;t from the council as such, it&#8217;s from their arms length property organisation. Does this mean that the politicians escape responsibility? Have they no way of ameliorating the pressures on a socially important project by restricting the rents?
