Hi Borderschat, welcome to the forums!

This site has been on the go for just under 2 and a half years now, inc. September 2005.

With a topic as niche as Scottish Politics on a web forum however, we struggle to attract members rapidly.

Hiyaz!

Apparently I'm a Scottish Independance noob and so was advised to check these forums out. Most of the posts are a bit long for me though Razz

Daisy the issues regarding the independance of Scotland is not something that can be spoken about in a couple of sentences

Some of the longer more 'detailed' posts can be quite intimidating though if you're just finding your feet. Hang about daisy, and I'm sure that as time goes by and you pick up more and more you'll soon get to grips with it.

There are also plenty of blogs and the like which take a fairly light-hearted approach to the issues making it a bit easier to digest. although when you boil it down to the basics, it's an 'aye' or a 'naw' based on whatever you do know of it. For someone like me it's easy, it's mostly heart anyway Wink
