if your voting on Thursday PLEASE take your own pens/pencils

DH and myself both forgot about taking pencils when we voted this morning. There was a huge box of teeny tiny pencils, like there used to be for Argos stores, and we could use one of those and take them away with us. All the helpers were very smiley and nice.

Well I hope your not muddling me up suziewoozie and referring to me as the ‘other blue’ if you read my post again you ll see I didn’t sneer at anyone, simply said it was totally uneccessary ‘in my opinion’

I was NOT the person who mentioned jobsworthy or bean counting that was another poster

I m getting fed up of taking flack for other peoples posts second time in two days

Sorry for the misunderstanding - when I replied to BlueSky I was agreeing with her and your first post - both of which questioned the policy but were not rude about the implementers of the policy. I replied to that poster (grandMattie) quite clearly but am sorry for subsequent mix up

Just back from voting. It was well organised and very safe. Hand sanitiser as soon as you went in and also available on the way out.I took my own pen but there were pencils available if need be.
Nothing to get worried about, but if you were worried you could have had a postal vote.

Just back from voting. there were pencils available that were wiped with anticbac after use.

Thanks suziewoozie all good

I missed the stubby little pencil on a bit of string. IMO it was part of the ritual.

The SNP party gave us one with some canvassing leaflets so I took that with me , but was offered a super one from the SLD party so took that too .

When I went to vote today the person who was giving out the voting paper was licking her fingers to separate the pages then handing them over. Not very hygienic in "normal times".
