All the talk is over now, and today it's about the people going out to vote. I sure hope the rain doesn't put them off........ I sent my postal vote off a while back.
I predict a increased majority for the Tories. Not saying if that's the right or wrong thing, just the way it is.
Once you look through the distractions of overexcited telly pundits, and polls all over the place, when push comes to shove, the vote will go for the Tories.
Hiding Diane Abbott away at this late stage of the game, was a few weeks too late..........
I went out in the pouring rain earlier, to vote - and got soaked! Hope it was worth it!
I guess I'll be stopping up late tonight watching the election results come in. Some people seem to think there is going to be a Brexit moment here, with a shock result.
No there won't. Corbyn is going to lose some of his parliamentary party. It's just a matter of how many.
Just a bit of photographer's fighting with handbags at dawn.........
Lol, yes!

I'll try to stay awake as long as I can. I usually try to see the results of my constituency, but they are annoyingly slow with their counting!
Yeah, I think we all know that the Tories will win overall - it's just a matter of how many seats. Expect there will be a few surprises along the way, in various marginals...
Scotland is going to be interesting. How many seats will the SNP lose? How many will the Tories gain (any gains are a bonus)? Will Labour and the Lib Dems recover any of their seats?
How well will the Tory party be able to keep the economy going after the elections? Growth is not there as companies are voting with their feet, markets are also pounding the pound (pun intended) and the social expenditure cuts will only further a recession.
Jeremy Corbyn is smiling like a Cheshire cat. You would think he had won the election! What he has done by increasing the amount of Labour MPs is ensuring 'New' Labour is dead and buried. This result ensures he carries on as leader, and no more back stabbing from the Parliamentary party.
Plus Diane Abbott can now have a miraculous recovery from illness, and will be all over our tv screens like a rash.
The real loser is Theresa May. Even though she has won the election, she had a disastrous campaign, and is weakened by the result. Not a good way to go into Brexit talks starting in ten days. She may hang on as PM for now, but long term she is a dead PM walking. The Tories don't like losers, and the background boys will see the result of this election as a loss.
