Best time of the day, this - when they're all out. | 0:00:06 | 0:00:09 | |
Nice and quiet. | 0:00:09 | 0:00:12 | |
Gives you time to think. | 0:00:12 | 0:00:13 | |
Helps you clear your head. | 0:00:13 | 0:00:15 | |
Shame it only lasts for two minutes. | 0:00:15 | 0:00:17 | |
Do you know? | 0:00:20 | 0:00:22 | |
My Paul is worse than the telly these days. | 0:00:22 | 0:00:24 | |
He will NOT leave off about the referendum. | 0:00:24 | 0:00:27 | |
He started again, first thing this morning. | 0:00:27 | 0:00:29 | |
"Have you made a decision yet?" | 0:00:29 | 0:00:31 | |
I was like, "It's too early to be discussing politics. | 0:00:31 | 0:00:34 | |
"Eat your cereal." | 0:00:34 | 0:00:36 | |
So, he starts to ask the kids. I mean, honestly?! | 0:00:36 | 0:00:38 | |
Like he'll get any sense out of them. | 0:00:38 | 0:00:40 | |
I mean, they never have their heads out their phones. | 0:00:40 | 0:00:43 | |
Don't get me wrong, I know how important this vote is, | 0:00:43 | 0:00:47 | |
and there's not much time left for me to make a decision, | 0:00:47 | 0:00:50 | |
but there's only so many hours in the day | 0:00:50 | 0:00:52 | |
and there's a lot to weigh up. | 0:00:52 | 0:00:54 | |
I mean, could we keep the pound? | 0:00:54 | 0:00:57 | |
That guy off the telly promises us we can. | 0:00:57 | 0:01:00 | |
"It'll all be fine," he says. | 0:01:00 | 0:01:02 | |
Yeah, right, I've heard that one before. | 0:01:02 | 0:01:06 | |
"Oil'll pay for it all." | 0:01:06 | 0:01:08 | |
So, you can rely on oil for everything, can you? | 0:01:08 | 0:01:11 | |
The kids' school? Our local hospital? | 0:01:11 | 0:01:14 | |
Mum and Dad's pension? | 0:01:14 | 0:01:15 | |
Hmm, it all sounds a bit TOO good to be true, if you ask me. | 0:01:15 | 0:01:20 | |
You know, the thing is, I've heard plenty of promises. | 0:01:20 | 0:01:23 | |
But straight answers? | 0:01:23 | 0:01:25 | |
They seem a little bit harder to come by. | 0:01:25 | 0:01:27 | |
Paul says we have to do what's best for the country. | 0:01:27 | 0:01:31 | |
That's why it's SO difficult to decide, isn't it? | 0:01:31 | 0:01:34 | |
I'm just as proud of Scotland as he is. | 0:01:34 | 0:01:37 | |
I mean, it's my country. Of course I want what's best for it! | 0:01:37 | 0:01:40 | |
And most of all, I want what's best for my children. | 0:01:40 | 0:01:44 | |
And their children. | 0:01:44 | 0:01:45 | |
It's not like you can change your mind in four years' time. | 0:01:48 | 0:01:51 | |
They have to live with the decision I make. | 0:01:52 | 0:01:55 | |
Oh, I suppose that's why all this... uncertainty bothers me so much. | 0:01:55 | 0:02:00 | |
The more I think about it, | 0:02:00 | 0:02:02 | |
independence seems like one big gamble. | 0:02:02 | 0:02:05 | |
Like it's not been thought through. | 0:02:05 | 0:02:08 | |
And there's one thing I do know - | 0:02:08 | 0:02:10 | |
I will NOT be gambling with my children's future. | 0:02:10 | 0:02:13 | |
Do you know what? | 0:02:20 | 0:02:22 | |
I've made up my mind. | 0:02:22 | 0:02:23 | |
I'm going to do what's best for Scotland. | 0:02:23 | 0:02:25 | |
So... | 0:02:25 | 0:02:27 | |
that'll be a no from me. | 0:02:27 | 0:02:29 | |
Time to get to work. | 0:02:30 | 0:02:32 |
