Well Mrs O did not do at all badly-4th in the poll and running close to the Labour guy but well behind the Libs and Tories. The Merse is not fertile SNP soil and she must have picked up her 3,800 plus votes in Galashiels and Selkirk.
Not a good day transport wise-3 trains to get in to Queensway and not a seat on any of them. Nor was Huttonian offered one. Once when suffering from an injured leg and on crutches I offered my seat to a very pregnant woman. She gave me a hard look and said 'Sit down you sexist pig!"' I tried to, but a young man had nipped into the seat which I had vacated for the pregnant dragon and I was forced to stand in the glare of the irate matron for 8 stops. Manners Makyth Man but not on the Northern Line.
