ie tv, twitter, text, call?
We have so many channels these days so how did you find out and what was your initial reaction?
I woke at 6 but as i was up late (for me) i deliberately did not pick up my phone till 7 and then looked at Twitter and audibly said "Feck" :omgno:

I had totally forgotten about it actually and I had a CD on in my car all the way to work, when I got in there was a package from amazon after arriving for me and my brother (who I work with) said, Did you buy that from England? I said Yeah, why? and he said you should have waited it would have been way cheaper to order it now :fan:

Similar to me. I was watching the BBC TV coverage until 2am, and then quite a few results had came in and some were calling it a Remain win.
Deflated I went to bed. Woke at 5am and found we'd won. :eek::cheer2:

I was watching live on BBC, fell asleep just after the first couple of major Scotland results came in thinking I might be lucky to wake up to people not ****ing up the country, but alas I woke up at 8 and saw the news.
