    My polling station was accessible, not busy and there were free sweets.

    I voted by post. I appeared to be one of the few not affected by the fiasco that was people not receiving their papers. (Plymouth)

    I voted by proxy, my husband went and voted for me as I was working away from home.

    I voted by post which was a good idea as I wasn't feeling great on Thursday & wouldn't have gone to vote in person.
