Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

I am dreading Nicola Sturgeon's announcement.

What frustrates me is that the same people will obey the new guidance and the same people will ignore it.

So, the only people that suffer are the law abiding.

Also, a wee oldies' pub in a quiet village is treated the same as a student bar in a big city

Its looking like the message will be:

- Hospitality closes at 10pm and is table service only while open
- Work From Home
- Meet in groups of 6

So in reality not much is changing other than hopefully getting the message across to the rule breakers to be sensible.

Will be interesting to see what Sturgeon does, but if she goes further with nationwide restrictions when she has not imposed restrictions on Glasgow in recent weeks, I think that would be poor show.

So the police need to come down hard on that restaurant it’s not good enough that they know these things go on but don’t do anything.

Yet say there is 6 people in a house they’ll be straight round - soft targets.

GG the local news interviewed him and he was absolutely adamant it was OK!
The council were called on saturday and stopped the party
Oadby had been in local lockdown and is going back into local lockdown .... it's acts like that which show why!

I guess he’s thinking I have tables of 6 it’s fine but was he maintaining no mixing amongst tables? As that is a key part of SD in venues.

To be honest, none of the handful of pubs and cafes in my wee harbour village will ever be 'brought to book'. They've made the decision to implement each and every rule to protect punters. You don't get past the door without masking and sanitising. If you've not a mask, you're given one
