Coronavirus (COVID-19)


Recommended Posts

Saturday had promised a trip to the big Tesco and maybe a sausage roll for lunch.

Now looking like drive to Otter Ferry for a walk on a beach, restock beer fridge from Fyne Ales, coffee at Inveraray, chippy from Oban, and drive home at sunset. Absolutely magnificent.

Sunday I'm heading to Glasgow to walk the mural trail. I haven't been inside a city for five months. Can't wait to see a taxi or a pigeon. Might even buy a Pret just to keep the city fat cats happy. May divert home via Barry's Southside to visit this much vaunted beer cave in person.

Shaping up to be the best weekend!

Christ the first reply to that. “The Euros scare me. Fan zones in London scare me and I live in Scotland”. 

Hopefully a cracking use of sarcasm.

Did Sturgeon actually say during her briefing that 'Scots travelling to England could bring the virus back into Scotland'?

The audacity if she did, given England has a lower rate of infection than Scotland.

So what will they do when hundreds of thousands Scotland fans go down to London in June?

"We'll be coming, we'll be coming, we'll be coming down the road. When you get the symptoms of the Tartan Army variant, we'll be coming down the road."

It's not as catchy as the original but it's the best I could come up with.

Can't tell if Johnson is just desperately trying to prevent vaccinated people from abandoning his restrictions or not tbh.

The wider impact of his words on vaccine hesitancy, of course, won't have been considered.

So a 4 nation approach to international travel re-opening. Maybe at last seeing that maintaining restrictions up here whilst England is open makes absolutely no sense.
The Jet2 announcement this week clearly signaled that and it's going to be a slow, pitfall laden journey I fear even as a uk wide approach.

I don't think there will be too many green countries come 17th May, but there will be some which is a start.

Basically that they're looking for a 4 nation approach but that “It may well be the case that we do have to endure restrictions in international travel for a bit longer as the price we pay for much greater normality here in Scotland.”

Great news about the travel ban being lifted. It's been a long winter stuck in deepest darkest South Ayrshire! Buzzing for a day out to Portpatrick emoji41.png

Imagine the Crown outside if it's a nice day on 26th, even worse the holiday weekend after

I'm welling up just thinking of it! Happy faces enjoying the sun! Odds on its pissing it down 😬
