Pretty decent parking. I was a member of a gym in town that was part of a hotel. Nice enough but the weekends were murder. Too many wacky weekenders using the spa as part of a package.

Very similar case numbers to Midlothian without taking the population into account. I was meant to be in Amsterdam for Christmas. Despite the lockdown there, there are still flights going and the flights I was meant to be on are still going. Saying that they are probably still expecting people connecting onto Long Haul Flights there. My brother goes to Amerstam on 20th, tested, stays in a hotel for 4 days, flies to Dubai, same again then off to a work bubble for 4 weeks.

It's the percentage of the tests coming back positive that counts. IF you test 1000 and get 50 positive results, or test 10.000 and get 500 positive, it still works out as 5% positivity.

Not seen any evidence to suggest they've piled all the tests into Edinburgh alone. Have you? Mass testing at Uni’s would surely skew Edinburgh figures ? Regardless without the two figures the 40% on it’s on means very little. It’s very telling she is now concentrating on the positive tests for Edinburgh and no mention of the other indicators. 🙄 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think they moved anyone to tier 2 with the same numbers/circumstances as Edinburgh were. No. The Midlothian failure to move was for the same reasons. And since then the numbers where all over the place. Also this week is when we will see if Tier 4 actually sustainably got the numbers down in the West. Tomorrow is Day 5 out of it.

Temp check as you enter, they then tell you rules for the day and ask you santisize before you go through turnstiles. Mask enforcement is SS style strict. They have sanitising equipment everywhere and people watching ensuring compliance of rules and cleaners constantly going round cleaning, on top of users requirements to clean before and after. They have introduced a bunch of non sensual rules such as nothing can be unattended in gym. Windows open and sanitiser. In fairness I’ve been loving it as it’s been quiet as, when I train, so just me and some gym bunny, generally. We have enough flanter between us so that our ego’s are massaged enough. Training hard and enjoying it so much. It’s about the only place I’m allowed to go, don’t take it away from me. Yes i think most gyms are being responsible from what i have read. Im not advocating closures. Its good for the physical as well as mental. Mine have plummeted due to not going to the gym i feel. Btw what is " flanter" ?

Ray Gin Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 Just now, frankblack said: But hospitality has been shut for 3 months and numbers are still increasing, so what is causing the rise? Do we close all these businesses now and make the staff redundant if she has no intention of lowering the tier? Numbers were dropping until recently. Christmas shopping is probably causing the rise. The tier will lower when it is actually safe to do so - after Christmas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Outbreaks in halls, then mass testing at Universities over the last 2 weeks has caused the rise Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regards drug policy it wasn’t Westminster who have cut around 40 million in last few years from the drug budget and that was Scottish government so nothing to do with Westminster. The rules scotland cant change apply to the rest of the uk and their numbers are much much lower than ours. Scotland has developed powers that should be able to deal with this but they haven’t done a very good job at all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
