So an indeterminate amount of 25% is the reason for closing the industry. Sounds reasonable. Pretty sure about 90% of people testing positive will have been in supermarket. Can we close them as well?

Nothing more certain. A couple of posters on here are examples of that. They simply cannot accept any criticism of NS or SNP. The only response will be 'better than Tories'. That isn't acceptable anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would solve a lot of problems, sure, but better, nope. Again, I like going out for a drink myself and I’d hate it. Might suit a lot of people if there weren’t any p****d-up gangs of people in city-centres at night though. It’s all to do with our (+ England + Ireland + Scandinavia) relationship with booze.

Ron Burgundy Posted October 7, 2020 Share Posted October 7, 2020 I was meant to be going to Dundee for a 50th on the 24th ( Dundee was not my choice). I have a hotel booked for the night and we were all booked in to a pub with tables of 6. I understand the pub is goosed now but if the hotel won't cancel the booking and we still go will it be able to serve booze? Is it classed differently to a bar or restaurant?

As I understand it, if you’re a resident of the hotel then you can be served booze (and of course Dundee is in NHS Tayside) Edit: I don’t know where you stay but residents of the 5 CB health board areas have been asked not to travel outwith their area.

Malinga the Swinga Posted October 7, 2020 Share Posted October 7, 2020 Can a restaurant open and not serve alcohol? Can a restaurant open that has BYOB licence and not allow the alcohol?

A couple of weeks solves nothing. What harm will it cause? Job losses, business closures and bunch of other unintended stuff. The measures don’t make much sense and the hospitality industry has just been shafted royally, We locked down for months, we unlock and it spreads. The SG think 2 weeks ban on pubs will solve anything. Tragic. On bright side gyms still open. Think you mind find that two week period will get extended again and again. Get your point though, soon as we open up again whats to stop it spreading again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
