I suspect it's more than you might think. Mobile phones have been with us in their modern compact type for well over 25 years now remember. I know lots of over 70's who use them routinely. Once you get beyond that age range, possibly not a lot but that's a generation who are dying off now yet were still relatively young in the 1980's when we first began to witness celluar communications.

Not making excuses for 'central belters' here but given it's the most densely populated part of Scotland, was this not inevitable without a full on lockdown ? How do the stats for other regions compare, per capita ?
to be fair to the central belt a good % of the cases recently are from students who come from all over the world

More bad news for Jet2, TUI and Wizz. I presume Ryanair will carry on flying regardless.

If it wasn’t so serious you could make a Carry on Flying, or not as the case may be.

FR reductions for W20:-

DUB - 7 pw
WMI - suspended for W20
WRO - weekly
KRK - remains 2 pw
AGP - remains 2 pw

Looks like we've lost CRL for good as not available in the drop down box now.

That's more than I'd have guessed to be honest.
