Finished sorting the stuff under the stairs. I have put some of Jim's music DVD'S ready to take to the Dog's Trust when they are open again. I hated to get rid of them but I am never going to listen to them and I don't think they will appeal to anyone else in the family either. We just don't have the same varied taste in classical music. I still have a lot of DVD'S left.

Washed the white covers on the dining room chairs. The can't go in the tumble dryer so I have hung them outside and the day remained warm and occasionally sunny.

Called Sam the boiler man to come and service the boiler. Rang Pam and had a chat. She is okay but hasn't left her house since lockdown. I don't think I could do that for three months but she is more cautious than I am.

Caught up with the repeat of Broadchurch but I still can't remember the ending.

The idea of quarantining visitors entering Scotland from other parts of the UK is "astonishing and shameful", Prime Minister Boris Johnson has said.

First Minister Nicola Sturgeon has said "all options" must remain open should coronavirus infection rates "diverge" between different parts of the country.

However both leaders said there had been no talks about the potential for new travel restrictions to be imposed.

Ms Sturgeon said it would be "frankly disgraceful" to politicise the issue.

She said if advisors told her that a quarantine rule would be "a necessary measure to protect people" then she would be "failing in my duty not to consider it".

There are currently no plans to impose a quarantine or other restrictions on travellers entering Scotland from other parts of the UK, but Ms Sturgeon has refused to rule the idea out as she pushes to effectively eliminate coronavirus north of the border.

She said that if there was an "ongoing divergence" between levels of the virus in different parts of the UK, then "from a public health perspective we have to be able to consider all options to try to stop a resurgence of infection in Scotland".
