Scotland’s lockout was made even easier today as four adults from two families were allowed to meet outside.
After Nicola Sturgeon announced a “cautious acceleration” for its roadmap this week, gatherings can take place at any outdoor location, including private gardens.
Children between the ages of 12 and 17 will also be able to meet in groups of four, but not all are required to come from just two homes.

Outdoor non-contact sports and group exercise of 15 people can also resume today.
