[QUOTE="Annb, post: 2237723, member: 25851"] Roast duck, Mmm! DIL says lots of people have been coming to the Island to escape the virus. Of course, all they'll do is bring it with them. And of course, our medical services aren't up to coping with extra numbers of patients. And if the restaurants and pubs are closed, I don't know where they'll eat, unless B&B owners will help out. Maybe that's why DIL's laundry has been doing well these last few weeks - people staying in B&Bs and so on. Now that restaurants are having to shut down, there will be fewer items of table linen. It's a new business that she's been getting off the ground with her eldest daughter so she's hoping just to sit out the virus and start up again in earnest afterwards. I gather the ferries have accepted that they should only carry Island residents from now on, but they can carry the virus too. I think everyone should just sit tight and follow the recommendations. DIL's eldest son (my son is her third husband and Em's father) is a student in Oban and works in a bar as well, so his college is closed, his job has disappeared and he is losing his accommodation. His Mum told him to come home, but he said he'd rather face the virus there, than come back. Can't force him. He's young and fit (apart from being a smoker) so he should be allright. [/QUOTE]
