Billy Jean King Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 That was my experience. Maybe there was an exodus of good protestant stock away from the Irish Catholics coming over the sea.Miners originally from Ayrshire working in Fife mines perhaps ? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Better be quick about it, they've cancelled nearly all flights from Inverness. Hope Loganair survive this. Flew to Birmingham with them last month and there were about 9 of us each way. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aufc Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 I live in angus. Seems strange that angus is on par with glasgow and lanarkshire. I like sturgeon but seems this is a political decision 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aufc Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 I have no issue with angus going to tier 3. The numbers are rising. However, the cases in glasgow and lanarkshire are still much larger (even if they are stabilising). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aufc Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 So you're annoyed about them not being put up to tier 4 even though they're stabilising? I'm confused. But their numbers are still much larger than angus. Looking at the below, how can they possibly have angus in the same tiers as glasgow and lanarkshire?. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking at the below, how can they possibly have angus in the same tiers as glasgow and lanarkshire? . I don't know tbh. Maybe because, as you say, your numbers are rising and theirs are stabilising? I think the calculation is based on more than just the numbers on that chart, but I agree it looks odd. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
