For the queue within their property perhaps. But when it spills half a mile down the main road of Aberdeen city centre I'm sure there will be an arguement that the venue cannot be held responsible. Can't recall the supermarkets hiring security staff to police their queues which spilled onto public property. 

To be honest, doesn't really bother me either way. I'm just playing devil's advocate. 

 

Every supermarket I've been to manages their own queue with security staff.

 

Likewise couldnt give a fuck, but the like of Soul should have employed security for the queue regardless of legality.

 

Genuinely don't care though.

The local rags coverage of the Adams lounge making them a scapegoat is a disgrace. The lockdown police all over them in the comments as well. Sounds like they took every precaution they could have done. This was always going to happen once pubs open. Just have to now rely on the track and trace thing and folk doing the right thing if they test positive. 

Not according to folk that have been in there they haven't

Two ways to look at this. 

The first is that the pub followed all the requirements, strictly policed them and still a significant amount of people have contracted the virus through (I assume) one infected person attending.  If that is the case, that is concerning industry wide, as if you get this and various other similar situations arising around Scotland in the near future, confidence in people attending such places will dwindle significantly.

The second is that the pub or people within the pub did not follow guidelines and this lead to the significant amount of cases.

I'd certainly prefer it to be the second one.

Must be different up your way - as other than staff standing at the front of the queue, I've never seen any staff member manage the queue at any of the supermarkets. Cant say anyone has ever walked down the queue to ensure people remained 2m apart that I've seen. Even less likely when it spilled onto the public path at the bottom of the car park.

Jason Leitch said as much - said right when it was announced that they sent people to check it out and they ticked every box with regards compliance.

I head that too. Also the Cock and Bull was an offshore worker who only found out when he got routinely tested for going offshore. Didnt say where he was from though.

Boy from Orkney had a false positive before going offshore. Provoked a bit of panic here before the negative came through.

Youngsters thinking they're ready to make step up, Dazzler? Always good to hear the older crew are still up to it, but there will be a day of reckoning at some point.

Absolutely. Always good to take the kids down a peg or two. I wasn't there but I've heard the reports of what happened.

Cock and Bull case was a false positive? Was in there on Monday

Not seen this confirmed anywhere. The restaurant haven't put this out so unless you know the person involved not sure how youd know. 

As I said I was also in yesterday for lunch. No requirement for any other customer to be informed due to the positioning of the tables. Well apart and no chance of coming within close enough contact for it to spread.

Did you have your own private toilet facilities?

Never went for a piss. But there was sanitising stations at the toilet door. 

Just quoting the guidelines. Only those who will have spent 15 mins within 2m of the infected person are contacted via track and trace. And since all the tables are at least 2m apart, doubtful anybody will get contacted. Unless they are spending time together in the bogs of course...

I’m sure they took note of who used the facilities.

theres always a chance of infection if you are in the same restaurant / pub as an infected individual regardless of time spent together. Touch an infected surface, touch your face, easy done.

and there’s this
