"(Scottish) Police have advised people to stay indoors for all but essential travel." - Press Assn.

That's a bit limiting for any of us who prefer non-essential travel. Better start practising your indoor flights of fancy. A pre-prandial spot of time travel, maybe. A conducted tour of that spare boxroom after lunch. I suppose a bit of lone surfing might count. Ah, Keats! 'Much have I travelled in the realms of gold / And many goodly states and kingdoms seen . . . .' - but surely that's in the essential category ? Check with the Leith Polith, pleath.
