LOCKDOWN?
As with everyone else, we are taking things a week at a time as we have no idea if we will end up locked down in Scotland or not. The current tier status for Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire doesn’t really affect us as our customers are primarily local and the area is Tier 2, however we have made some tentative “plans” for lockdown as being prepared is always the best option!
