Scotland reopens as lockdown eases
Shops, gyms, swimming pools, pubs, restaurants and cafes in Scotland have reopened after a four month-long winter lockdown.
Early morning queues formed at fashion retailers in Glasgow and Edinburgh as shoppers waited for doors opening.
Travel restrictions have also been eased, allowing trips to other parts of the UK for non-essential reasons.
Ministers say restrictions can be eased as the most vulnerable people have been offered their first vaccine dose.
Scotland has been in level four lockdown since 26 December, with all non-essential shops, leisure facilities, and hospitality venues closed.
