Confused re lifting of restrictions

[alittleconfusedinScotland]

Hi I moved to Scotland just before lockdown to be closer to my DS. Ive not seem him since Xmas day so Im very excited that I will be able to see him soon. But I'm confused as to what we will soon be allowed to do. In particular in relation to travelling around.
As far as I understand I will be able to drive to see him and meet him inside in cafe go for a walk etc. But if he came to me (he's never seen our new house and can't drive) he will come by train and then get a bus or taxi to my house and then we can eat outside go for a walk etc. Or is he allowed in my car so I can meet him at the station thus saving time? If he's allowed in my car surely he might as well come in the house which I know he's not allowed to do (weird that its fine to meet inside in a potentially crowded cafe), as even though my car is quite big he cannot be 2 m away although he could wear a mask. It seems slightly contradictory but I dont want to break the rules.

I don't really understand how you can meet up with a friend (after the 26th) in a coffee shop but I can't invite that friend into my house, where they could actually be sitting further away from me in my living room than at the coffee shop

Now now, @RaraRachael, you're not trying to make common sense out of the Scot Gov's random rules are you?

This is why I started this thread because I wondered if I’d simply misinterpreted the rules. It appears I haven’t I think most people would say it doesn’t make sense. We’ve generally stuck to the rules, as have most people we know but once they stop making sense I suspect many start going their own way.

Do what you feel comfortable with it's about what risks you are happy taking.

You will get some covid police saying its not safe your causing issues etc etc but covid isn't going to magically go away on the dates they relax things which is a major point!

The data at the moment is low enjoy your sons visit and yes logic with the rules doesn't really equate anymore. Unfortunately we all have to learn to live with this now.

My sister is obsessed with the "risks" . No major health issues but has barely been over the doorstep since last March - all food delivered and quarantined or wiped down everything that comes into the house.
Then she ctiticises me for saying I try to live normally and I'm sick of these nonsensical restrictions
