Tha trioblaidean air a bhith a' leantainn leis an Rest and Be Thankful, air rathad an A83 ann an Earra-Ghàidheal, airson iomadach bliadhna a-nis. 'S e am pìos rathaid as cunnartaiche ann an Alba airson maoimtean-talmhainn. Thachair an tè mu dheireadh san Lùnasdal 2020. Eadar sin agus tachartasan eile, bha an Rest and Be Thankful dùinte airson dà cheud latha uile gu lèir ann an 2020, a' ciallachadh maill do dhràibhearan agus aca ri slighean eile a ghabhail. Tha muinntir an àite sgìth dhan seo agus tha iad ag iarraidh fuasgladh maireannach. Ach a-rèir Riaghaltas na h-Alba, dh'fhaodadh nach tig sin airson suas ri 10 bliadhna eile. Tha ·¡Ã²°ù±è²¹ ann an Earra-Ghàidheal gus faighinn a-mach mu na thathas a' dèanamh mu dheidhinn staid an rathaid bho latha gu latha, mu na tha san amharc air a shon agus mun bhuaidh a tha seo a' toirt air an sgìre agus na daoine a tha a' fuireach innte.

Problems with the Rest and Be Thankful on the A83 in Argyll have been ongoing for many years now. In terms of landslides, it is the most risky road in Scotland. The last one happened in August 2020 and between that and other incidents, the Rest and Be Thankful was closed for 200 days over the course of that year. This meant delays for drivers as they had to take alternative routes. The people of Argyll are tired of this and want a permanent solution to the problem. According to the Scottish Government, they could be waiting up to 10 years for this. ·¡Ã²°ù±è²¹ is in Argyll to find out what’s been done to deal with this on a day-to-day basis, what the plans for improvement are and how it all impacts the area and the people who live there.

Tha na meadhanan-sòisealta a-nis nam pàirt cho mòr nar beatha làitheil. Bidh sinn a' cur seachad grunn uairean a thìde san latha gar bogadh fhèin ann an saoghal dhaoine eile. Ach tha gu leòr de na tha sinn a' faicinn air-loidhne nach eil fìor, agus e nas fhasa na bha e a-riamh dealbh atharrachadh, air neo filter a chur air. A-nis, tha cuid de eòlaichean slàinte-inntinn air rabhadh gum faod cuid de na chì sinn air-loidhne a bhith cunnartach, agus droch bhuaidh a thoirt air ìomhaigh na bodhaige. Air ·¡Ã²°ù±è²¹ na seachdain sa, tha Anndra MacFhionghain a' bruidhinn ri cuid de na daoine air-loidhne a bhios a' cur suas dhealbhan agus aig a bheil mòran luchd-leantainn, agus bho eòlaichean. Cluinnidh sinn cuideachd bhon Nirribhidh, far an tèid lagh ùr a chur an sàs, a' ciallachadh gum feum a h-uile dealbh le sanas air na meadhanan-sòisealta dèanamh cinnteach gu bheil e foilleasach ma chaidh an dealbh sin atharrachadh.

Social media has become a huge part of our everyday lives. We spend hours scrolling through other people's pictures, and post our own for the world to see. But much of what we see on many social media platforms has gone through an editing process, with it being easier than ever before to retouch a photo or add a filter. Now, some mental health experts warn that edited online content could be harmful for people's wellbeing, and can affect people's body image. In this week's episode of ·¡Ã²°ù±è²¹, Andrew MacKinnon finds out more from social media influencers and from the experts, and we also hear from Norway, where a law is to be introduced, ensuring all edited promotional pictures on social media must highlight that they have been retouched.
