If you watch lock picking lawyer, you may as well just leave it open. Most smart locks seem to prioritise convenience over security. -possibly check that your insurance is happy with a smart lock.

There's a lot of Scotland, and don't underestimate driving times. Argyll is good, but can be rather wet any time of the year. Going around now you should be safe from the midgies. Recommend getting onto some of the islands too, and boat rides are always nice. Kerrera is a lovely little island just by Oban. It has a very atmospheric castle, though the teashop isn't as good as it was so pack a lunch. If you like a dram, make a tour of some distilleries, each has it's own character. Argyll has lots of archeology & standing stones if that's your thing. There are loads of lumpy bits of you like walking too. Pretty much anywhere is good, tourist hotspot are ok, but try to get off the beaten track once in a while.
If you're driving, and going onto country roads, please please please learn to reverse.
If you're lucky you may get to spot some wild haggis, but they're quite rare now. The farmed ones are cute but have a nasty bite so be careful.
Also don't neglect the borders, loads of history.
It may not sound your thing, but consider geocaching... It takes you to some interesting out of the way places.
3 day working week will more likely mean companies cutting staff by 50%. Can't imagine most people being able to live when only working 3 days.
Why wasn't there security on the device? My works devices are password protected and it's a disciplinary offence if I share passwords or give unauthorized access.
If he gave them the login creds, then he should be penalised .
If he logged in and gave the device to non parliamentary staff, he should also be penalised.
He got caught because it cost money, which is the lesser offence. Cyber security should be more robust for ministers than it is for most companies, but seemingly not.
Not sure if this vid will help you, but it's real life experience of carrying for someone who has the disease.
Apparently other people have said it's accurate and helps. I've no connection other than following the creator for his excellent technical content.
I'd go with a good quality traditional key lock fitted properly in a good door and frame. Security isn't a single point task, it depends on many things so think like a bad person and do what you can to make your property a harder target than your neighbours.
A good lock on a bad door doesn't work, neither does a bad lock on a good door. Everything needs to work together. If you're likely to lose your keys or many people need access a smart lock may be an idea, but good probably isn't cheap. If it's just you and you can keep your keys safe, then I think tried, tested and simple kit is good.
Ultimately though, as ever, it's your risk assessment based on your needs.
