Am I imagining this, or do we (NE. Scotland) have a severe shortage
of insects this year?

Stone me! No midges?

I have encountered a single cloud of Midges, down the riverbank about
two weeks ago, but that's all. Normally everywhere is thick with them.

You are blessed.

Well I'm also a camping enthusiast, and from that perspective I
suppose it is a "blessing", but the unselfish side of me says that the
total annihilation of Midges would probably *not* be a good thing,
overall.
