Wasn't challenged no. She was standing being interviewed on Seagate and I remembered the wind funneling down there so strongly it's been difficult to walk - but it's never windy in Dundee by the Tay Estuary.Quote:

There would never have been a problem with fumes from vehicles in the Seagate if the Dundee City Councillors had left the Seagate as one way. However that involves common sense which is sadly lacking amongst the Dundee City Councillors.Quote:

My wife who used to get the Xplore Dundee bus to the Seagate cannot drive.
I now have to give her lift to the new Marks and Spencer store in the Gallagher Retail Park, drive home and wait for her phone call to collect her after she has finished her shopping.
The SNP ministers keep banging on about people stopping using their cars and using public transport but this policy does not appear to have reached the controlling group of SNP councillors in the City Chambers in the City Square.
Another green nutcase promoted to their level of incompetence.Quote:

Dundee City Councillor Heather Anderson is the net zero councillor on Dundee City council.
This is nothing new as far as Labour MPs are concerned.Quote:

George Robertson was born on Islay and he was a ‘local boy made good’.
It would be interesting to know if George Robertson declared this free dinner for his 40th birthday paid by Bowmore Distillery to the House of Commons.
I received this information over 15 years ago from a Bowmore distillery worker who I used to play golf with at Machrie golf course on Islay.
You don't 'HAVE TO' give your poor, long suffering wife a lift to Gallagher Retail Park, that's what's called a choice i.e. you choose to give the poor woman a lift because the truth is that there are bus stops nearby.Quote:

If I was her I'd choose to get away from you by taking a bus to the Wishart Centre stop, or alternatively if her bus doesn't go that way a bus into town and a 5 or 5A back down Seagate to the bus station, then walking the short distance to M&S. The short respite from you would be bliss since I can only imagine the drive from your house to, well anywhere, with you would verge on being a total nightmare.
You'd then be able to say you're doing your bit for the environment and to reduce the supposedly high levels of pollution in Dundee City Centre by halving the number of trips you make to and from M&S. The SNP will love you.
Why would M&S apply for planning permission for a building that's already there ,change of use maybe, but was originally a sports shop , so they could hardly say it was unsuitable to be come a shop once moreQuote:
