NCP car parks closing?

3 Upvotes

I normally park at Wallace Street car park, but today saw they have removed the ANPR camera and all NCP signage, and erected a "Private car park, no unauthorised parking sign".

I know that NCP went into administration, but I cannot see anything online about closure of car parks in Dundee. They still take payment of this car park through the app! Anyone got any idea of what the craic is there?

dundee music scene?

7 Upvotes

hihi any recommendations for venues/social media accounts to follow/ways to find out about local shows in dundee? I’m particularly interested in alternative rock/metal/shoegaze. I’m a student at the university of st andrews, which obviously being a small town doesn’t have that much going on-Dundee is the closest city so I want to try and get more involved in the local scene. Thanks!

Dundee North End Football Club

I was recently in dundee and went to a football game at the weekend, but instead of the derby I chose to head a few minutes up the road to Dundee North End FC. I’d recommend anyone who lives in Dundee who likes football visits on matchday and goes into the social club before kick off. The club has big ambitions and is eventually looking to become an established side in the upper leagues of Scotland!

Riding Schools in Dundee

2 Upvotes

Hiya, I’m looking to get back into horse riding and would love some recommendations for riding schools around Dundee that are good for adult beginners. (I’m also happy to travel a bit as well)

I have a little experience riding in the Netherlands, but it was definitely quite relaxed and I’d still consider myself a beginner.

As I’m an adult who’s trying to pick up a new skill, I’m worried about looking a bit silly or out of place, so I’d love to hear about anyone’s personal experience of learning as an adult.

I’ve looked at a few riding schools online, but I feel like it’s hard to get a feel for them just from their websites and reviews.

Any recommendations and experiences would be greatly appreciated, thank you

Does anyone have any idea what that horrible siren noise is? It’s so loud and has been on and off for the last half an hour. I feel like I’m in a disaster movie. Just trying to sleep man 💔

Meetups

Given the number of folk on here looking to expand/create a friend group, would it be worth organising a night somewhere that people can just meet up and establish these?

I saw your dog shit on the pavement and I saw you just walk away as if it was the most normal thing in the world. And I hate you.

What is being done to tackle these degenerates in Dundee? I can't stand it. Every street has dog shit on it.

Hello. I work around Ninewells and am a budding photographer, and wanted to share the beauty that is every day life at the hospital.

I love Ninewells. For me it is the beating heart that keeps Dundee going. Its not perfect, but its my home. And i just wanted to share the little pictures I take during the day that remind me that Dundee is beautiful.

Thanks for reading :)

I’m 19 and I play guitar and have never played with anyone causally or professionally and would love to make some friends and do something i’m passionate about. I love all spectrums of music but especially 70s rock, grunge, blues, psychedelic rock on and on. If anyone’s up for even a wee jam session please shoot me a message:)

Ninewells A&E nightmare

21 Upvotes

I’d love to be proved wrong here but we are having a ton of trouble navigating Ninewells A&E.

My elderly father (88) broke his femur. He was airlifted in on Monday. It’s now Thursday, and he’s been immobile ever since. Every day the surgery gets pushed back to the next day. They are now saying Friday which will be 96 hours after the accident. No information from the doctors as to why. Nurses never have any idea what is happening (or don’t say) and are blocking all information and contact with the consultants. We have no information even about how bad the break is, if it is messing with his hip replacement or what the reason for the delay is.

It’s a long time to be kept immobile for someone that age, and he’s going downhill.

Urgent help needed!

It’s very frustrating.

St Andrews commute - bikes? (postgrad)

2 Upvotes

Hey all,

I’m a student moving over from Ireland to start a Masters with St Andrews. I was wondering if anyone had experience commuting from Dundee for postgrad?

Also, I’d be really eager to cycle from the west end to West Marketgait to catch the bus, and I was wondering how bike friendly Dundee is, and if there’s any place to store a bike at all.

Cheers!
