October 21 1956 saw the last tram car run in Dundee.
Unlike Edinburgh and Glasgow, who made a big event of the last runs, Dundee Corporation’s Transport Department decided not to mark the event of its ‘Last Tram’ but to quietly introduce the busses replacing them, it didn't stop the Dundonians see the last tram enter the Lochee Depot, as seen in the second photo.

I've worked in Edinburgh for about a year (I live near Dundee). And of all the times I've commuted (at least once or twice a week) all buses and trains have been running and on time in both directions maybe twice? It cannot be that hard to have functioning public transport, surely? Folks in other countries (or even cities), please confirm or deny?

Whisky, gin and beer
It was always going to be about beer, too - not only whisky and gin. And it was probably designed to be a simultaneous project, that might have been postponed for various reasons: funny how all those intelligent people across the street forget everything about COVID, when it does not fit their agendas. And by COVID, I do not mean only the prolonged lockdowns, but first and foremost the worldwide logistics crisis, with compromised supply chains and overall a huge blow on the transports' sector.
In fact, looking at those trademark websites, it becomes evident that first (now abandoned) trademark application for beer was filed in at the same time as the one for whisky, on December 28, 2018:
Separate categories, as per US regulations, need separate filings, of course. And beer is a brilliant, simple idea, with high quality local ingredients (it's really barley, water, hops and yeast) relatively easy to source. Well, spare perhaps for the hops, but that is not really a problem, anymore:
(Source: the James Hutton Institute's booklet Hops in Scotland, 2018 - well, then. The institute is based in Dundee, by the way, so I think they know exactly what they are talking about, especially after a four year long feasibility study with encouraging results: https://www.hutton.ac.uk/news/scottish-hops-viable-commercial-crop-hutton-research-finds)
As I always make a point of reminding anyone, this page does not deal in fantasy and empty, meaningless scouring of social media accounts. And cackle to your heart's content, Mordor, but S seems to have a genuine, informed interest in the industry, as shown above.
This is a different business plan and a different marketing model, based on affordable production costs and yield/volume (as compared to successive, 'limited batches' of tequila or whisky, where the accent is placed on the excellence of the product and know-how, as reflected in the final price tag). You can bottle that beer or you can sell it on tap, partnering with local bars and pubs first, then progressively extending that network. And I bet the farm it is going to be a premium, artisanal beer first, with options open for a more democratic product, once brand awareness is properly built: beer is versatile, like that.
Whisky and gin were expensive, carefully curated pet projects. Beer is a fun, easy and lucrative one, with a wider clientele and fast growing potential. And this is how that unknown, struggling Scottish actor who once was the face of Tennent's has a fair opportunity to strike it big. To be followed, which I might do. And this is also how his products could cover the entire price range, from luxury to affordable.
It is also always disheartening to see how all those bitter women congregating on certain Tumblr pages feel the need to dismiss anything he does. As I always said and I always will, many of them have no idea about the very basics of business and trade, no exposure to that world and, to be honest, no particular intellectual acuity. Plus I bet the farm many of them lie about their own circumstances: it's easy to pretend, on the Internet and always sexier (and lame, of course) to introduce yourself as a corporate whatever than a secretary. But I wonder how would they feel, in the unlikely situation they would be running their own lemonade stand, if passers by started cackling and bitching about their trade, out of the blue.
So, all in all, we seem to be dealing with some careful preparation, portfolio diversification and yes, taking much needed strides away from McGrandma. To be continued, of course...
PS: FMN Gin, still crickets? Ahhh...

Hannah Dundee: Dinosaurs and Danger Unleashed by Jade Gretz
The air shimmered, distorting the world around Hannah like a mirage in a desert. A searing wind whipped at her tattered clothes, carrying with it the guttural bellows of unseen creatures. She squinted against the harsh sunlight, the cloudless sky an endless expanse of turquoise mocking her predicament.
Hannah, a renowned paleontologist, found herself inexplicably transported from the sterile confines of her laboratory to this hostile terrain. One moment she was meticulously examining a fossil, the next, she was sprawled on a bed of coarse sand, surrounded by towering red rock formations that seemed to defy gravity.
Panic gnawed at the edges of her consciousness, but Hannah, a survivor by nature, forced it down. Survival meant clear thinking, and right now, the most pressing issue was figuring out where the hell she was.
Her gaze swept across the desolate landscape. Sparse vegetation clung to the rocky slopes, offering little in the way of food or shelter. The air, thick with a prehistoric tang, vibrated with the distant calls of unseen creatures. This wasn't a scene from a textbook; this was a nightmare given life.
As Hannah pushed herself up, a sharp pain lanced through her ankle. Glancing down, she saw a nasty gash bleeding from a twisted angle. Cursing under her breath, she assessed the damage. Broken? Probably not. Sprained, for sure.
Ignoring the throbbing pain, she rummaged in her backpack, a comforting piece of familiarity amidst the surreal landscape. Thankfully, a first-aid kit was nestled amongst the notebooks and fossil samples. With practiced ease, she cleaned and bandaged her wound, wincing at the sting of the antiseptic.
Now, came the question of location. Hannah, a master navigator, scanned the horizon for any recognizable landmarks. But everything looked alien, unfamiliar. The towering red rocks, sculpted by millennia of wind and erosion, offered no clues.
Suddenly, a booming cry ripped through the air, sending shivers down her spine. From the valley below, a colossal shadow emerged from behind a towering rock format …(see the rest of the story at deviantart.com/jadegretzAI).

Hello! Any go-to spots for a quick trip to St Andrews? I'll be up there for a couple days this summer for work and want to make the most of it!
Hello :) That'll be a lovely trip! Good news is St Andrews is not a city or even a big town. I think it's formally classed as a small town. So unless you really want to visit the big supermarket on the edge of town, St Andrews is basically three streets lol. You'll easily do it in a couple of days. It's a beautiful place to just walk around and see the sights, spend some time around the pier and the golf course. There are ruins of a castle and an old cathedral which are all fairly central. There's a few museums - Wardlaw, St Andrew Museum, I think there's a golf museum on the course. A botanic gardens which I never actually went to but I heard it was nice. In terms of food I probably can't recommend much because I haven't lived there in a decade so the places will probably have changed but one place I know still exists and I dream about it regularly is The Tailend. It's a fish and chip restaurant and it's the best fish and chips I've ever had. You could also nip to some places near by. Transport links aren't the best but Dundee has a branch of the Victoria and Albert Museum which is supposed to be good. Hope you have a nice time :)

From the medieval streets of Dunkeld to the coastal village of Broughty Ferry, each village has its own story to tell. A minibus rental allows you to visit multiple villages in a single day, immersing yourself in local history and culture.
Tips for Renting a Minibus in Tayside
- Plan Ahead: Book your minibus rental in advance, especially during peak tourist seasons or if you require a specific type of vehicle.
- Check Insurance Coverage: Ensure that the rental includes comprehensive insurance coverage for peace of mind during your travels.
- Driver Requirements: Different rental companies may have varying requirements for renting a minibus. To drive the minibus, it is important to possess a valid driver's license and meet the minimum age criteria set by the rental company.

Ruta terrestre más corta
La búsqueda de la ruta terrestre más corta es una tarea común para quienes viajan por carretera. Ya sea por motivos de conveniencia, ahorro de tiempo o economía de combustible, encontrar la ruta más eficiente puede marcar la diferencia en un viaje. Pero, ¿cómo se determina cuál es la ruta terrestre más corta?
En primer lugar, es importante considerar la distancia entre el punto de partida y el destino final. Esto se puede hacer utilizando aplicaciones de mapas en línea o dispositivos de navegación GPS, que ofrecen estimaciones precisas de la distancia entre dos ubicaciones.
Sin embargo, la distancia más corta no siempre significa el viaje más rápido. Otros factores, como el tráfico, las condiciones del camino y las restricciones de velocidad, pueden afectar la duración del viaje. Por lo tanto, es crucial tener en cuenta estos aspectos al planificar una ruta.
Además, es importante considerar las opciones alternativas de ruta. A veces, una ruta ligeramente más larga puede ser más rápida debido a mejores condiciones de tráfico o carreteras de mejor calidad. Explorar diferentes opciones puede ayudar a encontrar la ruta más eficiente en términos de tiempo y distancia.
En resumen, encontrar la ruta terrestre más corta implica considerar varios factores, como la distancia, el tráfico y las condiciones del camino. Utilizando herramientas de navegación y teniendo en cuenta las condiciones actuales, es posible planificar un viaje de manera eficiente y llegar a destino de manera rápida y segura.
Cálculo distancia en coche
El cálculo de la distancia en coche es una herramienta útil para planificar viajes por carretera y estimar la duración de los trayectos. Existen diversas formas de calcular la distancia en coche, ya sea utilizando aplicaciones de mapas en línea, GPS o mediante fórmulas matemáticas.
Una de las formas más comunes de calcular la distancia en coche es a través de aplicaciones como Google Maps o Waze, las cuales permiten introducir la ubicación de origen y destino para obtener la distancia total del recorrido, así como la duración estimada del viaje teniendo en cuenta factores como el tráfico y la velocidad promedio.
Otra forma de calcular la distancia en coche es mediante la fórmula matemática de la velocidad media, la cual consiste en dividir la distancia entre dos puntos por el tiempo que se tarda en recorrerla. Esta fórmula es útil para estimar la duración de un viaje en función de la distancia a recorrer y la velocidad a la que se desplaza el vehículo.
En resumen, calcular la distancia en coche es fundamental para planificar rutas de viaje, estimar tiempos de llegada y optimizar los desplazamientos por carretera. Ya sea mediante aplicaciones de mapas en línea o fórmulas matemáticas, disponer de esta información facilita la planificación de trayectos y contribuye a una conducción más segura y eficiente.
Distancia en línea recta
La distancia en línea recta, también conocida como distancia ortodrómica, es la distancia más corta entre dos puntos en un plano, representada por una línea recta que los une. En contraposición, la distancia medida siguiendo una ruta curva se conoce como distancia loxodrómica.
Esta distancia en línea recta es un concepto fundamental en diversas áreas, como la cartografía, la navegación y la geolocalización. En la cartografía, por ejemplo, se utiliza para determinar la distancia real entre dos ubicaciones en un mapa, sin importar los obstáculos que puedan existir en el terreno.
En la navegación, la distancia en línea recta es crucial para planificar rutas marítimas o aéreas de la manera más eficiente posible. Al calcular esta distancia, se pueden establecer trayectorias óptimas que minimicen el consumo de combustible y el tiempo de viaje.
En el ámbito de la geolocalización, la distancia en línea recta se emplea en sistemas de posicionamiento global para determinar la ubicación exacta de un dispositivo o una persona en un mapa. Esta medida resulta de gran utilidad en servicios de transporte, logística y emergencias, entre otros.
En resumen, la distancia en línea recta es una herramienta imprescindible en diferentes campos, que permite calcular distancias de manera precisa y facilita la toma de decisiones estratégicas en términos de navegación y geolocalización.

October 21st 1956 saw the last tram car ran in Dundee.
The old trams are fondly remembered but by the 1950s, they were starting to get old and their network of lines had been outgrown by the developing city. Thousands of people turned out to bid the rattling, swaying old trams farewell.
In the evolution of Dundee’s urban transport, horse-drawn carriages gave way to steam propelled cars in 1877, which were superseded by electric trams in 1900, which in turn met a fierce rival in buses.
There is always a romantic sentiment around the old trams around the country and Dundee is now different, here is a description from a 1930’s leaflet on them, they were “lovely electrically-driven and electrically lit cars de luxe which we can now enjoy with so ample accommodation both inside and on the saloon on top, where one can smoke in comfort – having first, of course, asked permission from any ladies who have ventured to climb the ‘smoking room’.”
At their peak in the 30s, 79 tramways were in operation around the city,but mid-20th Century Dundonians considered trams old fashioned, costly to run, too slow and an impediment to the growing volume of other traffic.
And so it was in October 1956, the last trams were taken out of service and more than 5,000 people, many souvenir hunting, witnessed Car No. 23’s final journey to go to the Lochee depot, accompanied by the moving strains of We’re No Awa’ Tae Bide Awa’ and Will Ye No Come Back Again.
All remaining cars were reduced to scrap by burning – a sad end to a transport system that had kept Dundee on track for nearly 80 years.

John Duncan, Artist, Party invitation
July 28th 1890
This invitation to Mr. Lamb was from John Duncan, Artist, who was exhibiting, at a party, a full-length portrait of Mrs. Hunter in court dress. The party was to be held in Messrs. Murray and Son's salon in the Nethergate. John Duncan was born in Dundee in 1866, and began his career at the Art School at the age of 11.
He went to London and Germany and spent four years as Professor of Fine Art in America. It has been said of some of Mr. Duncan's work that it is a "transportation from the land of fairy fancy". He died in Edinburgh in 1945.

Шторм Иша: двое погибших и тысячи остались без электричества, ветер со скоростью до 99 миль в час сносит всё на своем пути. Сильнее всего пострадали районы Шотландии, Северная Ирландии, в северо-западной Англии и Уэльсе, некоторые районы остались без электричества до вторника. Премьер-министр Риши Сунак заявил, что правительство усердно работает с властями, чтобы восстановить электроснабжение домов, добавив, что электричество вернулось почти в 300 000 домов. Завтра, во вторник, шторм Джослин принесет сильный ветер и дождь в Северную Ирландию и некоторые районы Великобритании. Ожидается, что следующий шторм принесет порывы ветра от 55 до 65 миль в час (89 и 105 км/ч) на северо-западе Шотландии. Сегодня метеорологическое бюро зафиксировало скорость ветра Иша 99 миль в час (159 км/ч), зарегистрированное Метеорологическим бюро в Бризли-Вуд в Нортумберленде. Министерство транспорта Шотландии сообщило, что порыв ветра в 107 миль в час (172 км/ч) был зафиксирован на мосту Тэй в Данди. Некоторые из ветров Иши были самыми сильными в Великобритании за последние 20 лет. Storm Isha: Two dead and thousands left without power Storm Isha left thousands of people without power in the UK after bringing heavy rain and winds up to 99mph. Scotland, Northern Ireland, north-west England and Wales were badly hit, and some in remote areas were warned they might have no power until Tuesday. From Tuesday, Storm Jocelyn will bring strong winds and rain to Northern Ireland and parts of Britain. The next named storm - the tenth since September - is expected to bring wind gusts of between 55 and 65mph (89 and 105km/h) across north-western Scotland. Gust speeds are not forecast to top levels seen during the height of Isha, which saw 99mph (159km/h) recorded by the Met Office at Brizlee Wood in Northumberland. Transport Scotland said a gust of 107mph (172km/h) was recorded on the Tay Bridge in Dundee. Some of Isha's winds were the UK's strongest in 10 to 20 years.
