Jon Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 Go to the Olympia swimming centre and go on some god damn awesome flumes/slides/whateveryelseyoucallthem. Once suitably dried, go visit the RSS Discovery, the very ship that was sailed by Robert Scott on the first successful expedition to Antarctica. Then get the Fuck out.

Charlie Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 I was going to say go to the ship and then get the fuck out of there but JonSt beat me to it. A very 'nothing' place. When I first saw the title I thought you were going to be going on holiday there or something! Big Deal, I went to Dundee just to get breakfast yesterday. Oh wait, you mean Dundee scotland, yea that's a fair bit cooler. It's really not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nolan Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 It's really not. Excepting the fact that your waterpark is way better looking, (and didn't get ravaged by a Tornado). And you've got a kickass boat as well. We don't have a boat, we're landlocked! We use to have a Denny's though. Well I'm looking forward to the event I'm going for just wondered...gonna have shite all to do on friday night. You mean....on Friday, the day after Thursday you not so excited for all of the fun?

chairdriver Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 You can walk up and down the Tay bridge. Or run it, if you're hardcore. At one point was the longest bridge in the world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flameboy Posted March 16, 2011 Author Share Posted March 16, 2011 Fuck all? When did Scotland ban pubs? on my own?! You mean....on Friday, the day after Thursday you not so excited for all of the fun? what fun?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nolan Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 what fun?! Here is a thread about an educational video on the topic of Friday. Apparently they're fun. http://n-europe.com/forum/showthread.php?t=30003 Make sure to choose the correct seat though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McPhee Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 on my own?! Seems like the best option. There's bugger all else to do in Dundee in the evenings, unless you head to the Cinema, but they're all on the outskirts of the city. Beats sitting in the hotel room?

Paj! Posted March 17, 2011 Share Posted March 17, 2011 Dundee is awful. Would literally be a non-place if it didn't have universities there. It is the base of D.C Thomson comcis, who make Beano/Dandy/Others. Not sure you can look around there though (I have due to a friend who's part of the Thomson family...).

Gizmo Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 Yeah Dundee is a bit shit. Even Olympia is closed now. I'm allowed to say this, because both my girlfriend and my sister currently live there. Avoid it where possible :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 Yeah Dundee is a bit shit. Even Olympia is closed now. I'm allowed to say this, because both my girlfriend and my sister currently live there. Avoid it where possible :p Is it closed permanently? I had many a great day there on the Cannonball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ganepark32 Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 Yeah Dundee is a bit shit. Even Olympia is closed now. I'm allowed to say this, because both my girlfriend and my sister currently live there. Avoid it where possible :p What if you go to university in Dundee? But yeah, Dundee is pretty awful as a city. Very little there to do in the centre (I hated the Discovery thing when I went and didn't care for the Olympia which I believe is being knocked down and replace), although the Dundee Contemporary Arts centre isn't too bad. Why the cinemas/ice rink are on the outskirts are beyond me. Ice rink isn't bad though, from what I remember from my days playing there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlie Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 Well I'm there and you guys were right shite all to do! Dundee Utd are playing tomorrow afternoon at Tannadice if you're still kicking around Dundee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
