How could you spend 4 years on Dundee and not meet many Dundonians?

[–] Mojojojo1993@lemmy.world 2 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Exactly.

Where were they?

The pubs the clubs the shops. Everyone. They all were from outside Dundee.

We lived in the city centre for 2 years and all the days were filled with students. Was wild.

You were clearly going to the wrong pubs if you wanted to meet the locals.

Drouthy Neebors was the spot.

Where in Dundee? I know one in Edinburgh. Just down the road from where I used to stay

Where was that. I Googled it and largs came up.

The locals we knew lived in the alley behind us. We did not interact with them.

I’ve corrected the spelling, sorry. On Perth Road across from art college. Mostly artist, musician, skater crowd.
