Fascinating

Micheal is one of our finest treasures. If you're visiting Dundee always check out what tour or talk he is giving around the city.

D R I had a tennis court in the wooded area , spent many summer holidays playing there in the early nineties.

Gregor Fisher lol , very interesting , regards from Dundee .

Nice Curio! Several of these photos are flipped left/right which you might want to fix. The bottom left and bottom right, and either the top middle or the other two on either side are flipped (hard to know which is correct, here, but the order on the couch shows there is a flip going on).

Sailed on the Fifies quite a few times before the bridge was built. I saw the paddle steamer BL Nairn in operation but unfortunately never sailed on her.

Fantastic photos!

Great story. Five pretty big guys crammed into a Morris Minor. 😳😁. Sounds like fun!

eh ??

Needed the closed captioning for this one.

How fabulously atmospheric - Nice post

Some of the artificial limbs were made in an annex of the engineering works of Robert Kellie and son at 40 East dock street

It's videos like these why I love RUclips so much!

Fascinating. Thank you.

I read one study that found sloth (I guess two-toed) skulls in museum collections were misidentified/mislabelled and confused with each other 50% of the time.

This is a super video. The campus gardens are beautiful as is the varied architecture of the buildings. The related facts were fascinating and mostly new to me, despite twice being a Dundee University student, and a life long resident of the city!

Very informative and well-presented. All my four children were born in Ninewells and as a parent, you couldn’t ask for more.

Nice video

The sliders are indeed to keep track of the decimal point during calculations, and to separate 1000s, like in 1000000=1.000.000. It is the "Model II" in their series of "Nova Brunsviga" machines. "Nova"=new. Their older Brunsviga machines were licensed copies of ODHNER pinwheel calculators, were the rotation counter was to the left of the results register. The new design made for a more compact machine with a smaller footprint on the desk. You can do addition, subtraction, multiplication and division with these calculators. Using TOEPLER's method, one can calculate square roots, too. Other calculations involve mathematical series and/or approximation methods to calculate trigonometric functions or higher roots etc. So, for the mathematically gifted, these calculators were a real help. It was used in business calculations, too, and the instruction manuals for these machines gave very nice examples for everyday office calculations in accounting, salary payment, banking etc.

Many thanks for this appreciation of Syd's work. Unaware at the time of his connection to the school I was also a pupil at Perth Academy and for a while lived just around the corner from Malvina Place in Perth and although I didn't know of Jeff Hawke at the time my eyes were opened when the Daily Record started Lance McLane and I faithfully clipped every single strip until the sudden and very unexpected end of that strip. Still have them in a shoe box in the loft. The Jeff Hawke club have now finished reprinting every Hawke and McLane(as Hawke) story now - very well worth collecting if you can find them as are the Italian reprints - even if you don't speak the language. I've been fortunate enough to correspond with Syd and at one stage had worked on a CGI version of McLane to continue the strip but the demands of family and the need for a regular 9-5 wage took me in other directions. That said, I learned a great deal about drawing and panel construction from Syd, lessons I still use to this day in my strip art - when time allows of course. Thanks again for the appreciation.

I trained as a nurse at Ninewells Hospital and Dundee Royal Infirmary 1980-1983. I also worked there as a Staff Nurse in urology in 1984 at the DRI. I loved the DRI and for a time lived in the Dalgleish Nurses Home - had a wonderful room in the attic overlooking Dudhope Park. The DRI was a wonderful place to live and work. I loved the old school nurses who taught me so much (even though I was a bit scared of a lot of them :) and the great community at the hospital. I guess I didn't appreciate its history so much at the time, but nonetheless I adored that old building and as I approach my retirement, its place in my personal history. Thanks for the video :)

The pangolins are cute❤

Hello Janet Tod . Do you remember a art teacher called Jim lowery. He was my granddad!

Hi Calum Strathie, do you remember a art teacher called Jim Lowery. He was my granddad!

That was excellent! Love the format of short talks from experts in different fields all connected to one topic. Thanks for recording and posting it - hope there will be more of these.

im interested in finding out more about the duncans from dundee as my grandmother immigrated to new Zealand in early 1900s but cant find her parents information..

👍

sun lighter

By doing successive subtraction, it can also divide!

This was awesome thank you so much

That was thoroughly enjoyable! So good to see so much of Ian's artwork on display and the telling of a few stories by Phillip, as he delights in showing us the works of a modern master!

As an Aussie, stuck over here in Adelaide, South Australia, I want to thank you for filming this. I'll never get a chance to visit an exhibition of Ian's work in real life, but thanks to this, I can at least experience some of it in all it's beautifully drawn glory.

A great tribute, many thanks. Next best thing to being there. I was only reading that "Invasion" strip a few weeks ago. That Future Shocks story looks terrific.

Wonderful to see this Phil. Congratulations!

Would've been great archival footage if it wasnt for all the jumping around and flashing nonsense

Great video, thanks! Long been an admirer of his work, but hadn't known of the connection with Patrick Geddes before.

Nice video. Well done. I hope to visit this year.

RIP David Sutherland I grew up collecting the Beanos

R.I.P David ;(

❤❤❤ thank you.

loving the history, hate the lip smacking after every sentence though.

We did a video about Adam Christie and we even got to touch one of his carved stones which was hidden in the Montrose hotel as we know the owner. SPiS….

Great videos! Loved learning about the history.

Thank you for this fascinating video. George Pirie was my Great Grandfather, and I have recently inherited that very Carnegie Medal! I did once visit the museum with my Father (George’s Grandson) and saw his hand! Next time I’m anywhere near Dundee I would like to visit again with my children.

I’ve seen most of these but didn’t know about the flower holders, so it’s good to learn something. Another great video thanks.

Fantastic stuff…thanks very much, really enjoying your series….I’ve seen most of these things but there’s one or two that I’ll need to go and find…😎👍

Another great and informative video…..

I’ve found out the names of the couple who designed the windows……they did a few more windows and doors in the area as well……can you give me an email to get in contact with you…..these videos are fantastic and really informative….We have a Facebook place..Strange places in Scotland and would really like to help . Thanks.

Fantastic…thank you.
