For instance, when the St Petersburg String Quartet played earlier this year at the Bell Street Centre, they ran a workshop in a local school, albeit one in Carnoustie.

Everyone knows who benefits most from Dundee’s services.

Past Dundee councils have been labelled as being profligate with taxpayers money. The present administration needs to shake off its soft touch image.

The irony is that for as long as services are openly available to those who have left the city, there is no incentive for them to return.

So the ordinary working class kids of Dundee will continue to get short-changed while the already hard-pressed adults are left to pick up the tab. — Dundee Council Taxpayer.

As I thought about it, I couldn’t remember seeing the filter in operation even once since the new junction was built.

What seems to happen is that when traffic turns left from Dudhope Terrace on to Lochee Road, which is when you’d expect the filter light to come on, the pedestrians’ green man lights up, even when there’s not a pedestrian in sight.

I doubt if the filter light is connected to the system. — Dundee Driver.

He went nose to nose with the referee at the end of a match, which his team lost.

This official should be barred from the line for life.

Also, the behaviour and language from the lines were awful.

Young lads should be playing for fun and, if winning trophies gets grown men angry, maybe it’s time to stop playing for cups.

Referees should consider striking and let these people try it themselves.

The referee in this instance is to be applauded for staying cool. — Sam The Spectator.

The roots of indiscipline lie both in schools and in society.

There are now those who go on about their rights, but refuse to carry out their responsibilities.

There are many one-parent families where there is no longer, or never was, a father to discipline out-of-control boys.

There is a general lack of respect for age, experience and authority.

Celebrities such as footballers and pop stars behaving badly in public are the heroes of the young.

That allied to a contempt for anything that requires hard work, such as studying at school, contributes to indiscipline in schools. — City Centre Citizen.

There has been a marked increase in people bringing their dogs on board.

I have nothing against our four-legged friends, but feel they take up precious space on an already-congested service.

Not only do they travel free, but dog owners seem to think their dogs lying across a narrow gangway is acceptable.

I almost went my length last week over a large Alsatian. I feel either this practice should be banned or a charge introduced on a par with the owner. — Dog Walker, Dundee.

I contacted the anti-social behaviour team. I told them that I was putting up with this neighbour banging on my wall in the middle of the night.

I got no help whatsoever from the anti-social team.

This neighbour’s behaviour is making me ill, but no-one seems to want to help me. — Harassed OAP.

I know there are loads of roads in Dundee requiring repairs – but this gully is extremely bad.

You don’t notice it until it’s too late.

Every time I pass there I try to dodge that bit, but I notice an ever increasing number of wheel discs lying around. — Dodgem.

The ones in question are the two placed in Dundee’s Victoria Park Bowling Green.

These have no back support.

These benches are used regularly by both young and old while watching the bowlers.

Unfortunately, many leave soon complaining of a sore back. — Back-Up, Dundee.
