Broadside pastiche of the song 'Bonny Dundee' by Sir Water Scott (1771-1832) a romantic celebration of the Jacobite general John Graham of Claverhouse. This attacks corruption in Dundee's burgh council. The provost - head of the council - is lampooned for being a tax-dodger, and a bully to the ordinary worker.

"I found that the more I tried to find reasons for these emotions or tried to get rid of them, the stronger they became. Instead of trying to resolve or eliminate these feelings, I became interested in simply noticing and observing how they emerge, transform, and change."

Mary Shelley’s Gothic Dundee
26 August, online
SWI members free; non-members £6.13Mary Shelley was sent to Dundee as a teenager, & it was here, so she claimed in the 1831 edition of FRANKENSTEIN, that her eerie imagination was first stirred. What was so “gothic” about Dundee in the 1810s? And how did it inspire her? Prof Daniel Cook investigates.

Extremely impressed by Lost Orchards low alcohol #cider. It’s not got the full scrumpy-like whoomph of Sheppys low alcohol from Somerset. But it’s got a good sharpness, and smells like proper cider, albeit quite apple-y. Vastly better for us than Thatchers Zero, which we both disliked viscerally. And better than Sainsbury’s low alcohol which was the second best in my extensive taste test of low alcohol cider options. Best of all, it’s made in #Dundee, on the city edge. https://lostorchards.co.uk/collections/our-cider/products/copy-of-scottish-pure-apple-cider-low-alcohol
