In 1952,[28] Buffett married Susan Thompson at Dundee Presbyterian Church and the next year they had their first child, Susan Alice Buffett.

The startup I worked on: Mindwarp Pavillion in Dundee got licensing rights to stacks of textbooks.

I think because people from outside Australia often have the preconception that Aussies should sound like crocodile-dundee, or as we call it - 'okka'.

The Dundee guys have found plenty of natural language argument (it's everywhere, just like in this post) but haven't been able to get many to actually mark up their thoughts.

I've heard a similar argument made for why Dundee became a hub of computer game development in the UK — access to cheap computers for working-class families.

Scotland doesn't have the same immigration issues as other parts of the UK as far as I can tell in this [1] map you can see the areas with major cities are clearly home to more migrants - Glasgow, Edinburgh and I'm guessing that's Dundee and Perth and Aberdeen [which might be skewed by oil workers?].

I've been at my most productive working in: - Wetherspoons in Slough - An apartment in Cairo - A bungalow in Lanzarote - The lobby of the Apex hotel in Dundee (current) Downsides are seeing a laptop screen in the sun (wear a dark shirt) and being surrounded by happy couples while on one's own.
