'Eh hud meh eh on a peh' by Norman Watson

Dundonians have a defining, distinctive way of expressing themselves and communicating feelings. The ancient citys characteristic accent can be heard in any Lochee bar or Hilltoon playground, or on any bus where Dundee grannies have extraordinary `Eh? `Eh! nodding conversations. And to the trained ear they make perfect sense!

Dr Norman Watson was a journalist with The Courier in Dundee for 25 years and wrote more than 5,000 news features for the paper. He remains a Courier columnist and is now publishing giant DC Thomson’s first-ever company historian.

An award-winning author, his books include the best-selling Dundee: A Short History (2006), The Biography of William McGonagall (2010) and the internationally-acclaimed Dundee Dicshunury (2012). As an historian he has co-curated major exhibitions in Dundee, London and Edinburgh and in 2006 was invited to open the Scottish Parliament’s first-ever public exhibition.
