Fish Out Of Water

Feeling out of place: a fish out of water,
'Snobby' Perthite decamped 22 miles downwater
To City of Discovery; home of Oor Wullie,
The Broons, The Courier, Sunday Post, Evening Tullay.
Good points: Hilltown Writers' Group, DCA, Rep, entertainment;
Bad points: deprivation, depression, widespread unemployment,
Anti-social neighbours, crime, vandalism, litter louts,
But not all rosy in Perth either, swings and roundabouts.
So, go with the flow, make new friends, develop interests,
Realising Dundee's fine when you get to know it.
