But surely Euclid Crescent should be Bash Street?

the school outside the DCT offices that inspired the strip should be renamed in it's honour.

Col: from the actual DCT buildings, from about the second floor up or higher, you get a grandstand view of this school and courtyard, and it's easy to see why someone came up with the idea for this strip. It's a really old-fashioned-looking school [almost Victorian looking], and looks the sort of place where much 'whacking' would have occured at one time!

Peter, there isn't even an Acacia Road in Dundee to be able to live at No.29.

I think this should get a mention in The Beano especially as it is to mark The Bash Street Kids 60th. I remember the issue of The Dandy that had the strip about the statues of Desperate Dan and Minnie the Minx in Dundee.
