Lemmings statues put up in Dundee, opposite the former DMA Design office

[Prob Lem]

I was just pointed to this by someone else - I can't believe that we missed it until now!

A few weeks ago, some Lemmings statues appeared, climbing a pillar, in Dundee, opposite the building which housed the former DMA Design office (which, if memory serves, has had a commemorative plaque on it for some time) where Lemmings was originally created.

I could only repeat those words. Dundee would now make a nice tourist attraction! I sure hope these lemmings will stay there, so that I can take some pictures myself...
