Dundee - home of cake and also home to the Alliance Investment Trust, that has now launched an on line investment platform that allows you to hold shares in other investment trusts, unit trusts, etc, and have them assembled in one place, bought for a reasonable £12.50 a trade and managed free of charge. They want you to hold Alliance Trust shares as well, of course, but there's no obligation. Anyway, Alliance Investment Trust is a good safe core holding.
