Perth


We eft home about 1130 am this morning. We got a lot done before we left.

We stopped at Stiling for lunch, then went on the short distance to Dunblane.

Dunblane, of course, will always be remembered because ofthe massacre that took place there in the local primary school not so many years ago.

Then w drove on up the A9 till we reached our destination.

And we will be staying here, at The Glovers Arms till Friday.

Tomorrow we will spend in Dundee.

Dundee has many claims to fame.

It is the home of "Discovery", the ship hich took Captain Scott to the South Pole.

It was the home of jute making, andmarmalademaking.

It is also where the publisher DC Thomson began, giving the world such cartoon characters as Denis the Menace....Desperate Dan....Oor Wullie..and the Broons.

If you have never heard of them....google them!
