Yet we're now stuck here until Monday? :lol:

In my defence, I thought we may have been near Dunkeld & Birnam station.

We have no option other than to retire for the weekend, where we return for the 0937 Stagecoach Perth service 60 to Blairgowrie (Wellmeadow), arriving there at 1007 on Monday morning

Need a break from all this travelling occasionally ;) - we were up at 04:20 Friday morning! Also Balnaguard has a rather nice looking hotel :D.

Spending a little while admiring the lovely town of Blairgowrie, we next board the 10:55 Stagecoach Perth service 34 to Caputh, at Bus Shelter, arriving at 11:18 Monday morning.
