I've got some train tickets to and from Perth that I bought as a flexipass and didn't use all of; anyone got any recommendations for things to do over there? I'm going to swing by the museum with the Stone of Destiny but haven't given the rest of the time much thought yet
Favourite spots in the evening: I'm not sure, actually. I grew up in a town next to a fairly big loch and it was wonderful on a sunny evening with the very specific requirement that it had to be windy enough to keep the midgies off. The low light playing on gentle waves is always a pleasant atmosphere if you can get it, though
Ah'm nae sure fits in Perth mahsel actually. Nae much I suspect

Black Watch museum would be good I bet, plenty of tours. Kinnoull hill looks a pretty walk too. And I saw the stone in Edinburgh castle already: and I can confirm it is a stone
I can confirm that Kinnoull Hill is a nice walk. The view from the folly is great, although it's a bit of a shame that the traffic sounds on the road below are so loud. I've done the bLack Watch (took my grandmother there back when that wave of poppies artwork was on display). I'm perhaps more interested in the history around the stone than the stone itself in the museum. I agree, it's not exactly an artistic masterpiece haha. I haven't seen wikivoyage before, thank you for the link
