There's a few planters of that shape at ScotRail stations.

I'll take a guess at Brora.

I dunno about that, he did brag that he'd taken a trip on MetroBus and had hoped he'd worn a hoodie like Red Squirrel Junior so as to escape the "Arctic Blast" of MetroBus's air conditioning.

You've got the right country, but not Brora...

OK, it was Bridge of Allan. Would it have helped if I had panned out this far?

Planning to this level might have been better!

I remember when Bridge of Allan opened which fortunately conicided with a school friend moving there. No more buses to Bridge of Allan or trains to Dunblane (and doubling back).

I was going to go with Perth and I'll award myself a half point (as no one else probably will) for being on the right line Smiley
