Having lived in 'The Fair City' myself ... for nearly 42 years ... I've yet to come across a "Perthite" with ANY sense of humour. For all that the town is sometimes alluded to as being 'The Gateway To The Highlands', I imagine its "natives" probably still think of a Skean Dhu as a "Ski-ing Pigeon" ... !
