Uh…I believe the “Perth” in question here is the one in Scotland, since they mention “Perth and Kinross” and the Stone of Destiny (i.e. the Stone of Scone), while I’m guessing you’re referring to the city in Western Australia (of which I have some good memories 😊). But what the heck do I know, I’m just a dumb American…

Wait! You mean everytime I eat a scone, I’m eating a Stone of Destiny? Awesome!

Confusingly, while the baked good rhymes with 'gone' or 'cone' (regional variations), the important rock rhymes with 'boon'.
