Comrie
"Today,
I visited the link to' petrol pumps' on the EdinPhoto web site
and was amazed to see photos of 'Fina station in
Highland Perthshire 1980s'
This
is 5 miles east of my home in St Fillans. The petrol
station is situated
in Burrell Street, Comrie.
In the 1970s, I had a caravan at St Fillans and used to
buy fuel here for my boat on Loch Earn. The owners Tommy
and Margaret Douglas became good friends when I moved up here,
around 1981.

They ran the garage from 1975 until the July 4, 2008. I
believe that the new owner will continue to operate as a
garage and M.O.T station which would be good for the
community.
New roller doors have just been fitted. Tonight, I
visited Tommy and Margaret to tell them of your photos, and
they were delighted
