There was just time to show me a few more sights of Edinburgh. Here I am by the Royal Yacht Britannia:

For over forty years Britannia served the Royal Family, as a floating Royal Residence. As well as travelling over one million miles across the world on official Royal visits, Britannia hosted Royal banquets and receptions and was also used for honeymoons of Princess Margaret, Princess Anne, Prince Charles and Princess Diana and Prince Andrew. Britannia is now permanently moored in Edinburgh's historic port of Leith and has become a tourist attraction.
