Oh, Arthur's Seat is an extinct volcano. I've seen it on fire a few times though because there are a lot of gorse bushes on it and they burn very easily.

Yes, I've been to Dover but that was a long time ago. When I was a kid we went on holiday through Europe and I remember getting the ferry from Dover to Calais once. We went to a fish and chip shop and they had different types of fish on the menu, which is unusual because most fish and chip shops just serve hadock, or Japanese catfish, which is like hadock but cheaperr now and some chippies do cod. Dover sole is nice though.

I haven't spent much time in the south of England and we were always just passing through but my mother had friends in Leeds and Sheffield and we went there a few times when I was a kid. I remember being in Leeds during the great drought of 76 actually. They say that we get all of the crap weather in Scotland but it's England that gets those droughts and floods. Up here the worst we really ever get is blizzards and it's usually only people going walking in the hills in that weather that need rescuing.

Yes, the house where I lived when I was a kid was on the slopes of Arthur's Seat and I've been up there quite a few times but haven't climbed up there for years. I'm no climber and heights used to give me vertigo butt you can get up Arthur's Seat by just walking if you avoid the crags and steep slopes. I remember sitting up there with my family back in 1977 when the Queen had her silver jubilee parade here. We call the part of the town that Arthur's Seat is in "the park" and the castle is built on a rock that was the plug that came out of the volcano. I've climbed up the castle rock as well.

You can never really get lost in Edinburgh because you have those landmarks to help you get your bearings. We get a lot of tourists here but they mostly just come for the festival.
