Frankly, I am more amused about Arthur's seat being described as "one of Edinburgh's top attractions".

Well it is located at the highest point in the 640 acre Royal Park next to Holyrood Palace, so I guess that makes it a ‘top’ attraction in one sense.

He's obviously a very clever man, Elegran. I bet he can do a better job of proof-reading than that too!

They just made a mistake and didn’t edit it.

Don't spoil the joke, FC 😂

From a Facebook entry entitled "8 Interesting Facts about Arthur’s Seat, Top Attractions in Edinburgh"
"Over the years, the renowned hill has appeared in numerous books. Innumerable Ian Rankin books include Frankenstein by Mary Shelley, One Day by David Nicholls, The Underground City by Jules Verne, and many others." I didn't know that Ian Rankin was a busy ghost-writer, or that he was as old as that.
