Un petit language lesson: Edinburgh is pronounced Edin-bra. Everyone says cheers after everything, not just when you order a drink. Firth means estuary, so the Firth of Forth is the estuary of the River Forth. Stewart is a very common name here, but people from North Ireland (they have the thickest accents) say it Stew-eh, practically swallowing the r; its one syllable too, like Stuy.
