  The Queen's favourite cruise ship spent the night in Dover last night. The Hebridean Princess has been chartered by HM The Queen on several occasions. She certainly makes an interesting contrast with today's other visitor, Holland America's Eurodam.

  Is that right Kevin..the Queens favourite. She clearly has good sea legs as its very small, hardly noticed it. Bet that gets tossed around when negotiating Hebridean waters. Yes its still there too dwarfed by the Eurodam in case anyone wants to see it.

  Not bad at £250,000 a time, she is tiny by modern standards but very exclusive, with only 45 cabins I believe
