This is a part of a huge fleet of toy ships at Camperdown Park in Dundee, in Tayside (just across the river from Fife).

One of the p3s is about to make someone walk the plank.

Camperdown Park was given to another Scottish sea-captain, Admiral Duncan, about 200 years ago, by the city of Dundee to thank him for winning a big victory over the Dutch fleet at a place the Dutch called Kampe Duijn - which when they say it sounds like "Camperdown" in English.

More recently it's become a big country park with lots of games for children, including radio-controlled boats, rowing boats, and racing bikes (see next page).

Recommended to any children visiting the north-east!
