My friend was telling me about a huge siege cannon he saw in Edinburgh castle called "Mons Meg". We looked and looked for a history of the gun on the web and could find no pictures and very little history about the thing.

Can anyone send (or post) links to sites that show the cannon and tell about it? Or does no such thing exist (the website, that is)?

Haveing little else to do today, I have looked through a bunch o web pages. Nothing. The only pic of the cannon, that I've found, is the one in the link above.
