    Instructions carried out as ordered...

    I cannot really see my humour or a fine example of renaissance sculpture (which is on public display at the Met for all to see) falls foul of The Rules.

    But there we go.

    You may consider me duly chastised - knuckles rapped, knees slapped and the naughty step is now my seat. Any apologies demanded are freely given.

    This is the sort of thing that makes buying Scottish-made things difficult.

    This sporran says "Made in Scotland" both in the title and in the description, but under "Country/Region of Manufacture" it says Pakistan.

    I've seen sporrans with this very 'Made In Scotland Real Leather' stamp that I've had worries about. This only adds to the questions.

    There's a seller that lists on Amazon who I strongly suspect is using a stamp like this on Pakistani products.
