If ever you've wanted to be a land owner, but not been too keen on the fact that it costs an arm and a leg, then this delightfully silly, yet nevertheless legitimate title deed is the answer. And of course it makes a great and original present. The title of Laird means land owner, it's a title that can be used by men or women.
This title document will certify that you (or the lucky recipient if you're feeling generous) will become a genuine land owner of a part of the Glencairn estate in the Scottish Highlands, i.e. a 'Laird of Glencairn'. You'll receive a registration code, which you register online or by post, and then an official title certificate and a 'Proof of Title' card. Once you've registered, you are welcome to visit the area where your land is located, where you can pace your boundaries (which admittedly won't take long as each plot of land only measures 1ft Square). You even have free access to the Laird's Retreat on the banks of Loch Riddon. The Retreat boasts excellent camping and free fishing rights (Lairds must bring their own equipment). It's a great bit of fun, you really will own a chunk of Scotland, and not only that, it's actually helping to preserve areas of land in the Scottish Highlands.
The area of Glencairn is near to the oldest Stone Age site in Britain - the Grey Cairns of Camster, as well as the Long Cairn of Camster which was used for many centuries as a burial chamber for the first Highland Clan Chiefs. Thankfully the likelihood of border disputes and clan wars is minimal, and there's nothing like the knowledge that you are a legitimate landowner (though you may feel moved to join the Countryside Alliance and wear tweed in the privacy of your own home).

I actually bought one of these as a wedding present for my new husband. He loved it so much that he bought one as a gift for his best man to say thank you. His title hangs pride of place on our living room wall. So thanks IWOOT for making his day.

Dear Sirs, I recently purchased a Laird of Glencairn gift box for my husband and wish to complain. This gift came with no health warning, such as "This gift can seriously damage your mental health and if affected this does not mean you can drive a tractor. It may also impair your ability to maintain a healthy marriage" Since receiving his gift my husband has become seriously deranged, requiring myself and our sons to address him only as Laird and will respond only if spoken to in a scottish accent. He has also taken to wearing a kilt (in the traditional way) which is unfortunate as he is a window cleaner.
We have been granted some respite as he is presently sectioned for an unfortunate accident where his sporran became entangled in a venetian blind. He is keeping himself occupied by building a miniature caravan out of scone crumbs to site on his plot of land. We are unsure when he will be released as he is refusing treatment unless he can be seen by DR. Finlay. The upside is, I am planning a convalescence trip for him to his country retreat for a bit of camping and fishing in the glorious scottish air and am presently trying to convince him that we will not be able to tow his caravan. On a thrifty note for our scottish brethren, the tin makes a lovely container for scones and I have used the tartan wrapping to line a drawer.
