Yer WHAT?!?

       Being unlike any Scotch Pie I have ever seen in 80+ years I just HAD to check if it was me, or them.
       Well; seems to be them on two counts.
1. Not a single Pie, in 5 or 6 pages of photos even vaguely resembled these.
2. "What makes a Scotch Pie different from other meat pies?
The difference between a Scotch pie to other meat or mince pies is the pastry, called “hot water pastry”. It’s more like a crust rather than a flaky pastry, meaning it can be moulded to form the distinctive round with straight sides.
The pastry lid of the pie is placed about a centimetre below the top of the sides, allowing for the pie to easily be eaten by hand with an extra topping like sauce, mash, gravy, or baked beans filling the gap."
