Great example here
You see the difference in location between the "Welcome to Scotland" sign - and the county welcome sign behind it
well this is due to a legal "funny" thing
The official map defining the county boundary is obviously drawn to scale - and the pen used to draw it has a finite thickness
Hence the country starts at one place and the county starts a few yards later - the difference bing the scaled up thickness of the pen used to define the border on the official map!
I know this to be true as it was explained to me by a Geography teacher - so it must be true!!
(having said which - his wife was sitting next to him at the time and she rolled her eyes quite dramatically when he said it - she was also a Geography teacher!!!)
