Cap that

Sir: There are a few inaccuracies in Ross Clark's article about the Scottish Buddhists (`Scotch on the rocks, 23 July'), the gravest being the claim they are the only Buddhists in the world who wear baseball caps. In my possession is a delightful photograph of HH the Dalai Lama wearing a maroon baseball cap, matching his robes.
