I think a few stitches could make that whole again if you don't mind the look of a repair. If it were mine, I'd use red stitching so it looks intentional, and because I like red. Glue however, won't last very long, so I'd stay away from that unless you want to repeat the repair over and over. Glue will also be messy. Where are you located? I might be able to do it for you, or perhaps even point you in the direction of a leather crafter in your area.

Thanks @seawolf you’re so kind I don’t fancy posting a wallet leash half way around the world just for a little nick just because of my OCD. I can live with it for now. Thank you.

I once did a 'survival' weekend course with my boys. The guy (an ex-special forces) told us you need 22 squirrels per day to feed your daily needs of calories. European squirrels may be smaller than American, but I your dad must have been a good shooter.
(We ate rat on that weekend.)

How disappointing:
„Sheeran had made an earlier claim that he would quit the industry if he lost the case.“

@Tago-Mago LOL. Indeed, what a missed chance

@Tago-Mago you beat me to it!

It's a Brexit thing. I have been accused of being too openly pro-remain, but I still have not heard a single positive argument for leaving. It's not good for The EU and it's not good for The UK. A month or two after the split, I was contacted by a Dutch jeans maker, prior to Brexit, The UK had been his largest market when he wrote to me, he had not sold a single pair to the UK since the split.
If the items you bought were made in UK, you should not have been charged Duties, but VAT would have been due. If the items were not made in The UK or EU, you would have to pay Duties and VAT.
And not charging you anything in Dec 22, was pure luck
