I watched a program a while ago and they said theres thousand and thousands more sheep in england than wales 
Maybe in england theyre all to busy stabbing each other to shag sheep i guess?
Yeah we have lots of sheep as we get wool and meat from them - where as in Wales sheep are seen as suitable girlfriends.

Scottish notes are NOT legal tender, its down to the person to choose to accept them or not.
They arent even legal tender in scotland, only coins are here.

From looking at it there are no legal notes at all in scotland, be they english or scottish.
You do however have to take any 'acceptable' payment, which scottish notes are.

Only coins are legal tender in scotland. Tis a complicated situation, which is why people accept them.

Only to settle a debt though. If the payment is for goods in advance, the seller does not have to accept anything, and it is purely their choice on what to accept. This is legal under the 'invitation to treat' law.
However, if it is to settle a debt then any 'legal tender' must be accepted.
To quote wiki:
quote:
In some jurisdictions, a currency holding the status of legal tender can be refused as payment if no debt exists prior to the time of payment (for example, where the obligation to pay arises substantially contemporaneously with the offer of payment). Consequently vending machines and transport staff do not have to accept the largest denomination of banknote for a single bus fare or bar of chocolate. Shopkeepers can reject large banknotes — this is covered by the legal concept known as invitation to treat. However, restaurants that do not collect money until after a meal is served would have to accept that legal tender for payment of the debt incurred in purchasing the meal.

always have this problem when i get back from scotland with a whole wallet full of scottish notes
really pisses me off that retarded tescos checkout workers are so idiotic and uneducated that they can't figure out what fucking country the money comes from!!!
it's fucking pound sterlings ffs not urguanian moohampoo's.
they look at me like i'm some dodgy drug dealer with fake money and won't accept it.
luckily the post office will exchange any socttish notes for english ones free of charge.
