What a Outrage using Scottish Pounds!


[A campaign has been launched to
make Scottish currency legal tender
across the UK after Judy Murray
was told she couldn't buy doughnuts with it.
The 59-year-old coach - and mother of tennis
superstars Andy and Jamie - tried to pay
for two doughnuts at a London bakery
on Sunday, but was told her Scottish currency was not valid.
Murray, whose sons have
won Grand Slam titles including
Wimbledon, tweeted: "When you go
to pay £9 for 2 donuts (yes, really)
in London and your £10 Bank of Scotland
note is refused because "we only take British ones".]

[According to the Royal Mint, the phrase "legal tender" is a narrow technical term
referring to the settlement of debts,
and in ordinary transactions both parties can agree to accept "any form of payment".]
