Just treated myself to a proper sit down lunch in a steak house.
I paid the £13-odd bill with two tenners.
Among my change was a Scottish £5 note.
Yes, it's legal tender, but I reckon it might be difficult to pass it elsewhere around here.
I'm just outside Durham City, hardly close to Scotland, which is the best part of 100 miles away.
Would you have taken the note in the same circumstances?
