A very popular man dies in Aberdeen and his old widow wishes to tell all his friends at once, so she goes to the Aberdeen Evening Express and says, 'I'd like tae place an obituary fur ma late husband.'
The man at the desk says, 'OK, how much money dae ye have?'
The old woman replies, '£5' to which the man says, 'Ye won't get many words for that but write something and we'll see if it's ok.'
So the old woman writes something and hands it over the counter.
The man reads 'Peter Reid, fae Kincorth, deid.' He feels sad at the abruptness of the statement and encourages the old woman to write a few more things, saying, 'I think we cud allow 3 or 4 more words fer ye money.'
The old woman ponders and then adds a few more words and hand the paper over the counter again. The man then reads - 'Peter Reid, fae Kincorth, deid. Ford Escort for sale.'
So when they come down here I will finally be able to say, "I think you'll find it's not ******* legal tender pal!"
You can already say that now. Scottish banknotes are not legal tender in England - never have been - legal tender means you must accept them for payment. In fact Scottish banknotes are not even legal tender in Scotland.

Banknotes do not have to be classed as legal tender to be acceptable for trade; millions of retail transactions are carried out each day in the UK using cheques, debit cards or credit cards, none of which is a payment using legal tender.
