...nobody abroad would take any Scottish moneys

Not true.

[BarbarianAtTheDoor]

Not true.

Especially since it's still issued by the BoE and is still GBP, it just has a different name on it. In its current form, "their" money is no more than a bit of marketing.

EDIT: Oops, what I said was apparently factually wrong. Apparently, scottish pounds is not -strictly speaking- money, but a promissory note for the exact amount issued by the BoE. So it still represents the British Pound, but with those particular banks being the promissories. What a strange system.

Not true.

WHS.

It's always welcome in Greece

Not true.

Apologies, I should have qualified my statement - nobody abroad apart from banknote collectors would take Scottish money: compared to proper GBP they feel very cheap, I thought I had fake banknote given to me by the taxi driver with funny accent

They just didn't trust you. Try Monopoly money next time you might get a better result.

Sadly I do - when I had job interview many years in Dundee some taxi driver gave me funny money that later got refused in good old England

You got knocked back for a taxi role in Dundee?

I had job interview in 1999 there in a games company that made lemmings - by the time I reached it (via Glasgow) all I cared was to get the hell out of there before the last train to mainland was leaving, like at 2pm or so

I had interview at Codemasters also but my salary requirements were way higher than they expected slaves to work for, plus they made me write code on paper and do retarded IQ test

Can anybody explain to me please why would £100 note be printed in Scotland but not in England?

It just does not compute. Good luck exchanging one of those abroad for proper currency!

We don't need a wheelbarrow of notes for a night on the piss, two or three of those bad boy does the job. And I've exchanged £100 notes abroad no problem. I talk from experience, you talk out of your arse.
