    Dont give them away just yet. There are sites on the web where you can check if they have any value as collectables. They may be worth more than you realise.
    Just be yourself, no one else is better qualified!!

    Have you tried Queenscourt hospice.?

    Then on we sail,
    Never thinking that the wind could ever fail,
    No one gets to heaven till they"ve lived a while in hell,
    And even then its rare
    That you"ll be going there.

    I like Scottish money.

    The water marks are so interesting.

    The number of Scottish people who tell me a lot of English shops will not accept Scottish notes.

    I tell them, if you by from me with a Scottish £20 Note I class it as being worth £22.

    Yes I give 10% more for Scottish notes.

    This is not a wind up.

    I also sell my £9.99 St George flag mugs to the Scots for only £1.99.

    We just keep ours next to the Euro's ready for the next venture across the border.

    Of course when Scotland switches to The Euro.......

    Don't hold on to Euro's,

    When Britain leave the Euro Market

    They may devalue the Euro to compensate and fight The British for export markets

    No one ever talks on the news about this option, not even my mate Ted Turner.

    I paid for a tube ticket in London with a Scottish fiver once - you should have seen the look the guy in the booking office gave me ! He was a Londoner through and through and had probably never set foot outside of the M25 !!

    I love Scottish notes as they are so colourful !
