Is the haggis now legal tender?

I am hoping it will be tender; N is a very good cook.

Scots law has in effect a rather broad definition of legal tender. Officially Royal Mint coins in various amounts and Bank of England notes below the value of £5 (see the problem) are the only forms of legal tender, but a creditor is obligued to accept any reasonable settlement of a debt. If there is a dispute then a court decides on what counts as a reasonable settlement.

So you could pay somebody in haggis, and if you got the right judge it could be held to be reasonable and the other party would have to accept it.

But I like neeps, and if I didn't I could hit the bugger over the head with them

[livejournal.com profile] bugshaw here:
That'd have to be a judge who didn't mind being paid himself in haggis.

Actually, when Simon has finished his legal training, he might become that sort of judge!
