They shouldn't have problems - I've spent NI notes in Scotland without problems. As [livejournal.com profile] nhw says, they're better prepared then most English businesses.

Here in Southampton, I've had a transaction refused when I tried to pay for part of a newspaper with a Guernsey 20p coin (pointing out Liz's head didn't help), despite the fact that you find them often in your change. The students' union at the University has a policy of not accepting Channel Islands coinage - but will accept NI and Scottish notes, Isle of Man coinage, Gibraltar coinage (with Southampton being a port city, and Portsmouth being close at hand, Gibraltar £1 coins are not uncommon) and St Helena and Ascension coinage (really!) without question.

One of these days, I really must take photos of the odd sterling coinage that I've found in my change...
