Will English and Welsh retailers accept Scottish 100-pound notes?

Small retailers, except perhaps in Carlisle, Berwick, or Newcastle, wouldn't
see one in a month of Sundays - and many small English and Welsh retailers
won't accept any Scottish notes. After all, they are not legal tender, even
in Scotland. For that matter, Bank of England notes aren't legal tender in
Scotland (though legal tender has a narrow technical meaning).
