"Not negotiable" cheques
Most people "cross" their cheques and write the words "not negotiable" between the lines. This is a good idea because it tells the bank that the cheque should not be paid on demand, and must instead be paid into the account of the payee. This means the cheque will go through the clearing system and find its way to the payee's account.
If the cheque is not crossed it is considered a legal "negotiable instrument" i.e. almost like cash, the amount named on the cheque can transferred on delivery to the bank.
