Quick Summary
This discussion explores the validity of a promissory note stating 'I promise to pay X or Y £10,000'. While promissory notes are legally binding written contracts, they are only valid for 3 years from the date of execution. The note's validity is questioned due to the uncertainty of payment to 'X or Y', which may render it unenforceable.

All Promissory Notes are valid only for a period of 3 years starting from the date of execution, after which they will be invalid. There is no maximum limit in terms of the amount which can be lent or borrowed. The issuer / lender of the funds is normally the one who will hold the Promissory Note.Promissory notes are a valuable legal tool that any individual can use to legally bind another individual to an agreement for purchasing goods or borrowing money. A well-executed promissory note has the full effect of law behind it and is legally binding on both parties.For the promissory note to be valid, and therefore enforceable, it should be in the form of a written contract. 

But promise to pat X or Y is uncertain
