In my Force and my country we could and would not accept such a gratuity, nor would we be able or permitted to sit and eat in public whilst in uniform and on duty.
However, sadly I surmise that you did not read the information regarding my expertise and that your question does not relate to Scotland (or any other part of the UK).
