sallabananas - believe me hen, if you had a lum you would definitely want it to reek!

funnygirl - howsitgaun hen?
oh please please .... what is a lum?
It's a chimney
Why would you want it to reek? I'm assuming reek means smell / stink? Or perhaps not.
Just us mad Scottish people lol
Lang may yer lum reek!
A Scottish salutation wishing long life and prosperity. Literally, long may your chimney smoke.
Aaah. I like that ;-)
