    For those wondering "lang may yer lum reek" basically translates to "long may you chimney smoke" in other words i hope you're prosperous enough to always have enough fuel for your fire.

    I recently confirmed my scottish heritage via an ancestry dna kit(knew nothing of my fathers family) and i swear the next day one of your videos popped into my suggested videos and ive been hooked ever since! Im a celtic pagan and learning about these scottish traditions and folklore have really rounded out my spiritual practice. Plus super entertaining. I thank you my friend

    .What a truly precious gift! It reminds me of the widow's mite from the Bible. It is easy to toss a coin when your purse is full.

    Very cool historical info in the introduction! I had no idea Christmas had ever been banned in Scotland, that does explain why there's more enthusiasm for the new year!
