...another ad seen here,

The Strand Magazine, Volume 26

( this vol. also features The Return of Sherlock Holmes at p360 )

Nice bit of info - thanks for sharing.
@tonguebitepipecleaner: Good Will Lunting - nice job.
@misterlowercase: good find!

 

[oklansas]

@misterlowercase, I wonder if the offer of a free sample for "six penny stamps" is still good?

"Я Лант моей трубки" for those who can't read Base64 text in their browser.
Literally, "I have my tube lunt."

 

[oklansas]

While not a purely pipe smoking related term, I still think it describes the pursuit of a Lunt quite well,

Does oblectation accompany your daily lunt?

 

[kashmir]

There is good reason to hunt a satisfying lunt!

For a post-prandial lunt always leads to deep oblectation.

Kashmir,

Thanks for the good information. When I first saw the word lunting in an earlier post, I thought it was a typo and the word should have been hunting. It is always great to learn something new.

Thanks for the info. Is there a word for "lunting while browsing and writing message on the forum using one's phone" ?

Thatsa difficult request there!
Not a word,

but

my best attempt at a very rough Scots translation would be;

Daunderin reekie an leukin tae menyie forby scrievin wirdie uisin mines gibblet.

Lang may yer lum reek!

The word is no longer obsolete since we all are going to be using it. Back from the dead!

 

[macaroon]

An excellent word for an excellent activity! Always nice to be reminded of this one.

That reminds me of an old joke about the streets in Chicago.
And Lunt
