corbie stanes.

"Skip up the corbie stanes, shin along the heid, a wee loup tae yir plettie, in yir scratcher windie an yir maw'll niver ken ye've been oot boozin."

Translation:

corbie stanes: the projections in a crowstep gable.

"Skip up the gable steps, shin along the roof ridge, a small leap to your balcony, climb in your bedroom window and your mum will never know that you have been out drinking alchohol."
