I did look for a link that would explain it, but the first umpteen pages that I found just used it without any explanation. It is Scots, but I think it is probably fairly well understood in England too as there's a well known :-) English traditional song called D'ye ken John Peel?. Apparently it's from the north of England, where they're likely to have more vocabulary in common with we Scots (and big Scots too :-).
