So ancient it has been dead for aeons. No chance of seeing one this century (or last, for that matter) so my comment stands.

TBH I don't know, its just one of those stereotype sentences that we Scots "Always" say. I've never heard of anyone actually saying it.

I'll take a stab at it though.....

"Och aye.." means "Oh Yes"

"The noo..." means "now"

so I'd guess it means "Oh yes (I'm fine) right now". Possibly after being asked how your are doing, otherwise it means "Oh yes right now", which has no meaning
