To be honest 'Chin wag' sounds a bit Chinese.
Now come on all the true Lancastrians, and give me the origins of this expression

Not all Lanky expressions can be traced back to there origins, some are 100's of years old.
I can trace two sayings that were once in common useage, Gone Doolally, and All my eye and Betty Martin.
