Thank you.

And may I ask what exactly means " o' "? As I grasped it's some kind of abbreviation of "on" or "of", but I don't know it for sure.

Hi Denny, and welcome to English Forums.

Yes, o' is short of of.

One quick thing: Advice is not countable, so you need advice, or some advice, but not an advice.
