A Stafainn man was known locally as one people took the mickey out of. Through time, he grew used to being the brunt of jokes, to the extent that he was often ready for an attack. At a fank one day, a crofter was talking about how he was shortly going to be buying cows. The breed was to be brand new to the area. The breed was called Jersey cows. 'Oh, aye' said the fellow, defensively, 'is tha mi lan chreidsinn gur e cardigan a bha na mhathair' (yes, and I'm sure the cow's mother is a cardigan).
