    At the present time buyers come to certain houses buying animals. When a bargain is concluded between two the buyer often asks the seller to hold out his hand, he strikes his hand and walks a few paces away. When an animal is bought she is marked with a coloured material like chalk. When a bargain is concluded the seller gives back a few shillings it is called "Luck money"
