	NEFA - Fishers' Customs, Beliefs and Superstitions (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
		As Peter Buchan describes in his book, this led to names being changed thus a pig became a “grunter” or a Sandy Campbell or “Sonnie Cammie”; the salmon became a “reid fish” or simply “caul iron” and the rabbit became a “fower-fitter” or a “mappie”.
		It is reported that a mermaid was seen ‘pitching upon the bowsprit of a small Peterhead vessel, causing the aforementioned boat to smash against rocks near Slains Castle.
		All hands perished except one.’ And in the words of Peter Buchan, again, the mere mention of the word ‘minister’ on board was and I think still is, considered to bring bad luck.
