Nae my fault if you and yer pal arnae upon "oldie speak".


Maybe too "oldie" for an as cool as fück punter like me.

I have spent some time in the alps and the sound of cows with bells is lovely, can't say it helps understand the saying though.
Cows don't follow the one with the bell, so it can't be that.
