The Scot's Language No.3 - Docken
Strimming is great, cutting a swathe through long grass, dockens and nettles. But, and there always is one, why do the break down every five minutes. No sooner are you into attacking the jungle of weeds when the line, jams, breaks, runs out. Why is that?

Used as in.
Boy 1 'oh shit I've just been stung by those nettles!'
Boy 2' 'rub a docken leaf on it ,that always works''
