I always say, my hair is “tatty” when it needs a brush, which I thought everyone did. I also thought everyone said theyd “get wrong” if they were in trouble

Plodge! No one outside the north east knows plodge. I love that word. Paddle is too vague, it could mean you had a kayak or a boat, plodge is straight to the point, no confusion
