Default Best Scottish/Aberdonian Word?

I'm trying to think of an decent list of proper Local or Scottish words, my favourites thus far are.

Chunty - A toilet
Tranny - An old fashioned radio
Cloot - Washing cloth

There's got to be better ones out there....

Oxter - Armpit

I always say that one to my girlfriend and she thinks I just made it up.

Might any of these help?

brander....those little drains in the gutters.
mochy...not exactly sure, but a mochy day isnae fine.
