      Depending on where in Scotland the term Doss is used, determines what meaning is intended to be conveyed.
      In Edinburgh for example, If Bob was to call his mate Tam a Doss cunt, he would be using the term as an adjective to mean thick, useless, stupid.
      However,
      If the term doss is used in Perthsire, Angus, and the North East, then it is generallt intended to mean...Ace, Fantastic, shit-hot, etc..
