Aye I looked it up, google is our friend, I thought it was slang for something else.
We have them here in America as well, according to Wiki.

I'm pretty sure the kind of nettles they're talking about are sea nettles - not the kind in the woods:rolleyes:

Sea nettles will kick your ass - I remember them being pretty thick in south jerz a couple years ago.

I know those, I've had my ass kicked by one of those when I was about 15. Ripped me along my back and down my right arm, getting wrapped/stuck/tangled around my forearm, wrist area, which I than grabbed with my left hand and ripped off.

That was not a good night.

These are just what I think of as "bigger" red jellies.
