Burdock is notable for the burs which children of all ages like to throw at the clothing of their friends. It's very similar and often found in similar places to the thistle. Both are part of the huge daisy family of plants. Burdock is also a constituent of one of my favourite soft drinks, Dandelion and Burdock. The best producer of this is Fentimans - not too fizzy.
The thistle below is the creeping thistle though sometimes it manages to stand pretty tall.
