Help with last two please?

Clues annotated with (Sc) will be a Scottish or Scottish dialect word, term or slang. If not annotated (Sc) then it's a normal British/English word or term. I can't guarantee given letters are correct yet as it's difficult, sometimes with obscure spelling variations. Take letters given with pinch of salt in some cases.

 

2d. Mix-up (Sc) (3,1,6)  ?A?  A  ?A?D?E

Already considered something a Fankle and something a maddie etc - but either doesn't fit with existing letters or can't find any reference to prove.

 

6d. Wooden bowl (Sc) (4)  ?O?N

Already considered Bool but doesn't fit with existing letters.

 

Just for confidence of some of my adjoining letters:

8a. Leave (6) ?A???E (I have VACATE)

11a. Small boat (6) D???H? (I have DINGHY)

Thanks all

You can't make some of this up - it sounds like childs talk in some cases.

Thanks for that John.
