My brother in law is from Norn’ Iron and comes out with some funny sayings 
My starter for ten;
Hot press = airing cupboard 
Anyone got anything else?.
Well a press is a cupboard over there,and a shed is a garage,no matter how big and well equipped,the crust of a loaf of bread is the heel,can’t think of anymore off the top of my head!

Number 1 thing about being a Tang you have to be able to shout “HEY BAI” (pronounced “Hay Bye”) very VERY loudly
is that meant to mean hello or goodbye
Can mean both a friendly greeting or a stern warning depending on the decibel level and tone of the shout 
You will know a tang on the road because you will be saluted with the official tang salute, a hand movement ending with the thumb up and 4 fingers down, the kind of thing you do to flick ■■■■ off your fingers
Just had to post a link:
Hitler and the Tangs, enjoy :
DO NOT watch if your “church going”

Here I am,thanks for waiting brothers. Here is a story I put together last week which should sum a tang up for yourwhen god made a tang
The lord created a truck driver and is sixth day over time when an angel appeared and said hey boss you doing a lot of fuppin about on this one.
And the lord said “have you seen the spec on this order”?
This is a tang spec.He will wear shiny pair of super hampton boots. These will enhance his driving abilities. He will be fitted with night vision eyes which enables him to overtake on blind corners on the 75 and the 41.The TANG spec will run on red bull,coffee and pro plus tablets and smoke 24 volt ■■■■. This will help him stay awake twice the length of a normal driver. When you meet this tang on the road you will be greeted with “well tang”
He has to be able to live in his truck 24hrs 7 days a week. His truck will be fitted with Tang curtains pulled over the drivers window till you can just barely see the mirrors. He will carry a picture of his truck for those lonely moments in his bunk.
A Tang uniform would include a scania jacket, a pair of jeans, he will wear a check sayst and will be fitted with a gold chain around the neck. But the chain is not a requirement but the brown boots is a must. These boots would founder you this weather.
The Angel slowly shook her head and said " brown fuppin boots" “no way”
“Its not the boots that’s causing me problems” said the lord. Its the v8 pants, jocks and socks he will wear
“Is that on the standard Tang model?” Asked the angel
The lord noddedThe Tang model will make up a story about how he got one over on the Vosa/RSA. He will tell you about the time he explained the law to them only better. Despite all he says his no.1 priority when looking for a job is not the pay. He will be more concerned about the cylinder layout of the truck.
" lord"said the angel. Touching his sleeve. " rest and work on it tomarrow
The lord said I can’t. I already have a model that can drive 500 miles a day, without incident and can raise a family of 5 without seeing them on 25 cent a mile. Running on black coffee and half eaten crap food from services.
The angel circled the Tang model truck driver very slow and ask " can it think?"
You bet said the lord. Before he gain his HGV licence he shall have done at least one season of silages or as he will call it “the grass”. In the summer months they can be found at most truck shows. The will hunt in packs as there will be a number of them together. The will so learn the art of " rolling 45’s,the bang and on the wire.
The Tang spec can reverse past the beano down the a75. Knows all the drivers on the road. " cards" don’t mind them, he will know where the Vosa/RSA are. He will tell you about the time the Vosa made him coffee. When on a boat he will be found in the VIP lounge playing pool with the cattle boys.
Finally the angel ran her finger over the boots of the tang spec… Brown boots? I told you that you were trying to put too much into this model.
The lord says. The boots are for when he goes outside of this island. He can be picked out by fellow tangs without opening his mouth… Others will know that he is a native of Ireland. You will be amazed how easy it will be to spot a fellow countryman by his boots.
The tang will water his tang gear for fallen comrades, for commitment to that piece of cloth called the uniform
Brilliant!!!
some funny definitions on here for sure was just browsing threads because i wasn’t too sure what a ‘tang’ was, safe to say i now know!
there is this too
tyronetribulations.com/2014/01/ … scania-v8/
Tang Scanny V8’s are also specced with an extra feature not fitted as standard, its the must make the boat button…
Best button there is
The ‘Button’ was a standard fitment, but hidden, on all Duke’s Transport units, be it Volvo, Mercedes, Scania, don’t think the ERF or the couple of Renaults’ they ran shortly before their demise were fitted with the same ‘Button’.
