Just the feel of the curtains on the newer ones makes my skin crawl…got the same texture as the vertical blinds at home…chuffing horrible!!So that’s why the Tangs buy frilly ones and have them half way across the side windows, they like feeling them!
Go on then enlighten me, what’s a Tang ?
A tang is a Northern Ireland driver, with a topline v8 and a cherau fridge, going down the 75 with a Ben Sherman shirt on, open to the naval, blue jeans, a Scania jacket and gold chain, peeping out from behind the frilly curtains and waving at you with a kind of hand movement that you would use to flick ■■■■ off you fingers.

Nice!!
That kind of Scania was instrumental in the birth of… The Tang…
Absolutely! I’d go so far as to call them the forceps
i’ve been asked a few times latey what a tang is. well i will do my best to tell ya’s
word : tang
define:
Male aged 18-28, living in north area, more psychically someone who drinks in cold beer. These young men can be noticed by a Scania jacket (use to be a McElveney jacket only but in more recent years they have diversified and the jackets will have a company website on back with a Scania badge on the front right breast), a Ben shearman shirt, a Brown belt, denim jeans and a pair of super Hampton boots.
Before they gain there HGV licences they shall have done at least one season of Silages harvesting (or as they will say “the grass”). In my day there first car would have been a 306 sporting a CB Ariel (think it a golf they use now).
In the summer months they can be found at most major truck shows, they seem to hunt in packs as there is normally a number of them together, listening to Garth brooks and tri axel music. Alought there may be 7-8 of their lorries in a small area they like to congregate in on single cab sometime up to 12 of them at atime. (Bewared and be careful whilst passing them as one wrong move could lead to copious amounts of unprovoked verbal slaging to any passer by, it’s the tang equivalent to the travellers “grabbing”).
There truck, will by a V8 Scania Topline. It will have a top bar with 6 spot light, 4 spots in the visor, tassel curtains and a side pipe. A true tang will only do English fridge work and do 5 trips every two weeks. His fridge of choice will be a twin vap stepframe Gray and Adams or as the tang would say “a Gerry Adams frigo”
