taps aff 

Glaswegian (Scottish). Literally "tops off." Originally an expression for hot weather, hot enough to take one's shirt off. A phenomenon rarely seen in Glasgow. Now an expression describing good times being had. Often issued as an instruction.

The lesser-used opposite would be "taps oan."

You think me an old fogeyand an old tory, his thoughtful voice said. I saw three generations since O’Connel’s time. I remember the famine. Do you know that the orange lodges agitated for repeal of the union twenty years before O’Connel did or before the prelates of your communion denounced him as a demagogue? You fenians forget some things. (James Joyce, Ulysses. Penguin Books,1992. p. 38)
