Re: Merry Christmas SAINTSATIONAL !!
At 10:30 on Saturday morning, in the back of an ambulance, it crossed my mind (which was in a wee bit of turmoil at the time ) that it will be another family member who will witness our next flag victory! Did I feel as though I'd missed out? HELL NO! I wouldn't change a darn minute of it! I've learned that at the end of the day, footy is VERY low down on the priorities of my life, and it is simply a wonderful game to be enjoyed (with all it's highs and lows!) THAT is what I will take with me into this coming season Bratty, I have been given another opportunity to spend time with dear pals at "the dome we call home" and to simply say that I do it "For love of friendship, and for love of the game" To all my pals, don't stress about footy, life is too good, and has SO many positive gifts for us to enjoy, rather than to spoil it with negative thoughts! HAPPY CRIMBO FOLKS!

Re: Merry Christmas SAINTSATIONAL !!
Also wishing Jiggster a speedy recovery.
There's no way he's going anywhere soon. He has been in for the long haul and will witness our next premiership first hand somewhere between 2016-19. It is going to happen this decade!

All the best getting better Jigster and I hope the Saints don't give your Dodgy heart too much of a workover in 2014.

Re: Merry Christmas SAINTSATIONAL !!
The GREAT news is that there was NO heart damage, and it in fact was not a heart attack (as far as they can tell from the tests and scans) but I was admitted because of a bad family history of heart attacks. I'm now on medication for Blood pressure, and cholesterol control. I can tell you folks that when I got those pains initially, I was sure that I'd seen my last game!
It is very humbling to see your kind words of encouragement, and I have definitely changed my whole outlook on life. GO SAINTS! (Just hope not to be "with them" TOO soon )

Great to hear Jigster and please get your blood pressure checked regularly. I'm sure they gave you a lecture about cholesterol and diet lol!thejiggingsaint wrote:The GREAT news is that there was NO heart damage, and it in fact was not a heart attack (as far as they can tell from the tests and scans) but I was admitted because of a bad family history of heart attacks.

Re: Merry Christmas SAINTSATIONAL !!
That's the spirit, Jiggster! Good to hear the ticker is in reasonable shape. Could be a blessing in disguise - the fright you needed in order to make sure you look a after yourself a little better. A good diet, regular exercise and good sleeping habits and you'll be there for our next premiership, no problem.

Re: Merry Christmas SAINTSATIONAL !!
Great seeing you at the cricket today Jiggster! Fab chat. My boy only made it to 2pm before he wanted to go. Not bad for his first test cricket experience.
AwayInUSA no longer ... have based myself back in Melbourne for a decade of Saintsational Success (with regular trips back to the USA)

"Jiggling"?! That does NOT make for some good imagery.Dave McNamara wrote:Best wishes Dave. Keep jiggling.
Jigging, on the other hand, would be something more in the Jiggster's wheelhouse.

Jigging is the definitely way to go, and better still with a partner.

So to our Jigging Dave, get well and keep jigging.

Merry Christmas all.
Not had the greatest with the passing of my Nanna only 4 hours ago. She was the reason I was a saints supporter. She lived near the Junction oval many years back.

But jiggling tea bags is cheap and nasty. You ought to be drinking properly brewed loose leaf tea, like a real tea drinker drinks.

Re: Merry Christmas SAINTSATIONAL !!
PakenhamSaint, So sorry to hear your sad news. I know it's no consolation for the loss of your dear Nanna, but these few words may bring some comfort: "death ends a life, but it cannot end a relationship, as this will endure in the hearts and memories of those who survive" May the happy memories of a loving Nanna remain in your heart and may these keep the relationship strong.
