Same to you and all Saints fans and their families. Their will be plenty who have lost someone this year from Covid, adding to the general garbage year. Fingers crossed next year is better, it can't be much worse TBH. 7 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cookie Monster 1,408 Report post Posted December 25, 2020 Well done Cookster, top man!Thanks, but it was our clubs Charity Foundation staff along with the Salvation Army that did all the hard work in the coordination and preparation of the food, hampers and presents that were the stars. Also a big congrats to the Northbank buds, seen the generosity they gave during the week. Loads of children who may not have got one this year will be recieving a present. We may have moved, but 'love' will always be associated with our club. 🤍 5 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

faraway saint 31,018 Report post Posted December 25, 2020 Well, what a day, the limited family we choose to have had a great time but it wasn't the same, or as good, as usual. Small things like this are a sacrifice, or known as a pain in the arse, but that's what some of us do. If there's a massive rise in cases, and the obvious nest stage, well, fecking hell mend them, as my mother used to say. A lot of talk today was about having family holidays next year as we have had nothing this year. Got to look forward. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
oaksoft 13,612 Report post Posted December 26, 2020 Had a fantastic day. Nice and relaxing with plenty of cake, tea and laughter. Don't feel the need to comment on or judge other people for how they chose to spend the day or how many others they chose to spend it with. Live and let live. And when death comes, so be it. We all have to die of something. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have never been one of those people who want to desperately cling onto life until the bitter end. In fact, I think we should have euthanasia freely available for anyone who wants it and for any reason whatsoever. I am always confused by the fear we have in society over death.

The heartache it leaves for your close family is unimaginable. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
