This letter......

[B'Briggs Hibee]

..... that the priest or whatever wrote about us meeting the **** in the final of 2012 and winning. Is it true or has it just grown arms and legs cause i like it and i am clinging onto it ?

Loving it!!

I just hope the holy father had the ability to foresee the law changes, as Jamie MacDonald will gift us a goal by picking up a passback (Hibs score from resultant free kick) and then he'll not get near any of our penalties in a 4-2 shootout win following a draw AET.

Fact.

I got this letter today and presume this the letter although there may be others doing the rounds.


My Dad, Tony Demarco, had two younger siblings - Aunt Marietta, who raised
me, from age 4, alongside her own boys (my quasi brothers); and Uncle Nods,
who went to train for the priesthood, aged 28 - but who sadly died from
heart disease when only 37. No-one remembers why he was called Nods. Fr
Alberto Demarco SJ (he was ordained early) was not your typical Jesuit -
neither intellectual nor remote; his hallmarks were ready humour (a gifted
mimic) - an infectious grin and simple goodness of heart (blessed are the
peacemakers).
One of my 'quasi' brothers (above) lives mostly in Spain now and recently
sent me this email: 'Uncle Nods sent me a letter for my tenth birthday
which I came across sorting through my mother's stuff. He actually sent it
on 5/5/55, to celebrate that unusual date; it was a special birthday
letter, full of wee drawings and jokes and ended like this: "I will end now
by wishing you all joy and happiness - and the chance to see Hibs win the
Cup some year. Your father and uncles have got too old to live till that
day - which is, I believe, due to happen in 2012. Love, Uncle Nods'"
Now, I don't think for one minute that this strange prediction was a flash
of spiritual clarity or mystical insight - he was simply poking fun.
But�wow!! What a coincidence. At Hampden on the 19th - Uncle Nods will be
there with us; and win or lose, I'll imagine his big grin.

My Birthday is the 5/5. Not that strange or coincidental you might think but fir some strange reason I am rather calm and collected about Saturday. Again you might think nothing of that. I would like to point out I usually can't sleep for a day or so before an u19 derby. It might be different come Friday but now? Meh!!!!!!
