Santa was buried in Cavan (25)

Dec 22, 2009 8:04 AM CST Santa was buried in Cavan
A Dubliner I've known for a few years just told me that when he was a kid and didn't get what he wanted for Christmas, he was told that Santa died on Christmas eve and his grave is somewhere in Cavan. Has anyone here heard thís one before or is he just taking the piss? My mother's from Cavan and I never heard her say anything about it and I never got the bike I asked for. Anyone heard this before? Just curious. Maybe it's a Dublin thingdunno

He is taught to be buried in Kilkenny at Jerpoint Abbey, he was buried in Myra but his remains were moved to Italy and then Ireland, so they say anyways!

He says 'Get yer coat'
She says excitedly "OOH are we going out?"
He says "sorta, I am, but I'll be turnin off the heatin"

lol...well being from Cavan myself....I do not want to have to pay out money in a law suittongue

Cavan GAA

A Monaghan Footballer (no not a woman!), a meath Footballer and a Cavan Footballer (obviously played in the 50's!) were out fishing on Lough Sheelin one day when Jesus walked across the water and joined them in their boat.

The boys were gob-smacked! "Jaysus" was all they could say in dumb harmony!

The monaghan man said humbly (Yeah right!) "Jesus, me back's been at me ever since I played U16 football against Meath many moons ago. Can you do anything for me? Jesus touched his back and he was relieved of the pain for the first time in 44 years.

The Meath man, sporting a pair of thick black rimmed glases with milk-bottle-end lens, "I haven't seen the stout in front of me since I got a hit in the 1965 under-21 championship match against Dublin. What can you do for me." Jesus gently removed the antique glasses and flung them into the lake and immediately the Meath man could see as far as the Tower of Lloyd in Kells.

Jesus then turned to the Cavan man who leapt to the back of the boat and cried "Don't put a finger on me - I'm on a disability pension!"

But yeah its all in good fun, my friends family hail from Cavan and over the years we have made fun of him.
