"the choices then were gas or a jag!"

Hi Skoosh... I know about gas, but would you explain "jag" please.

I think it will have to be an extraction in the end, it has been giving me  (and the professionals, ) intermittent trouble for 2 years now. :'(

 Cocaine! what you might term a "Jab!"  ;D     I always took the gas & the instruments were out of sight!
 Partick Thistle are known as the "Jags!" as thistles are indeed jaggy!

Skoosh.

Perfect. Thank you Skoosh.

Yes, south of the border (indeed south of the Watford Gap,) I would say "jab".
A "jag" being a posh car!
