I saw a pint of my own blood...
...in a bag next to me in the Donor van - If you can, give blood, sounds like some of you have needed it in the past. (Sorry for sermonising, it's all a bit dear to my heart)

Me too. I told the hospital that I had the body of a 20 year old.
They said "We know. Give it back."

I think I'm on my 8th or 9th donation
of A-, donation has two great advantages.

1) Smug feeling for rest of the day

2) Cheapest night out you'll ever have

I am working up to it
I have already mentioned my little "thing" about getting blood taken.... i.e. passing ot cold and such.

It's so badly needed though that it's a piss poor excuse for not doing so. So I will. I p....p.....promise.

I have given blood once and would love to keep doing it.
But the blood service are a complete bunch of inept cunts, and don't seem to care whether anyone gives them blood or not. If they had to do this as a business they would go under in a week.

I now live in Ireland, where they won't take blood from anyone who lived in the UK during the 90s.

MOOOO!

A+
Best mark you can get. =p

But that's all that came of me giving blood. It hurt so they had to stop it and it was going so slowly that they got worried. My blood was used for testing and nothing else and I didn't even fill the bag...
