Nice one well done Steve.
Did you get a brew and a biscuit?

i just had a cup of juice, lmao the thing i didn't expect was giving bloody in front of 60 odd people

that would be embarrassing passing out in front of a crowd, well done you for donating, i cant at the minute cant give blood within 6 months of having a tattoo done and my tattoo is still a work in progress, had some colour done yesterday, took the pain of the leg for bit small bonus

i hate needles i have to look away for some reason i dont mind seeing them going in other people but when it me it make me feel sick i'm not bothered about the stinging bit because it only last for a sec or two....

How long did it take them to take the blood?

about 8/10 mins i think, it didn't take that long after the first nurse prick my finger

Wow thats quicker than it takes to drain blood in my local during closing time.
Thats made me feel better. Im gonna do that new year. I promise

Well done, Steve!

I'll be doing that next time they come round this way.

it's all the waiting around but when the take the blood it go pretty quick

good gal, i'm going do it all the time now they said next time i go i will get a official donator key ring

I couldn't go last time as I'd just had one ear pieced! (it had closed up cause I hadn't put an earing in it for a while).

my nurse said something about if you donate 10 times and you get something i couldn't really understand her, do you knoie anything about that caryll?

I think each area does something different, but I'm not sure!

did you go light headed caryll when u did it before? i was fine till i went shopping i felt it then i had to sit down

Yes! Must've taken all of the blood from my gead!

Weird feeling!

Hats off to you mate.
I wish i could donate...
