Blood

Now your just bragging  Oh has given 48 times that count and 1 that didn't (in Italy while on holiday) they gave him a packet of Spagetti as thanks for the donation

If we're counting donations that don't count  ..... I gave a pint in Mombassa to help a young girl suffering from Sickle Cell Anemia .... It was done above board under Royal Navy conditions.  I got a can of beer.

... OH says a can of beer would have gone down nicely with the spagetti I forgot about the times he donated while serving in Germany they got paid for each donations in those days, once we were on our way to the Rhine Army summer show when there was an annoucement on the BFBS radio that there had been a bad accident and could all donors in the area please go and give blood, so we had a wee diversion to the show.

Your OH half trumps me with that then ...... 

Well done everyone who donates! 

I remember the days when after donating you got some guiness!

I have passed the 50 mark no guiness these days!

I've been trying to give my arm full of A rhesus negative for ages now, but I can't coincide my shifts with when the Blood Group are in session locally  I've given 50+ 'pints' so far

Write your comments here...Well done you. Many years ago there was a car accident near to us and in the family of four three were A+ and my married neighbours were both A+ and both of them were picked up from their place of work by the Police to donate as there was a shortage and they needed it for the family..so well done you !SG2

Funnily enough although sometimes a shortage of the more rare type - its the O Positive they need a lot of as I believe it is safe to use on anyone.  So even if you have "common blood" it is still in great demand!
