Keep it up @wiggydiggy, I have just clocked up donation 25 after about 6 years and 4 times per year. My actual completed donations are about 22 as I got turned away due to low iron twice and once because I was in contact with an infectious child (hand foot and mouth). Couldn’t avoid the latter as it was my own child 🤣 who got it from nursery.

I will. Couple nice touches after donation was I got a text telling me where my blood went, and then today a letter thanking me.

dropped off a pint last night. Slight odd coincidence I donate near to home rather than usual near to work place, as they had early evening slot and I was was bang on the 12 weeks from previous donation. poor chap was trying to do sums in his head and thinking I hadn't had the correct gap. he then went to double check and sheepishly came back and said it was fine. I had pointed out that their own website had suggested that date so it must be fine
