    Gary, you can't donate within X amount of time of being inked but you'll need to check their rules for the exact time frame. As I have beautifully flawless and pristine flesh I've never paid that much attention to the ruling.

    Villan, yes that's the one I've got the Bronze one. They issued it to replace my 'ration book' but then only ever actually used it the once and I've never had a new one sent either for my Silver or last nights Gold. Now the rules have changed so you can donate 3 times a year I suspect there will be a platinum award before long if not already.

    God, If I manage another 8 years I'll be expecting some back.

    Just looked it up Gary and it says 4 months on their website.

    Also, if anyone in your family has had Jacobs Crackers disease you cant' give.

    Dunno who he is, probably a friend of Rich Tea.

    Today really is not a good day to have to make final product development decisions that have to be closed and emailed back to Germany this afternoon. A major Fcuk up is is not just probable but inevitable.

    Just trying to put a very puffy brave face on. Feels like all major internal organs are on the point of collapse and my head is going to implode if I move it any faster than slow motion. Today is not a good day to be alive and the thought “never drinking again” keeps running through my alcohol sodden brain.

    Missed some text,if I cant even get a simple post right the above cock up is a racing certainty

    And today is the kind of day where alcoholic poisoning has a tendency to make you ramble on and on often repeating yourself in the process.

    Apparently.

    just seen there is a donation day near me on the 8th feb. Time to get back into it me thinks.

    Thanks for brining this up. It has kicked my arse into gear to get started donating again.

    From inside the fog of my smugness I forgot something equally important. Jeanette has been selected as a potential platelet donor. This means that should she prove a match for some poor soul requiring healthy platelets she will be matched up with just that one patient as a donor in order to stave off rejection.

    The thought of contributing to the treatment of a particular patient in this way is such a feel good idea, I'm feeling quite envious of her.

    Something like that Ken. Fantastic if Jeanette can donate platelets and make such a difference for someone, respect to you both.

    Cheers mate.

    Cheers everyone for your comments.

    It's a little thing in the scheme of things I'm not aware of much else I do that's a major contribution to society in general, especially compared with some of the stuff Benn, Milky, Soss, Exfire and the other serve/protectors go through on a daily basis, but I'll take the self satisfaction where I can take it, and you never know it could just make the difference to some poor bastard.

    Right. That enough being noble. Back to being a complete shit.
