Tonight I tried to give blood. Sadly my blood was too slow so it had to be abandoned, which is a real shame. It's happened before and hasn't stopped be going back, so I'll try again in 3 months time!

For anyone who hasn't done it before, it really doesn't hurt and that's coming from someone who is really squeamish with a low pain threshold! I encourage everyone who can donate to give it a try. In just 10 minutes you could save a life.
