Never not ever.

Me and needles do not get along. Same with cling film.

September - I was going to give again in a couple of weeks time, but it's only 2 days before the Lakeside 12k that I'm doing. So I think I'm going to have to postpone it.

I gave blood last year. I can't again until June 'cause I got a new tattoo.

I have a keyring too.

No, me neither, never done it, think it's the needle thing, had a bad blood test when I was a kid, got an air bubble in my arm, wasn't pleasant, put me off blood tests/ needles etc.

I've given 22 times and want to get up to 25 so that I get my bronze pin. Actually I've been 25 or 26 times but keep getting rejected as my iron count is too low. I haven't been for a year because I got my tummy button pierced and you have to wait for a year after that and that was just over a year ago now but I was in America last month and you can't go within 28 days of having visited the USA so I'm still waiting for the opportunity to go.

How the hell did you get your tongue pierced?
