Gooner Aug 2020 6:50pm, 4 Aug 2020 17,511 posts	0 Gooner I keep getting texts and emails since I cancelled my appointment despite me telling them the reason why. At least I shouldn't forget to re-book when I can.

Little Nemo Aug 2020 7:31pm, 4 Aug 2020 10,899 posts	0 Little Nemo Here are the stats for those of you that like that sort of thing * Blood didn't sink again but my haemoglobin was 139 so I was well over the limit * Donation took 5:59 which I don't think is a PB * Orange squash and Lotus Biscoff biscuits for afters - very nice! Feel rougher then normal post-donation, think it's been too long a gap and I need to acclimatise again.
