HappyG(rrr) 4 Jan 1:45pm, 4 Jan 2025 51,704 posts	0 HappyG(rrr) Don't get the message in ScotBlood either. Different and separate systems as I understand it. I would like more info as it seems motivating and interesting. Also a text just saying - this was tour Nth donation, Xth at this location. Etc. You could have stats about time of day, day of week and if they could record Hb level, duration of flow etc even better. I will need to lookup if that was 54 or 55th! G

Velociraptor 4 Jan 2:40pm, 4 Jan 2025 73,030 posts	0 Velociraptor Nobody contacted me from Blood UK to discuss my request to be unbanned, but I've just checked online and the ban has disappeared. I've booked an appointment for Monday afternoon. It's a bit close to my first few races of the year, but I should be over it before my target events.
