Make sure you read up all the condions before you go down. We were looking for things we could do to help out and giving blood was one of them. But the bride and I have been sick in the last week so we are out for a little longer yet.

Finally got a reply from the Red Cross it's been a while I know, and the fires are out and injured have been tended too, but I see it a very worthy cause so my first donation is on Wednesday

I've done almost 70 donations so far and it really is quite a simple proceedure about 45 minutes of your time.

Only problem last time my donation went directly to the RCH (very low on Blue blood i suppose) and I got in trouble because when the 5y/o woke up all she wanted was a Shiraz with her dinner:D:D

The donating/bleeding part only takes 7 minutes or so
