Thought Id start this one going because its rather dead on this board at the moment and I suppose all my usual muckers are either at the Stella tennis event watching Dim Tim (lose again) or at Henly Regatta eating cucumber sandwiches (they wish,...NOT).

Anyway please feel free to just talk to yourself blast away and let it go on any company or subject you wish. Just wish Id thought of this one before.

cheers GF.

i don't have a problem donating blood; just too lazy to make the time ..... i suspect that if the blood donation unit was immediately local to me - i.e. walkable - then i might

of course, the fact that it might go to an illegal or a fundamentalist or similar is a great deterrent

Tanker, I admire you for donating blood - have you put a stipulation on it as to which race gets it.??????

hmmmmm your not afraid of needles are you ? :-))

Be honest a lot of men are. lol

yes i have a cup of orange . do not touch coffee or tea
not being racist have seen very few asians and i go all over the place to give
the last time i went the nusres incharge said my pint was going up to manchester
for a young girl my blood is neg only 5% of population have my blood
always good loking young ladys giving blood

looking for a boy friend

my next blood donor date 26th march 6.20pm then down to weatherspoons
next door

Most people I am sure would not say no if they needed blood, but do not give it.

in that case, the table below will surprise you, as it did me .... sorry it's difficult to read, but easily found on wikipedia


The frequency of Rh factor blood types and the RhD neg allele gene differs in various populations.
Population data for the Rh D factor and the RhD neg allele[12]
Population Rh(D) NegRh(D) Pos Rh(D) Neg alleles
Basque people 21–36%[13] 65% approx 60%
other Europeans 16% 84% 40%
African American approx 7% 93% approx 26%
Native Americans approx 1% 99% approx 10%
African descent less 1% over 99% 3%
Asian less 1% over 99% 1%

There used to be an old boy in our local who would go regularly for blood dialysis.
It used to make me laugh when he said he would be put on the machine -issed and return to the pub sober. lol

have just decided to go to pub now have a nie day

I cannot give blood as I have Ischemic Heart Disese. Believe me it has never and will never worry me - get on with life, do not think what could be and have a bloody good laugh when you can. Admire all the people who can and do give blood we never know when we may need some.

No more Michael Winner.
Which of the two will we miss the most?

IS US closed today?

Yes, it is Martin Luther King day.

==============

Judging by the amount of posting on this thread for the last few days, many are just watching the market rather than betting on it.

It seems to me that the majority of the 350 are over bought.

Am I wrong as usual?

Just remembered, gardeners put ox blood on roses.

I wondered where the 120 pints went.

.

I'm watching, finger poised. To do what I have no idea! :o)
