I just got back from giving blood.. me, a gay man! First time in 30 years..the last time was when I was 16 in Australia and remember vividly the question about "have you had sex with men" and thinking, wow is that an option? #giveblood #NHS

Disappointingly my #PlateletDonation days have come to an end. I have been telephoned by #NHSBloodAndTransplant to tell me that my #platelet count is too low. My count normally averages 4.8, but the donation on Thursday was only 2.0, the third in a row of counts, so that is it. I will still be able to give whole blood, and my A Rh- is usually in demand, so that's something.

Mail call! The High Cost of Dying and Other Stories by #ReedCrandall, hardcover. Crandall's stuff looks great in black and white! Another book I bought with points for giving blood.

#MailCall! I don't usually like to buy from Amazon but I got a gift card for donating blood so why not order some comics!?!
