Blood stocks critically low nationwide

[bruce]

Hi all

First post here, I've been on a couple of rides a few weeks back, CAD introduced me *waits for obligatory CAD's Mum joke..*

Just read that blood supplies are really low round the whole country. On aus.motorcycles a guy suggested a ride where everyone donates blood.. but I'm not sure that losing a pint then going for a ride is such a good idea. Normally they share between the states but they can't even do that now.

More official info here: http://www.arcbs.redcross.org.au

Anyway, go and donate some blood! We've probably got a higher chance of needing it than most. Besides they give you free snacks.

Good idea though, do they have a sperm donations? I'm good at that

Needles smeedles. Go and get ur tounge pierced that is one big f#*ker of a needle. and worst is that even if you dont want to look at it curiosity gets the better of you and it's usuall y too late by then. But I'm one of the lucky ones needles dont fase me that much.
