O pos is the commonest, in the UK at least, so that makes you very useful. It's not the "universal" one , I think that's AB, but that's rather rare. Still your blood can be used on most people coming in, which is good news.PS: I am O+ but don't know if that is significant.
At one time everything official was buff-coloured, or so it seemedWere the old-style NHS cards colour-coded depending on blood type, or is that just my memory playing tricks? I don’t know what my blood group is, but I remember I had a buff-coloured card!
Only had one occasion where I had a noticeable bruise, I think the needle went through the vein. I'll have a look and see if they are pulling pints in my area.
Hooray - my pint has been accepted! I wasn’t ever in doubt, all that nurturing of my bloodstream with Rochefort and Rhône was bound to pay dividends. And although some people might say O+ is boringly common, I like to think of it more as my blood showing solidarity with the masses.I managed to bring my first-ever donation forward to this afternoon, to avoid any risk of having to cancel due to quarantine following a trip to France next month. So take a bow, @George J, that’s at least one pint the NHS has that is completely down to you posting. And there should be more if it passes muster (and it obviously pretty much goes without saying that it will, given the Marchbanks bloodline.)
