Free Tea & Biscuits

fish · Post by **fish** » Wed Aug 01, 2007 11:49 am

Neighbour asked if any of you community spirited guys and girls could help out here. A lot of you probably do already.
As much tea and choccie biscuits as you can eat, good parking etc.
They're very biker friendly.

Cheers

The coffee and chocy biscuit was good last night at ARI

There was a nice black R1 sitting at the entrance door, it belongs to a member of staff apparently, anyone on here

A very worthy cause

Used to donate every three months or so. After all you never know when you might need a few pints of the red stuff

Exactly

They get a good response when they put out a desperate plea in the P & J or on North Tonight, but not enough folk are going for follow up donations.

Thanks

Always see these adverts and appeals.

Never do nothing about it though, as I totally detest hospitals, doctors and nurses.

I suppose i should, cant live in fear of the nasty nurse :turnevil with the vampire teeth...

sighhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh....

Edit.... Read the leaflet and Signed Up

Have signed up, is something I always mean to do but just never get round to... Done it now.

Thanks folks that means a lot to them, and hey it's a bit of a free health check.
Unfortunately if you were in the States, you wouldn't just get free tea and biscuits, you'd also get paid for it.
Though the way round this is to book your follow up appointment, for during work hours, and you still get paid for it.

I started giving blood a couple of years ago but haven't been able to go back since as I had an operation last year and then got a couple of tattoo's this year so keep getting sent away !

Next June will be the next time I can manage... I hope
