quick and painless

Popped into the blood donor centre on Lauriston Place on the way home today. Out twenty-five minutes later. I remember to ask if they wanted my platelets as well but my count was insufficiently high (though they insisted it was perfectly high enough for me) to be eligible. Luckily my haemoglobin count was exceptionally high so at least if I'll not get hypoxic immediately as my slow-clotting blood leaks out. Anyway, go and give some blood if you're able. The donor centre is open lateish Tuesday-Thursday.
Trundled down to a more remoteshop a bit later seeing as the nearbyshops doesn't stock my preferred species of apple. I would have posted this swooshing-car had Treegonk not got in first or maybe the mysterious glistening wall of Cameron Toll roundabout if I'd caught it with a bit more green traffic light reflection. Popped back into the graveyard but didn't emerge with anything useful except ideas and a mental note to take a torch next time to help with focussing in low light levels. Anyway, there'll be plenty of time for graveyard-at-night and swooshy-car shots over the next few months.
