Give Blood in Bromley

I'm a rare blood type and always feel the urge to donate blood whenever I see the adverts - however, because I had a kidney removed, I'm not allowed :(

So, because I can't, I'm challenging all my readers to go and "do something amazing" and donate some of your blood!

Has anyone ever done this? I can remember going with my dad when I was little and watching him give blood (and I always got a biscuit too).

There are plenty of up and coming dates at the Central Library in Bromley for you to pop along and save someone's life (and get a free biscuit too!)

NCT Nearly New Sale 25th September 2010, Bromley

I'm so sorry, I've neglected my little blog - I would like to say there was a good reason, but there isn't. My only excuse is that I have been too busy!

So what's happening in Bromley for little ones this weekend...

Look out for the lovely NCT girls having a nearly new sale at the United Reform Church hall on Widmore - this is the one at the bus stop behind Boots, the Glades.

Starting at 11.15am on Saturday 25th September and offering all sorts of "nearly new" bargains. The sale offers items from clothes, toys, books equipment and more suitable from pregnancy to 5 years. Entry costs 50p and the sale runs for just 1 hour!
