A really packed and perfect day. Everything fitted together really well.
I got up just after the boys went to school by taxi and left the house an hour later just after 9am to get a bus sometime before 10. At the bus stop, something happened which put me in a positive mood for the rest of the day.
I started chatting with a woman who like me was waiting for the bus which was a couple of minutes late. She was waiting for her mother and they were heading to Leeds. I told her that I was heading to Seacroft to donate platelets. She said that I was really lovely to do that, as she had received platelets on several occasions as she had leukaemia. She thanked me for what I was doing. I nearly cried.
I read some NewScientist on the bus and before long was at Seacroft, a few minutes early. The donation went normally, 3 units in just over an hour.
Can't remember if the evening held any highlights.
