Here is my post for Share Your World, hosted by Di.

Have you ever attended a First Aid Course?
I went to one years ago for work so I could be one of the nominated first aiders. Just the very basic course.

Apart from grazed knees and applying a band aid, have you ever applied First Aid?
No. No grazed knees, either.

Are you squeamish about the sight of blood?
No. In fact I had a blood test on Monday and I watched the needle go in and the blood spurt into the little plastic receptacles.

How far away is the nearest hospital?
The main big hospital for my county is about 12 miles maybe but via a lot of speed-limited areas so maybe 30 minutes outside of rush hour, 45 at busy times. An ambulance would get there a lot faster, though!

There’s a little post-op recuperation-type hospital in Newquay about the same distance, and a hospital with a minor injuries unit about the same distance as well.
