clairevmc Jan 2009 11:21am, 15 Jan 2009 230 posts	0 clairevmc I've given 22 times and want to get up to 25 so that I get my bronze pin. Actually I've been 25 or 26 times but keep getting rejected as my iron count is too low. I haven't been for a year because I got my tummy button pierced and you have to wait for a year after that and that was just over a year ago now but I was in America last month and you can't go within 28 days of having visited the USA so I'm still waiting for the opportunity to go.
