Woman crosses London carrying mystery container and acting strangely...

So yesterday I transported my last sample of donor sperm from my old clinic to my new clinic. I decided against using a courier company because it was expensive and there were lots of reports of unreliability online. I was mildly terrified that I might be able to do something wrong that could mess it all up, but the clinics reassured me it was straight forward and people do it all the time. I only had to keep the container upright, not tilt it or drop it. So off I went on the tube, acting like a protective mother penguin nestling the container between my feet, placing it down really carefully, staying away from crowds and trying to predict anyone knocking into me! I felt like a total nut ball, it was both tense and funny. Thought I would share it with you all because it's nice to share the funny moments of this nuts journey! All went fine and the container was received at the other end by a cheerful embryologist who was way less careful with it than I was!

Ha! That is funny! Reminded me of my husband having to deliver his sample when we were at the testing stage, it was on the floor of the hospital where you also give "stool samples" and in the lift he could tell the other people were like "have you got a bag of sperm or poop in there...?" !!

Haha amazing! :) Good news it got there safe and sound! Xxx

Ha ha. Well done xx
