Well, as promised, I charted all the blood types. Keep in mind this is totally unscientific. I've shown the type frequency vs. the worldwide frequency. I do notice there is a lot of Type AB. (The worldwide frequency of AB neg is shown as 1%, it is really closer to 1/2 %.) The percentages ignore the types without an Rh factor.

Of the people who reported red hair, two are B pos and five are O pos.

If anyone would like a copy of the Excel spreadsheet, let me know, and I will send it off-list. Sometimes the information in an email doesn't transmit in nice neat columns.

Further to Margaret Stokes, particularly useful was http://freespace.virgin.net/angela.powell/rhesusfactor.htm in all excellent information

From the British National Blood service. There was no breakdown for Scotland.

Percentage of British population [see table]

I wonder if anyone knows the percentages in America, Australia New Zealand etc?
