Hang on a minute.

Is it true that T2's get prescriptions free?

If so, how?

What criteria apply?

My GP gave me a prescription for 100 x 75mmg soluble aspirin tabs. I am not daft. I get them for 88p over the counter, not £7.20 on prescription.

The rest of my stuff I pay for. No-one hinted the 'free' word.

Information please!

Only three more years to go before I get a pension anyway. I'd prefer to move to Devon. Can I get that declared a part of Wales, or is it best to settle west of the Tamar and wait for Cornish liberation?

Sue, only if I can get at least six months' worth of drugs in one go.
And couple it with a week's walking in the hills.
Nice! ( That was a pun by the way.) :lol:

Humph.

I'll have to do something about that before I move south then.

Pity I won't get paid for it - the last hopeless case got a golden farewell of - I beleive - getting on for half a million squid.

Bloody NHS. :evil:


I beg pardon of all gentlefolk for the gratuitious obscenity.
