Hello everyone

I’m currently away from home (in selsey for goodwood festival of speed) and I’ve just arrived and realised I packed my liraglitude but not my needles for it (never forgotten them before)

Feel like a right idiot but does anyone know if I can go to a pharmacy and buy some novofine needles?

Thanks in advance
 
I believe you should be able to buy them ... or if maybe get your surgery to fax a prescription to a pharmacy in Selsey.

As an aside, I have fond memories of Selsey - my family come from Chichester and my gran spent her last years in Selsey. I remember walking along the beach as a teenager and eating tea in Patrick Moore's local.

You should be able to buy them (or similar) from a chemist, (if you live in the UK fill in the form to get them VAT free) or you might be able to get an emergency prescription from a walk in centre. I hope you have a fab time in Goodwood.
 
Off topic, but have a fantastic time at FOS. I've been three times, and it was amazing every single time. Hope the weather stays fine for you. Do you have tickets just for Thursday, or for the whole weekend?
 
Thanks for all your help I found a late opening pharmacy that sold me a box.... £24 lighter and missed the second half of the semi final (not such a shame in the end) but saved me a lot of hassle!

Selsey is lovely although I must admit to not exploring too much as I’m always here for the goodwood festival of speed!

I’m here all weekend, last year was my first and it’s just too good to miss! I’m currently sat in the bmw owners lounge enjoying free coffee! Lovely jubbly!!
