We have had these ever since we moved in, but husband checks them more regularly now, to make sure that we have things like plasters, Neosporin, Paracetamol, Loperamide, sugar free Rennies, box of individual eye drops, Piriteze, Chloraseptic throat spray, sugar free Strepsils, hand sanitiser, antiseptic cream, Inadine and surgical tape. It also contains tweezers, thermometer, blood pressure monitor, and a leaflet from GP surgery plus walk-in centre. It seems like we always get cold, dodgy stomach etc when shops are shut.On my left wrist I have a Medic Alert steel bracelet as I'm allergic to penicillin.I have a pill organiser in the kitchen and husband puts my morning Metformin in a cut glass Victorian duck eggcup on my bedside table. I have no idea why he did this.Personally, I find the freebie meter 'purse' too small and fiddly, so I kept my meter, strips and lancets in a clear plastic zipped bag with ' Respect Your Selfie' by some designer or other, from last year Selfridges Beauty Box. That is, until I pricked my thumb and got an artery. I bled all over the fabric zip and ruined it.So I'm on the look out for good ideas !</blockquote>
