Hello,
I am a type 2 Diabetic and am currently taking Metformin and Gliclazide and the really important one
Victoza, This last has been a boon to me.Alos take Orlistat which stangely enough helps my daibetes control enormousely
Problem: We, my wife and I are planning to holiday for a month in Spain this year, touring by car.
Victoza needs to be kept in the fridge. This I need a very small fridge that will run off my car electrics in the boot and also one that I can plug into a house/hotel supply when we are stopping somewhere.
Now I have been told that there is a very small fridge that can be purchased with these aminities.
I.E dual power supply usage.
But what are they called and moreover where can I get them from???
All helpful replies most welcome.
Regards to all

Here is a link to a company that sells electric cool-bags. It sounds suitable, but I don't know whether the optional mains voltage is UK 230v or euro 115v. However, it does run on the 12v car system and I'm sure it would keep cool enough if kept indoors overnight and plugged into the car during the day.

Alternatively, here is a mini fridge from Homebase, big enough for 6 cans of drink. It is 12v and 240v so again, it would be fine in the car but not indoors in the rest of Europe:

Hope that is a help.
