Free NHS Prescriptions

I celebrated my 60th birthday three years ago by getting a going to the local pharmacy. Not that I had chosen this as my special place but I needed medication.

It was a delight to be told that I no longer had to fork out cash for the said item. What a joy to look at my newly acquired 60 badge still perched on my lapel and realise that I had Come of Age. Woopee!!

I needed some more three years later and was delighted to get free medication again. It was also good to think that I don't need to take advantage of this offer very often.
