I see the rules have been relaxed a bit, we are allowed to carry 100ml bottles of solutions, however you can't buy 100ml bottles of saline!
Doh!

I think Boots do small bottles of Saline that are in the region of 100 mls. It is their own branded stuff.

Not anymore I've been looking for ages now, that used to be 120 mls

Squeeze 20mls out and you'll be OK :twisted:

Good thinking if you could still get that size! Or with the 360 mls squeeze out 240 mls?!!

My small bottle of saline holds 120mls but is the same size shape wise as my small bottle of quattro which holds 100mls.

Are the security people going to take out every bottle and check or just look at the items in the plastic bag they have to be carried in?

I think I may still get Ken to write me a covering letter.

Lesley where do you get your 120 ml bottles of saline from, what brand is it?

Louise,

The 120ml bottle is called SAUFLON. It is preservative free. I get it from my local optician here in Southam. The addres on the bottle is:

Sauflon Pharmacuticals Ltd,

Hope that helps.
