I live just off the main road to one of the post war social housing estates , my local one stop has several two litre and three litre strong ciders really cheap , the people on the estate who are out of work and unable to work , Bi-Polar figures high here , a lot of it possibly drug induced , pour six to nine litres a day of this stuff down their throats . Frosty Jack is less than £1 a litre . Best thing here for liver is bacon and onions , the liver stopped functioning years ago

£600.00 a tablet no wonder the drugs companies are worth billions? jp

I used to deal with a fabricator in London who built cleaning units for dairies , when inspecting a unit one day they had an equivalent unit , but much prettier than mine , it asa to clean the pipe work in the Viagra plant in North kent , Mine was £35000 , theirs , because of the standards involved ten times the price . Every pipe joint polished inside and out , and highly polished , the rug companies spend a fortune on the highest standards known

£600 a tablet is not a lot when That hospital spends £10,000,000 a year on 4,000 heavy drinking patients who drink all the rubbish that Rob mentioned.

. I have just been to Salford Royal Hospital and got the all clear for my Skin Cancer.
tests have shown that there is just a one per cent chance of it returning which is virtually nil. I still have to maintain the medication, which is a bit radical,
so I still cannot drink, for three months when I go back for another appointment. So that was good news.

Do you wear contact lenses, I do not, hence asking what they cost. Remember working at a place not to long ago and overheard a rather gloating conversation that the manufacturing cost was approx 50p a pair

They seemed to get bigger bonus's than the bankers ?

Disposable contact lenses can be bought at £15.20 for a box of 30 , so I would estimate manufacturing costs at less than 10p each but at 50p each the mark up and margins are very tight if the factory gate cost is 50p a pair , a factory to make those would be around £150,000,000 to set up because of the standards required , one reason I am wary of third world medication and aids , the profit is in the volume sales

[Keith at Tregenna]

Actually the factory was about 10 years ago and then 10p for two, was holding back for info from those that will know more. K.
