cheers for the replies folks!
I think they sell it on the plane so I'll hopefully get it then. I don't want to risk the post so soon to our holiday!
Cheers

Hi.
They had it in the Boots duty free shop in Newcastle airport last year, so if there is a one at your airport, try there.

Well I couldn't find any in our Bodycare shop today, not been able to get it anywhere since I started looking for it before we went to Gran Canaria last month

Not in Boots, Superdrug, local chemists... I'll keep looking, I've got until August to track it down

Hi Cyberspacekadette :wave

I posted the manufacturer's contact details earlier on in the thread, I'm sure they'll be able to tell you if any retailers near you stock it if you ring them :wink:

last year when we were at Turkey I had an ear infection, given antibiotics orally and glycerin to put a couple of drops in the ear.

This year I am well prepared, purchased swim ear from Boots today, cost £4.99. Alot cheaper than it cost me last year for all my potions.

Seems very popular, had last one at our Boots, Superdrugs where we reside had never heard of it.

Kind regards

Ordered my swimear from http://www.effectivecare.com and it's been delivered this am: £4.99 for 1 or 2 for £8 post and packing free.

I've also had some Palmers cocoa butter theraputic hand cream for my 15yr old son who suffers with excema on his hands, it's a compact tube, ideal for packing in the suitcase and it's SPF8 and fragrance free - hope he likes it :lol:

In addition to this, I found warmed (not hot!) olive oil very effective at relieving ear pain after swimming. If you just get a small bottle and heat it in a mug of warm water like you would a baby bottle and then put a little in each ear. It is very soothing.
