Expiry dates
« on: November 17, 2011, 07:55:59 PM »
As I spend more than a considerable time at work and a fair bit of time driving at work and for "pleasure" I tend to keep a few medical lotions and potions in the cars passenger door pocket, as wherever I am, the car is close by, so they are readily available

Yesterday morning I was feeling rough so I went across to Tescos and got some Lemsip All-in-one capsules. When I come to put them in the passenger door pocket this morning, I noticed I already had some Lemsips in there - expiry date August 2008  eeek: So I thought I'll check the other bits while I'm there like
Eye drops for itchy eyes - expiry date February 2005   eeek:  eeek:
Nasal decongestant spray - expiry date September 2002  eeek:  eeek:  eeek:

I wouldn't mind, but I reckon I've gone through four cars in that time, I must have transferred them each time, and they must have escaped the "I no longer need that" exercise  noooo:

And... and why don't they put expiry dates on self-seal envelopes that lose their sticky? Eh?
Anyway, that's another story...  ::)

Perhaps we should have a National Expiry Date Day  razz:. A day to clear out all those putrid jars of chutney, time lapsed medicaments, petrified capers, hairy yoghurt and the like.

Put the expiry date for your new lemsip into the works calendar.  ;D

Doesn't this show that you have been in prime physical condition for the past 10 years at least  ;)
