Do your own then.

Dont forget to pay for however many years of medical training that’s needed, plus renting/buying a premises, then  all the gear. Etc etc

Its like this at the vets - “£40 just to be told to change his food”. 
 

Vet school costs £50k

I know all that but being ripped off is subjective and like trips to the vet I feel I'm being ripped off. How much medical training do you need to stick a cotton wool bud up someones snot box ?

I watched a Yorkshire vet shove his arm up a sheep's womb last night. Put a rope round a lamb's head and describing his actions as he went over each ear etc. Then yanked it out and saved its life.

Takes some training and skill; if loads could do it, it would be cheaper.

It is expensive though, wouldn't imagine there are too many poor vets.

You get ripped off when people realise they've got you by the short un curlys ie poorly pets, and a need to get somewhere in my case to the sunshine.

Not sure that will get me on a plane but thanks for the heads up. 

Anyway... Cheapest PCR tests for a family of 4... Where is best? 

Dunno if they’re the cheapest, but Boots are selling at-home kits for £65 pp, In store testing is £99pp.

Depends on whether you've got flights booked already or not and who you're flying with.
