At last it arrives - i hope you're all well prepared!! We still have the promotion on Sudocrem suncare products in store, but stocks are going fast!

While I'm on the topic of promotions, a few of our stores have a selection of new luxury lines, including cuddly (very!) back packs and pencil cases, some toiletry gifts and bath products. Check them out the next time you pop in!

For those of you jetting off to more tropical places this summer hols, make sure you've sorted your Malaria medication and any other injections you may require. Malaria is still one of the world's biggest killers and can affect anyone - just one bite is all it takes. The best way to avoid malaria is to not get bitten - so make sure you pack some mosquito repellant. Ask in store for all your travel advice, we will be happy to help!

On a more sporty note - congrats to Andy Murray for winning WImbledon! You may have noticed some adverts on TV linking tennis to Voltarol Emulgel. This is a really good topical analgesic and anti-inflammatory rub, perfect for aches and pains, muscle spasms and anywhere else you may need a bit of pain relief!

Ask in store for advice about any aspect of pain relief.

Right, I'm off to slap on some suncream and get out and about.

Enjoy it while it lasts

Keep healthy
