Diabetics at Lemans

Don't worry about the insulin it will keep for some time and does not need refridgeration, although it is best to keep it somewhere out of the intense heat.
I have been insulin dependent for 17 years and camped at the track every year, a small cool bag is all you need.
One year I lost my insulin but in France, unlike the UK, you can go to a chemist and buy it. There is a chemist on the road from the Track to the large Carrefore, it is on the left I think, I got two types of disposable pens and needles it cost about £40.
Tell your friend that it is best to get his insulin in prefilled disposable pens in the UK before he goes and then dispose of them safely while he is there.
Hope you all enjoy 2006, visit once, hooked for life.
