Morning 

Wasn’t actually me going back to U.K. I’m happy to say so still in Spain enjoying the warmer weather😎

Nice of you to say though and yes my friend arranged the day 2 & 8 tests required to travel at a cost of £210!!! Why it needs to be that expensive I don’t know but.....

Daylight b****y robbery, I know, but hey ho. I do it again in a heartbeat if I were able to travel back to Spain. Enjoy the sun. I’ve got the heating on 🥶🤪🥂

Hey Carole

Glad you’re back safe and sound. You’ll be on with your day 2 and 8 tests now I’ll guess 🤞

Are you feeling the cold? I don’t think I’ve been warm since I got back 🥶🥶🤪🥂

A quick update for anyone travelling back to uk

The antigen test was taken at IMED (thanks Ange)Torrevieja 2 days before flight (still unsure why Quiron hospital advised it be taken on day of travel??) also for the record the pharmacy on la zenia roundabout does the tests too 

Hi. Is this the pharmacy in the commercial centre, by Consum and Jysk?

Do you know how much they charge for the Antigen test, and whether you have to book an appointment online? If so, how do you go about making the booking please? 

Many thanks for the info

Hi

No don’t know the charge though have read they’re on average around 40€. I rang them in March but no appointment was made as it was bank holiday weekend so not a suitable for the 72 hour timeframe 

Also it was the la Zenia pharmacy I called not the 2 you mention  

Good luck

Hi everyone 

Where is the nearest Antigen test centre to Algorfa?  What price? These tests are expensive enough without added travel costs too
