Sorry if this is in the wrong forum.. I have just gone to book my usual same day test at the charing cross hospital and I have just found out that they have stopped it due to staff shortages. Does anyone know where else they do same day free testing? Everywhere I have tried want about 60 quid.. Thanks in advance.

Yes it is the wrong forum, well spotted.

Just intrigued.... why do you think anyone should get this service done for free Dave?

A test IS free, the certificate for employment in films is what is costing him

Hi Scott,
I have the same problem now and again in Birmingham(staff Shortages)but never in the states But i pay for mine but it still takes ages to sort out.(but of course i do have nearly every test done under the sun)(hope you busy,if i hear of any more companies who need males i let you know in the future,i just got interest from a production company who deals with a lot of Spanking and domination stuff but there no sex involved which looks interesting so i might put myself forward for that but its sort of B/G but more role play thasn anything)

To the Person Who called Fingers on this Forum:
Don't be a twat mate,Scott Was asking a simple question and no Scott hasn't posted it in the wrong forum,its a adult related question.Its plonkers like you he doesn't need pestering him and giving/telling him what to do.(it is not a off topic subject)
(by the way Scott a good mate of mine).

But I think the question is valid, why should the NHS/taxpayer subsidise someone who wants a medical test so they can take part in a profit making venture?

Why not pay for it if it is a business expense?

Carl & Scott,
The boys are entirely correct in that it is your responsibility to provide the appropriate certs at your own expense.

I have never had a problem with girls when I have sent them to a clinic at which they paid the ?60-70.

Thre NHS has enough problems without catering to the likes of us who make money from sex and merely need a free convenience.

Sorry lads, you are in error.

Just would like to point out that I never insisted I was entitled to the free cert, I was just enquring as I normally got it for free. Would like to make that clear and sorry for any mix up caused.

Does it matter if Scott is a good mate of yours or not? Do we bow down as a result of your friendship??
Er...Magoo is a mate of mine...doesn't really hold any water, does it Carl.
At the end of the day, if he is making a profit from his ventures, he should pay for the test.
I don't see how this is on topic at all! I'm going by the FAQ here.

I also agree that the NHS is stretched enough as it is.
