You can buy them from your GP, unless you have a medical condition which entitles you to have one on the NHS. Phone your surgery and ask, they may need to order one in for you, some surgeries order more in for this reason.
I worked in a surgery for 7 years.

You should go to your G P to get your flu injection and it is free because of your age.

Yes, or your local health department. Some pharmacies also offer flu shots. Anyone can get one unless they are allergic to eggs or some other chemical in them.

Have you asked your doctor if he or she will give you the injection? I am 39 but have asthma and I was given one as a precaution.

Yes, but check to see if your in any of the at risk categories such as asthma sufferers.
Last year I think Boots chemists also did them. (?)
