But yeah, it's grand. Completely different supplements. It's like taking bread and cheese in the same day.

For ordering, I use www.nutritionconnection.ie although there are plenty of other options around.

Have a look through this (one of many sites a quick google search will bring up) Creatine Myths & facts

Q: Can I take Creatine and Protein at the same time?

A: Firstly, protein is a food product. If you couldn't take creatine and protein at the same time, then you would have to be a strict vegetarian and still you would end out consuming around 40 grams a day just from normal foods. To top this off, creatine is not much use without a significant protein intake. What is the point of pushing your muscles further than they are used to, if you are not going to provide the amino acids necessary for their repair?
