I'd definitely say look at Buzz, Kiss & Pure then. Pretty sure Pure was only £15 off peak when I was looking. Added bonus  if driving to get there pure has free parking as it's not in town centre

Having had a quick look - Pure (in Stratton) is £15.99 a month (+£10 joining fee) off peak & the Gym Group (Greenbridge) is £15.99 a month (+£15 joining fee) off peak.

So, likely to be one of those I guess…

No one warned me that insomnia is an after effect of a General anaesthetic.

I’m listening to Radiohead which usually works. But nothing doing. I can’t get no sleep.

If it’s not gone by Tuesday night you may find me asleep in the Arkells.

All good. On my way car to early to the ground on account of trains being a bit screwed. Probably pop to the glue pot to see how codeine and a pint feels with no gallbladder.

Careful, after a hernia repair around 2010 I mixed codeine with 6 pints of Stella, got a lift with Ralphy to Swindon, met some nice Townend people in the pub, then went home and had an argument with my Dad that resulted in me smashing a pint glass on the kitchen floor and punching a hole in the wall. Very unlike me and I've not argued with my Dad before or since!

Suspected S1 radiculopathy (compressed spinal nerve) which has caused my feet to be agony. Thankfully after 2 weeks of taking it the Amitriptyline is really helping and I can walk properly now with only mild discomfort.

Referred to GWH but may be a long wait for an appointment.

I had a hernia young, I was 20 or 21 I think. Could have been 2006.

Oh wow, that does not sound pleasant at all. Did you injure your back or did it just come on by itself? I just looked up Amitriptyline, the consensus was that it makes you sleepy, glad that's working for you.

Amitriptiline (and codiene) never worked on my when my 3 disks slipped hence why I now have a metal cage round my spine.

I can confirm that its some of THE worst pain and I do feel for you Si.

I haven't injured my back, the only thing that may have started it was watching the F1 movie in 4DX as I was jolted around a fair bit. My back hasn't really been in any pain tbh.

Yes, Amitriptyline makes you sleepy. It's been great as I was awake for most of night in agony before.
