Advantages: Safe, Friendly, Modern Place To Get Fit Disadvantages: Some may find it expensive
...My partner & me were some of the first members to join the newly opened health club & after 2 years have decided to move on.
Greens is part of the De-vere group of hotels, they now have several health clubs throughout the UK and are expanding everyday.
This club has everything you could possibly want in a health club.
Fully equipped CV room complete with treadmills, bikes, steppers & cross trainers, all liked to six wide (and I mean wide) screen TV's showing all the regular channels plus there is a selection of the popular radio channels, all accessed via a small control panel on the equipment into which you plug you're earphones.
There is a fully equipped gym, with resistance equipment & free weights.
There is also a mini gym which contains a little of everything for the more shy among us.
Tucked away in the corner...

...I joined Greens having recently changed job, with a Greens Fitness Centre located opposite my new office. Joining seemed a good alternative to a daily stop at Subway for a sandwich and i promptly inquired about fees, facilities and opening hours.
I was offered a couple of packages, one of which was the off peak annual membership i purchased. I think, but i'm not a 100% sure that I got a corporate discount.
FEES
Off peak member ship cost £35 a month, with an initial £15 deposit for the security band that gets you in and out of the building, lockers etc. This gives me full access for the following times:
- Monday to Friday - 0630 to 1700hrs
- Saturday & Sunday - All day
Basically i can't use the gym after 5pm during the working week.
Full membership was £45 giving access at all times.

Advantages: none to speak of Disadvantages: it's green!
...General Information
---------------------------
At first when I saw this shirt in one of the European games I thought that it was quite nice, I thought it was a mix of light grey and black and that i might even be tempted to buy it. Then I saw it in the shops and realised that my television picture/colour was giving me totally the wrong impression! It was in fact green. To use the official term, "cypress green". Since when I ask has cypress green been associated with Newcastle United Football Club? (Although to be fair I wouldn't have associated Cranberry with Arsenal till this season).
The Shirt Itself
--------------------
The shirt has the same quirky styling of the other shirts of this season, with strange non-collar and odd seaming. I have yet to see how the numbers perform under wear as nobody seems to wear this shirt...

I used this product as I use the gym regularly, Yes the price is high at about £30, but if you buy it from the maximuscle website you can receive a free gift of either a water bottle or a protein shaker which both are very useful especially if your... more

The next installment: Green Flag took the van away to a garage (yesterday afternoon) for an estimate on repair costs. They explained that it was too late to have a thorough look at it so they would do it in the morning.... more
