Hi folks- I'll be trying to get tickets for as many of the home finals games as possible, and was wondering if anyone had any tips for doing so. Last year it wasn't too tough but I think GC being a small team and freo being much bigger this year might make it harder.

I'm not actually a member myself (I share tickets with a group but defer to them for finals), but was wondering if it's a good idea to get a membership (e.g a small one that gives any kind of priority) just for these tickets? Or have I left it too late and should just try and get public ones like last year? Thanks!

The short version is late last year I was waking up vomiting every day, had a lot of nausea/reflux, and lost a lot of weight. Did a few tests, couldn’t find anything, started PPIs, which helped with the worst of it. A few months later I stopped them and had an endoscopy, also didn’t find anything. About 4 months after that I got another endoscopy (and colonoscopy) that didn’t find anything strange EXCEPT this one found a HH as well (3cm). Still don’t know what the cause was, so I want to hear what happened to everyone else here to see if they had any ideas/anyone had a similar story.

More details if you want them: Initially I was sure it was h.pylori, but did a blood test, some stool tests, and 2 biopsies (part of the scopes) and all were negative. I’m a healthy weight, don’t smoke or drink. I and all the doctors and gastroenterologists I’ve seen have no clue at all what could have cause this. I now have the HH symptoms as well as whatever I initially had as that hasn’t gone away either. Main symptoms (pre hernia) are the reflux like I mentioned/morning vomiting, weight loss, low appetite and thirst. Sex drive also feels lower/diminished. I don't think any of this is stress/anxiety/mental as I've been way more stressed in other times of my life and never struggled. I'm 28 yo.

I honestly think I could somewhat manage the hernia symptoms on their own (for me the main one is having an unpleasant 'full' feeling in the back of the throat) but still having whatever it is that caused the hernia still lurking is driving me insane. I’d be happy to hear any recommendations for other tests, e.g last gastroenterologist visit mentioned getting my thyroid checked and even brain scanned lol. I did resume PPIs again recently due to the reflux starting to come back but otherwise not on any medication.

Had been procrastinating buying one of the stealth jumpers and went to get one this morning only to realise all the ones approximating my size are gone!

Along with this all the crewnecks, scarves, hats etc are fully gone. I'm not too familiar with the store since I've only used it once before ages ago, but does anyone know if they're likely to restock these/add more at any point? If so, will they announce it or should I just refresh it as much as I can over the next week or so? Cheers

For me it has to be S11E6: 'Identify the contents of the battered items in this fish and chips order.'

The task (and Alex) insists that everyone "really" stamp on one of the battered items. Doesn't change much besides being messier.

Hi all, just a question around the timing of the 2nd bowel prep fluid dosage. I have plenvu which says take 1 at 7pm the night before, and 1 at 4am the morning of. (didn't talk to doc about this, got info in the mail)

Question is my admission is 9am, and these instructions are generic morning ones for a 7am procedure. I'm wondering if I can push the second dose back by an hour or so- assuming it takes an hour to drink and an hour after that to get it all out, I feel like I could have it at 5-5:30am instead. I don't want to be shitting myself on the way in obviously, but I also feel like a 3 hour buffer from the time I start is plenty and I'd rather get 1 extra hour of sleep if possible.

Or am I just stupid and should go with 4am no matter what? Thanks!
