And no need to use a gym on the trip, cos you will have walked about 3 miles while at the airport too !!! 
But wow are the baths, indeed the whole Cabanas 'suites' space, in The Wing just the very very best ! Marvellous.

It looks like the glory days of lounge builiding are over. I credit VS for starting the trend, with their Clubhouse (trashy but nice).

Assuming you are carrying your card....
OK, recent experiences with the QF WP card are:
Madrid IB fine, but remember there is a shower but you have to ask for the key
Lisbon, you are OK with QFFF but it is not a business class lounge but a BAEC only
Frankfurt, fine and most of Germany, but some are BAEC and not business lounges etc
Italy, OK
BRU, OK even when using LGW on the BA SN Brussels code share
CDG No no no no, do not even think about it no no no
AMS, OK
ARN, OK
HEL, OK
CPH, OK
LHR, LGW (if you have the card....), MAN, GLA, EDI all OK. Could not find the lounge in Barra and Benbecula but Traveloguy may have more info
not been to ZRH and GVA recently with time to use the lounges
Italy, usually OK, but it is Italy. I was denied Milan Malpensa a few times due to loungedragonitis with no card....
JNB, OK
ACC, denied
LOS, OK
DEL, OK
HKG, SIN, BKK covered elsewhere
DFW did the other week, but BA flight so BA only and not AA lounge
MIA, OK and generally all the other AA lounges I have not had a problem, where they exist, so SEA, LAX, SFO, ORD, and all east coast entry points have been fine. Did not use MCO, never been in through Tampa but all other BA points of entry I have on the coast.
Bogota was OK, but you needed card and boarding card.
Santiago de Chile, OK.
Sao Paulo, OK.
You should have Australia and NZ covered! (and I did not get a special invite to the Hamilton Island facility..... )
For all of the BA network, it is interesting to note that not even BA Executive Club could answer the question as to where QFs were allowed in or not. I asked specially after being denied CDG and ACC.
Traveloguy might be able to add the odd TIP here and there on the BA network.
CGK anyone as I might be there shortly using CX?
