General discussion / transferring money from US - home
January 13, 2015, 03:08:12 PM
Looking at transferring money from the US to home, but obviously want to get the best rate/deal I can.

Aside from doing a wire between banks, has anyone any other experiences? I was looking into TransferWise which seems to be as good a facility as is out there at the minute.

General discussion / workout programs for the gym

TRying to get back into shape, and rather than aimlessly running at the gym with no goal, I'd be keen to try and set program - going about 3 times a week.

So, anyone know any good routines, or links to good links to some standard workout routines for getting back into shape.....I'd like to combine a fair amount of cardio with regular weight based training.

cheers

General discussion / New York accomodation

Apologies for another new york thread.

Lads and Lassies - heading to NY in a couple of weeks for a few days. I know some of the posters on here live in the vicinity, or have in the past so thought I may get some good advice.

Will be staying in Manhattan, but haven't booked anywhere yet. Anyone know any decently priced hotels? Looking online they seem savage dear.....what should I expect to pay for a basic room in a basic hotel?

Additionally, I was looking at the different neigbourhoods to see which may be the coolest to stay in - says the Lower East Side and East Village are pretty cool (actually the word Bohemian was used, but in my experience that can mean anything from homeless to prentious!), and as I've stayed round the Time Square area before I'd be keen for a change and to check out something more that the normal 'time square,central park,empire state etc'.

Any advice greatly appreciated.
