[bomondus]

Well, I'm all booked with the missus from 1st-7th December inclusive (staying in Time Square)...

After a tough year of work, house moves and other things, we need a break... and I'm well up for it... so much I've just booked two seats at the New York City Ballet to watch GEORGE BALANCHINE'S THE NUTCRACKER... can't wait...



We went to NY in November 2006 when I ran the NY Marathon (whupping Mr Armstrongs arse I might add[thumbup])... for my honeymoon and loved the place... really did and always wanted to come back around Xmas time when it's colder and more Xmassy...

So, plan is, beers in some blues bars (any recomendations?)... lots of eating... lots of running around central park as I've got a couple of big races when I come back and a 10 mile race I need to be in around 56 minute shape...

So, anyone reccomend bars/eateries/things to do? We did the Empire State, and Staten Island... and a few other things, the normal tourist stuff.... anything recomended from people who live in the area or have been there before?
