yeah, it isn't the easiest thing to do, I only went that way when i did, as it was the cheapest.

use sites like kayak.co.uk to find a good deal on flights! and let us know before you book, incase we can find anything cheaper for you!

Oh Thank you, that is very kind! I have some tesco vouchers that I am going to change for air miles. I must ring them up and find out how to do that - it is a good thing I have a couple of months to organise this!:rotfl::rotfl:.

Also sign up to something like Quidco and topcashback too and get cashback on any flights you book. I think I got something like £40 from Quidco for booking through ebookers.
I spent a few hours trawling the various sites for air fares and it was worth it!

Dying to see the Naked Cowboy/girl in Times Square in 17 days!!!
I've been 3 times before and never seen him.

Is there a cross street or notable place he is usually at?

They tend to hang out where broadway and 7th meet, oddly enough the last couple times we have been we saw the naked cowboy on the 1st day and then never again, however we have never seen the naked cowgirl but we did some woman in her 60's playing a guitar with a cowboy hat and a bikini at the same location, no mention of their timetable on either of their sites and I shoudl imagine a lot of it depends on the weather.

Happy hunting

I saw him twice when we was out there. He is next to middle crossing near the nasdaq building. He might be hiding from the cold though lol.

Hi, i went see the Knicks quite a few years ago, and had end courtside seating. I've been to the hockey, up on the 2nd level, and saw plenty, however a hockey rink is bigger than a basketball court.

Cheap tickets, good atmosphere, personally i don't think you can go wrong for a night out!

Thanks for the response - should I buy tickets there or before I go. I get there on 31/3 and game is on 06/04? Thanks!

tricky one.... when i went, it was a spur of the moment decision, and i booked online, and picked up tickets while i was out there. The knicks are probably playing sh*t right now, like normal, but it normally sells out with loads of people getting tickets closer to the time..

it's up to you if you want to risk it, the price of tickets never changes though

Once installed browse the directory, US-New York and add all the cams to Favorites

Done that, but can't find the Earthcam ones from TGI?
