    This is a bit off-topic, but I want to go to the gym during my spring vac scheme. Up in Manchester, there are gyms for which you can pay for daily/weekly passes. I'm looking online atm and can't really find a gym like this - does anyone have any suggestions in the square mile area?

    Upcoming Vacation Scheme - Project Fin

    For anybody that's completed a seat in Project Finance as part of a vacation scheme, would they have any tips on areas of law to brush up on, prior to my Spring scheme? I am going over contract law, bit by bit, refreshing my memory. Any other suggestions would be welcome!
