Win an iPad!!!

I would like to win an IPad because I need a second one so I can have calm when the kids are over, no arguments, no fighting....... just calm and quiet

I would like to win an iPad because
For work on the run
Or for gaming fun
With a finger swipe
I can quickly skype
To keep in touch
with grandchildren I love so much
And for reading GRANSNET
An iPad is perfect

I would like to win an ipad because it is awesome and I'm awesome too therefore we should be awesome together!

To Skype with my lovely granddaughters of course ! !

I would like to win an ipad because it gives me access to so many things I can't currently use. It would be great for the ease of carrying - I'm tired of lugging my laptop around!

so I could be up to date and not so old fashioned, I don't even have a mobile phone.

I would like to win an iPad so maybe I will understand what an app is but mostly so I can use the skype service to keep in touch with all my grand kids.

I would like to win an iPad because I'm tired of borrowing my boyfriend's!

My granchildren always argue about whose turn it is to "borrow" Granpa's laptop when they visit. They could have one each.

Up until recently I thought a tablet was something the doctor gave you or that you got from the chemist!

I look after my 3 and 5 year old grandchildren each afternoon and we have lots of fun playing board games, hide and seek, making models, baking, singing, gardening and reading books. But the one thing I can't share with them is technology as my computer is quite old and it takes a long time to load up any programmes, so an i pad would be brilliant. My 5 year old grand daughter tells me they do lots of fun things at school on the i pads and I would love to share in the fun.

I would love to win an iPad because my android tablet will no longer charge it's battery.

I would like to win an Ipad because, memory, identity and place are deeply connected to our sense of person (who we are) and personal history/heritage (where we came from); an Ipad for my grandparents would help us grandchildren help facilitate their; recalling and sharing their memories and also visiting places/friends virtually that they are no longer able to visit due to ill health/disability or the availability of suitable transport/help, therefore regaining some of their independence. Activities we would do together are; accessing local archives so my grandparents could see photographs of their places they experienced as it was in their youth, or places they took holiday's, or using web cameras to talk to friends/relatives far away, or virtual tours of places they have always wanted to visit, or used to visit every day that they can no longer do (walking in the park for instance). Technology is all around us and has so much potential to connect the past, the present and future, however, it can seem frightening/intimidating to the unfamiliar and exacerbate a sense of isolation from the outside world. Therefore, I would like, in this instance, for technology to help reduce the sense/feelings of isolation my grandparents encounter, and with the aid of an Ipad and us grandchildren as their 'Tech guides', help them escape the confines of their health, and with their 'virtual' eyes/ears/legs be more independent and free to; share/re-live memories, participate in simple daily activities we take for granted (travelling), fulfill their dreams of visiting places, and continue to have new experiences of their choice, whenever they choose to and without limits.

Having an iPad would show everyone I'm not past-it yet

I would like to win an iPad because life would be better if granddad could FaceTime our distant grandchildren, not just listen to them.

I would like to win an Ipad because I want my grandchildren to think I am cool

Why would I like to win and iPad? Well, my Grandparents lived nearby when I was young and I didn't need to take a bus, train or plane - I spent time with them nearly every day. Gingersnap sounds like it is the modern day version of 'just popping round to play at Gran's'.
How wonderful that technology like this is bringing all generations closer together - regardless of their miles apart.
Do I want an iPad - YES PLEASE!

I'd like to keep my brain active with new technology, like they say An Apple (ipad) a day keeps the doctor away!

I would like to win an iPad because I can still learn new tricks despite being an old dog!

I could become tech savvy, user friendly and indulge in Internet on the move; thus keeping up to date with 2014 Family life!

I would like to win an Ipad so that I can keep in touch with my 12 year old grandson who lives in Vancouver, BC, Canada.

I Would like to win an iPad because the one I have at the moment is getting old and crotchety like its owner.
