I would love to skype my grandchildren, as they live 300 miles away I dont get to see them nearly enough.

So I can keep up with this super-fast moving world!

I would love to win an iPad as my husband is forever "borrowing" mine, so it would stop the moaning !

I would like to win an iPad so that I can give it to my neighbour who hasn't got one, but needs one and has always wanted one! He has helped me to overcome some very difficult circumstances and is always there when I need help. He never complains and helps other people too! He definitely deserves to be rewarded and stuggles to play games on his mobile because the screen is too small!

so i can talk to friends and family over in canada and sydney and keep in touch with grandkids who i dont see often. i will be able to see pictures and videos of them easily and use facetime to talk to them. i would also like it to keep my brain active as struggle with seeing puzzle books and paper but would be able to see them on ipad.you can also get jugsaw apps as i can no longer pick up puzzle pieces or see tiny designs on pieces

I would like to win an iPad because it is amazing and I don't have one and it would be lovely to share with my family

I would like to win an iPad because i could use it to keep in touch with my nephews and nieces in New Zealand using FaceTime.

I would like to win an ipad so that i browse in comfort instead of sitting in front of a screen. Relaxed on the sofa or in bed.

I would like to win the ipad because my PC is on the blink and it would make accessing the internet so much easier, I have to wait for ages at the moment for my PC to start, half the time I give up!

I would love to win an ipad so that I can play games with my lovely (nearly) two year old twin grandchildren and also talk to them on Skype.

I would like to win an iPad because...it is important for us oldies to keep up with technology and be able to keep in touch with and play modern stuff with the little ones :-)

priorslee Mon 27-Oct-14 22:26:12

it would mean I wouldn't have to hassle my OH to get off the laptop!

I would like to win an IPad because my desktop pc is so old its clockwork, my grandchildren think it is hilarious, so I would like to show them how "with it" their Gran is with a new IPad thlwink

I would like to win an ipad so I can keep in touch with my grandchildren even when I am out and about, as it will be light enough to carry in my handbag. It will be a good excuse to sit in cafes and use their wifi, and scare all the hip youngsters with my mastery of the new technology grin

I'd like to win an iPad as everyone seems to have one except me!

I would like to win an ipad so I could download the Cars game and show my grandson how good nanny is at playing his game.......or not x

I would like to win an ipad to keep the grandkids happy

I would like to win an ipad because Skype would make it easy to get in touch with the family and I could do a bit of sneaky window shopping curled up on the sofa in front of the TV!

I would like to win an iPad to give to my grandson. We used to live very near to one another and had great fun, but now he's moved 80+ miles away I try to use technology to bridge the gap, so he uses his mum's iPhone to skype and face time and I set him fun challenges (and sometimes he sets them for me - often using photo and film exchanges). With an iPhone each we could be a little more adventurous.

Oops - meant an iPad each of course! Duh!

I would like to win an iPad because all my grandchildren tell me about these fab apps that let you do almost everything but clean your house. It would be lovely be have everything like music, photos etc. organised on it plus use it to keep in touch with family when I can't visit them. Looks a super gadget

I don't have one and I would like to see what the fuss is about!

I would like to win an iPad because we've never owned one before, and for travel this would be very easy to carry and would not add much extra weight.
