I would like to win an iPad because it opens up a whole new world, wherever you are.

I would like to win an iPad because I'm rooted to the PC in the corner of my room and I would like to cut those bonds and roam free as nature intended!!

I would like to win an iPad because... my poor android tablet has gone up to the little junk yard in the sky Rip tilly tablet!

I would like to win an iPad because I broke the screen on the one I have got when trying a new Gransnet recipe and I knocked a jar of herbs out of the kitchen unit!
I promise to be careful in future!

Because it is ultimate gadget of convenience!

I would like to win an I-pad
Because at first I thought they were a fad
I didn't invest in the new tech
Thought it would be gone in a flash, in a sec
But now all my grandchildren do is post and tweet
Skyping is the only way we get to face to face meet
So an i-pad would really sort me out
I would no longer have to shout
To get their attention, a mere little ping
As I could talk to them all day via instant messaging!

I would like to win an iPad because my grandchildren live in Greece and I live in England and it would simplify our communications. They like to play games and there are many you can play on an iPad.

I would like to win an ipad so as I can Skype my grandson and see what he has been doing at school. I miss not seeing everyday since they moved. Also I can read my books anywhere I go.

I would like to win an iPad, to keep up with the grandchildren!! I don't want to be left behind in the world of technology. It has been on my wish list for the last couple of years, and I would be able to keep in touch with everyone all of the time if I were lucky enough to win one.

I would like to win an ipad to shop on the internet, browse, watch films - but most of all to keep in touch with my extending family who are spreading far and wide!

I would like to win an ipad because it would fit in my handbag, unlike my husbands laptop which we are always fighting over

kaizen99 Mon 03-Nov-14 20:24:26

I would like to win an iPad because they are so flexible and portable, allowing me to pack it when I go to see the rest of the family.

maci234 Mon 03-Nov-14 20:28:33

I would
Ike to win an iPad because so I can keep up with the kids

mikescoates Mon 03-Nov-14 20:32:32

I'd like to win an iPad because it has an app,
That lets me keep the kiddies busy whilst I take a nap.
Instead of going square-eyed or tormenting my old cat
I can send them on adventures, they'll make their own way back.

I'll have them crafting, photographing, wherever they may be,
And once they've completed quests I've set they can send pictures to me.
I don't even have to be there, I can do this using WAP,
So thanks for the chance to rest a bit, Gransnet and Gingersnap.

As I am nearly housebound it would help keep me upto date with what's going on around me. This would be the Perfect Pick-me up for me.

jimsnan Mon 03-Nov-14 21:04:42

I would like to win an iPad, as it would put technology at my fingertips.

Madge51 Mon 03-Nov-14 21:30:55

I would like to win an ipad because it would help me avoid sending gobbledegook emails & text because my eyesight is poor & the arthritic fingers are too puffy to use my iphone. Some of the mistakes have been hilariously funny but when it happens frequently it worries the family.ha ha (just remembering some)

phillym Mon 03-Nov-14 21:44:00

I would like to win an ipad because I could talk to my grandchildren over facetime and read them a bedtime story even when I'm not with them!

galleyman Mon 03-Nov-14 23:17:40

I would like to win an iPad because...I would like to try and catch up, quietly, with my daughters and grandchildren.

chrisma232 Mon 03-Nov-14 23:47:03

I would like to win because it would be great to have a smaller,more mobile device instead of the pc where sitting at can get painful.
