The grandchildren swipe and swish their phones,
it's smart phones all round when they're at home.

Well granny would like to show them you bet -
That there's technical life in this old dog yet!

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.

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!

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)

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.

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.

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!

janie123 Mon 03-Nov-14 15:57:20

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.

faze2305 Mon 03-Nov-14 11:07:45

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 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.
