    going off a 600 x 600 mm ceiling tile, far wall is approx 4500mm wide
    average office height 2400mm
    window looks about 2750mm wide

    sticky notes 72 x 72 mm = 5184 sq mm

    1 wall 4500 x 2400 / 5184 = 2083 = 4166
    1 wall 2750 x 2400 / 5184 = 1273 = 2546
    ceiling and floor 2750 x 4500 / 5184 = 2387 x 2 = 4774

    = at least 9400 plus extra for the table etc

    remember these are just guesses !!!!!!

    I've had to revise after seeing someone ask the question "do they cover the whole room or just the bit that we can see?" and the reply "it's basically what you see", so it's only 2 walls, the ceiling and floor

    According to the T&Cs "Participation is limited to one entry per personal Facebook account and per valid E-Mail address per day for the duration of the Sweepstakes “Win a MacBook Air”

    So it's a daily entry
    I woke up last night to find the ghost of Gloria Gaynor standing at the foot of my bed.
    At first I was afraid.......then I was petrified.…
