    I had to pose with my new iPad and the manager of the local branch of the Skipton Building Society. Someone that I know via email only said he saw the photo in his monthly Skipton Building Society newsletter.

    When I won tickets to take my little boy to see McFly at the Bath Literature Festival they asked for photos, so I sent them a photo of my little boy meeting the guys at the book signing. They did use it on both Facebook and Twitter I seem to remember.

    Oh God yes, and I was absolutely mortified as I don't have my photo taken ever, won a hamper and £500. I had the pleasure of a 2 hour photo shoot down the local harbour with a lovely young man dressed as a giant pie! This was then posted on Facebook and I also got half a page in our local newspaper! Mortifying but great fun xxx

    ETA one of the photo's included a giant cardboard cheque
    I love this board, have "virtually" met so many lovely people, people I am honoured to count as friends.
