    Thanks for all the suggestions I only have wifi and don't think I have need for anything else
    Thanks for the Tesco suggestion but I live in Harrogate and we don't have a Tesco here Just a couple of small convenience shops
    Sue

    You sure?

    Tesco Express, Knaresborough Road Harrogate North Yorkshire HG2 7HY

    May not be able to see it in-store but Tesco will deliver, to your home etc or the local Express store or Leeds is only about twelve miles away for their big stores.

    Just reporting back I had not got around to buying anything but Santa courtesy of my Son gave me the Hudl 2
    He bought this for his 2 girls last Christmas them last year and he reckons they are a great buy for the money To avoid rows between the girls they bougtht one for their 4 year old this Christmas
    It is fast and a great screen Still trying to work it out I want to put some security on it not sure how to do it I have got a Norton subscription for 3 computers but only using 2 one on the laptop and the other on the desktop I am in my 70's but really enjoy all the technological things my family give me. Thanks to everyone I might have made a different choice but I love this and it is my favourite colour turquoise !

    Your Norton subscription is for Windows PCs, so no good for your Android tablet. Windows apps don't work on Android tablets, just like XBox games won't work on a Playstation. I've got 'Lockout' on my Android devices which you can search for on the Play store, which I find good.
  • Glad that you're sorted out OP. Qihoo 360 Security gets good reviews for AV on android, and better still it's free.

    I don't know what to recommend, but I would advise against the Hudl. Between my mum and I we have had 3 over the past 4 months and they are awful. Take forever to charge, drains the battery really quickly and are really sluggish to use. I have been told the Hudl 2 is great, but that was what I heard before I bought the Hudl and I am so disappointed so I would stay well clear (especially if you don't have Clubcard points to use). Good luck, and when you decide what to get will you post please as I am looking for a new tablet as well.
