E 21/12 Win a TomTom with Times Online

clicky

I'm sorry, its far too early in the morning for me to work out the answer, although technically I think the answer is 1 !!!!;)

What could be better than a fantastic new TomTom One 3RD EDITION to help you navigate your way through the year ahead? This new Satellite Navigation unit has a range of new features including:
- Most accurate maps and unique TomTom Map Share™ technology
- Comprehensive trip guidance features
- Extensive industry leading range of safety features
<!--#include file="m63-article-related-attachements.html"-->- Optional traffic information and other smart extras
The TomTom One 3RD EDITION can recalculate your route, in case you wants to deviate from the one suggested or if you need to avoid a roadblock.
It also comes with uniquely designed safety features so drivers always have direct access to safety and roadside assistance information wherever they go. The ‘Help Me!’ menu includes information such as the way to the nearest hospital, car maintenance information and first aid instructions. Also, to enable the driver to drive in the safest way, fixed safety camera alerts are now included.
To enter the competition to win one of four TomToms just answer this simple question:
As I was driving to St Ives (navigating with my new TomTom One 3rd Edition),
I met a man with seven wives.
And every wife had seven sacks
And every sack had seven cats
And every cat had seven kits.
Kits, cats, sacks, wives
How many were driving to St Ives?

    Of course it's one.
    it's a classic riddle.
    It's BOUGHT (to Buy), not BROUGHT (to bring) AND you cannot be frauded, only DEfrauded.

    Please do not buy animals from a pet store. Visit your local sanctuary or centre and give a good home to an unloved or abandoned animal.

    Must have just happened as it let me enter 20 minutes ago, although for some reason it also asked me to change registration details
