I cant tick the square boxes either. Will try different browsers in case that makes a difference.

GooodMythicalMorning · 15/07/2015 02:22

No not making a difference

OriginalHugsy · 15/07/2015 07:00

Done

TheNumberfaker · 15/07/2015 07:24

Just done. Why was 'None' not the default answer for the holidays questions? Bad bad design for that bit!

LittleMissRayOfHope · 15/07/2015 07:52

Same as some others, completed it but when I clicked to submit it just went back to the home page. So no idea if I have submitted it or not?

SweetPeaPods · 15/07/2015 08:00

Done. Like others it jumped about loads on phone so wasn't easy

ASorcererIsAWizardSquared - have added Pagan and will amend your form accordingly
Sorry to those who have had issues with SM - will alert them to this as that's outside our control.
And on the holiday one I have added a comment to leave any blank that you don't do, appreciate it's a monster one but we do want to get as much info as poss on holidays for when we are speaking to holiday companies!

Was hoping the squares would work this morning but nope.

BugritAndTidyup · 15/07/2015 09:39

Weird - I had the opposite experience of most of the posters above in that I was finding the square tick boxes were fine but the circle ones were incredibly slow and frustrating (I'm on a laptop though). When I got to question 54 I was just about ready to give up, left nearly all of them blank as I don't use the sites mentioned and I couldn't stand having to go through and click on every single line.

Done :)

Trottersindependenttraders · 15/07/2015 15:55

Done. Will you be publishing the results? I remember filling it in last time but didn't see the results.

AngelBlue12 · 16/07/2015 07:42

Done

BIWI · 16/07/2015 08:45

Done

Agree about the holiday question - and being asked to detail how much you spend was an impossible question to answer!

Disappointed that Bootcamp wasn't an option on the health/healthy eating question though.

And the household income question was a difficult one - DH and I vary according to what contract he's working on! Sometimes it's him, and sometimes it's me. I ended up having to say 'don't know' for that one!

AuntieMaggie · 16/07/2015 09:50

I also tried doing it on my phone but couldn't check the boxes

BeyondTheWall · 16/07/2015 10:04

Done.

Few comments...

  • Comics is missing from magazines
  • Video sharing suggestions are a bit umm..sexist
  • Yy bootcamp not an option, though i typed it in as 'other'
  • Would appriciate 'unable to work' being an option for employment alongside unemployed, rather than having to tick unemployed as the closest option (especially as i am also technically a student and sahm as well!)

I think that was it Blush

RabidFairy · 16/07/2015 10:45

Done, but like others said the holiday questions were a bit much!

Orangeisthenewbanana · 16/07/2015 21:53

Done.

busymummy3 · 17/07/2015 00:21

Done went through no problem.

barricade · 17/07/2015 00:27

.... "doing it tomorrow!!"

(i.e. in reference to legendary Pepsi-Cola advert from the 90's)

barricade · 17/07/2015 00:49

Actually, just completed it ....

Smile

50-ish questions? 63 to be precise, folks! ...

lubeybooby · 17/07/2015 10:55

is there anywhere we can view data from the previous surveys? always seems like it would be interesting but I can never find it

shortbreadsharon · 17/07/2015 13:17

Sneaky Mumsnet, there are 60ish questions. You and my MIL would get on great you are both very nosy indeed :)
